Colin Firth and wife Livia rock the red carpet in Venice

After a day full of promotion, Colin Firth and his stunning wife Livia walked the red carpet the for Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy premiere during the 68th Venice International Film Festival at the Palazzo del Cinema on Monday, September 5th, 2011 in Venice, Italy. Joining the Firth’s were his co-stars Gary Oldman and wife Alexandra Edenborough, John Hurt who was accompanied by his wife Ann Rees Meyers, Mark Strong and his wife Liza Marshall, and Benedict Cumberbatch.

Set in the 1970s, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy finds George Smiley (Oldman), a recently retired MI6 agent, doing his best to adjust to a life outside the secret service. However, when a disgraced agent reappears with information concerning a mole at the heart of the Circus, Smiley is drawn back into the murky field of espionage.

Tasked with investigating which of his trusted former colleagues has chosen to betray him and their country, Smiley narrows his search to four suspects – all experienced, urbane, successful agents – but past histories, rivalries and friendships make it far from easy to pinpoint the man who is eating away at the heart of the British establishment.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is set for a US release on December 9th, 2011.

I cannot believe how BIG Knox and Vivienne are!! I got so used to seeing them being carried around like babies that now that they are walking, it’s just unbelievable!!

Busy parents Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt took their kiddies to watch the Smurfs on the big screen at the Odeon Cinema in Richmond, London, UK on Sunday, September 4th, 2011. The group included 6-year-old Zahara, 5-year-old Shiloh, twins Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline– 3-years-old, and an extremely shy Pax, who shielded his face from the prying lenses.

The Jolie-Pitt’s have been spending a lot of time in Europe while Brad shoots the zombie film, World War X.

Jared Leto tries to stay incognito under a hat

No matter the size of the hat you wear Mr. Jared Leto, there is no way you can hide that pretty face of yours! 39-year-old Leto was photographed leaving the Chilli Cook-Off with a few friends (one of which looks like Balthazar Getty, but I couldn’t confirm!) on Saturday, September 3rd, 2011 in Malibu, California.

Looking hot in an all black ensemble, the Mr. Nobody star attempted to hide his face from cameras by hiding under his fedora.

Was anyone else pissed off that 30 Seconds to Mars lost at the MTV Video Music Awards last weekend? Jared and his bandmates Shannon Leto and Tom Milicevic earned the nominations in three categories for their video, Hurricane.

The Inbetweeners Movie getting a US release date?

I’ve been seriously peeved about hearing how amazing The InBetweeners Movie is since there had been no plans to release it in the United States. All I had were hopes and dreams that when I returned to London for the holidays in December I’d be lucky enough to snag it on DVD.

But a new article has given me hope that Jay (James Buckley), Neal (Blake Harrison), Will (Simon Bird) and Simon (Joe Thomas) may be crossing the pond after all!

A source at film sales company IM Global said: “The movie has been doing extremely well in the UK and we are very pleased with the results.

“The sales team is currently in discussions with US distributors regarding this film.”

The film picks up after the boys have graduated high school and are looking to do a little celebrating. They head off on holiday to Malia, Crete where they will no doubt find non-stop parties and hot ladies!

Check out the official movie trailer below:
