TriStar has signed a deal with the Jim Henson Company to make a film that will be a new version of the cult classic 1986 movie Labyrinth — a movie many David Bowie fans have recently been revisiting in the wake of the music icon's death. The new version will be "a sequel of sorts" rather than a remake, reports Rolling Stone. Guardians of the Galaxy co-writer Nicole Perlman has been tapped to write the new script.

Weezer seem as surprised as anyone that someone actually bought the $25,000 super-duper-deluxe version of their forthcoming album — a purchase that's billed as including a Greyhound trip to the Galapogos to birdwatch with frontman Rivers Cuomo.

"That's like doing two yo-yos at once." (Rolling Stone)
