Producer Rob Thomas told E! News that after his new series “Cupid” airing on ABC has been cut down from 13 episodes to 8, he’ll have more time to work on the “Veronica Mars” movie script.
“What that means for me is that I have a couple of months to write the Veronica Mars movie,” Thomas said to E! News. “I suddenly find myself with enough time to write that script. That’s the next project.”
Rumours had been flying that the movie would show Veronica Mars solving crimes while in college. Thomas set the record straight to E! News, “I think it would open just days before Hearst College graduation, so Veronica would be at the end of her college career.”
Although the cast for the movie has not been confirmed, Thomas hopes the original cast will sign on, “I’ve talked to Jason Dohring, I’ve talked to Enrico Colantoni and I’ve talked to Kristen [Bell], obviously. I know that Kristen wants to do it. I want to do it”.

Kristen Bell, Kristin Davis and Malin Akerman are the latest cast additions to the Jon Favreau-penned comedy “Couples Retreat.”
The Universal movie follows four couples who take part in couples therapy at a tropical island resort, with some participants being more willing than others.
The men will be played by Jason Bateman (paired up with Bell), Favreau (with Davis), Vince Vaughn (with Akerman) and Faizon Love.
Former child actor-turned-producer Peter Billingsley is directing the project, which will film in Bora Bora and Los Angeles.
Bell, who shot to fame as TV’s “Veronica Mars,” currently has a recurring role on NBC’s “Heroes.” She recently appeared on the big screen in the comedy “Forgetting Sarah Marshall.”
Davis is coming off the box-office success of the “Sex and the City” movie, where she reprised her role as Charlotte.
Akerman appeared in “27 Dresses” and will next appear in the film adaptation of the “Watchmen” graphic novel series, as well as the romantic comedy “The Proposal.”
It’s a good thing Kristen Bell has a good sense of humour.
There appears to be a huge error in the extended sex scene that appears on the “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” DVD, in which the blur tool is mistakenly in the wrong place. While the blur is supposed to be covering Bell’s breast, it is moved too far to the left, covering part of her arm instead.
Luckily, Bell was wearing “pasties” to cover up her assets. But that doesn’t mean fans won’t enjoy seeing just a little bit more of her that they weren’t supposed to see.
Forget Sarah Marshall – it’s all about Russell Brand.
A sequel to Jason Segal’s hit comedy is in the works, which would centre around Brand’s obnoxious rock star character, Aldous Snow.
UK website Chortle reports that Segal and Sarah Marshall herself, Kristen Bell, have been approached but nothing has been confirmed. Jonah Hill, however, would be back, “a wet-behind-the-ears insurance adjuster instructed to ensure Brand’s wildman gets to a gig.”
Prince and “Veronica Mars” star Kristen Bell have been voted “World’s Sexiest Vegetarians” in PETA’s annual online poll. According to the animal rights group, more than 40,000 people cast their votes on PETA’s website, GoVeg.com.
Prince, 47, is a strict vegan. He even lashed out against the wool industry in the liner notes of his 1999 album, “Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic.” As for Bell, her pets played a big role in the conversion to vegetarianism.
“I have always been an animal lover,” she told PETA. “I had a hard time disassociating the animals I cuddled with ? dogs and cats, for example ? from the animals on my plate.”
Runners-up in the poll included Natalie Portman, Joaquin Phoenix and Canada’s own J.D. Fortune.
