A report that Tom Cruise was injured in Hollywood on Oscars Sunday has yet to be confirmed.

The report had Cruise injured slightly in a motorcycle accident when he tried to avoid colliding with a car outside a restaurant in Los Angeles.

The Knight and Day star, 47, was noticeably absent from the Academy Awards ceremony playing out in Hollywood.

But according to one website, Gossip Cop, sources close to the star have confirmed the reports are false. The source of the confirmation was clarified as a rep for his wife, Katie Holmes. Cruise’s representative could not be reached, the website reports.

According to a report carried in the New York Daily News, Cruise was forced to veer his red Ducati after an SUV ran a stop sign, causing his bike to spin out of control. The newspaper traced the report to HollywoodLife.com.

‘It was like a scene from Mission Impossible,’ a witness was quoted as saying.

The report claims Cruise struggled to his feet and appeared to limp slightly. Five people ran to help him. Cruise then sat outside KOI Restaurant on La Cienega Boulevard and made at least two phone calls as he waited for paramedics to arrive, witnesses said.

It has been three years ago that we first heard of Tom Cruise and Ben Stiller teaming for “The Hardy Men” comedy, based on the literary detective brothers The Hardy Boys.

Writer Simon Kinberg (X-Men: The Last Stand, Sherlock Holmes) and director Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum) have been attached for years, but according to Levy, very little progress has been made. There isn’t even a storyline in place.

“Developing a movie for a movie star is hard. Developing a movie for two movie stars is a very, very challenging enterprise,” he explained. “The bull’s eye is small and the tone has to be exactly right. So we are still working on it.”

The film adaptation would explore the reunion of the estranged, grown-up brothers, who work together to solve a new mystery.

Oranges is a somewhat kinky (Think American Beauty) script built around an older man who has an affair with the daughter of friends.

Doesn’t sound like prime Hugh Laurie material, but the veteran comic actor, having come into his own with TV’s House, may want to flex his acting muscles and take a swipe at a big screen career, something that’s evaded him.

The LAT Times 24 Frames blog says that Leighton Meester and Mila Kunis are in talks to play the female lead.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith hosted a special Nobel Peace Prize concert in Oslo, Norway Friday, December 11. Bringing their children along for the celebration, which included an acceptance speech from Barack Obama, the Smith’s shared the stage with Willow and Jaden. Wyclef Jean, Natasha Bedingfield and Luis Fonsi also took part in the concert.

Katie Holmes was photographed bottle-feeding daughter Suri on the New York set of her new movie, The Romantics.

She is 3 years old and still on the bottle. What three year old is on the bottle still?

“She should have been weaned off the bottle by the time she was one year old,” Dr. Jennifer Shu, a pediatrician and co-author of Food Fights, tells Usmagazine.com. “By the time kids are nine months old, they have the physical development and mouth coordination necessary to be able to drink out of a sippy cup or a cup with straw. That development comes pretty early.”

Will Smith praised “fantastic” Barack Obama for his Nobel Peace Prize – and joked he is going to play him in a film because they both have big ears.

The actor, along with wife Jada Pinkett Smith, are long-time supporters of the US president and flew to Oslo to witness him picking up the honour.

He said he could not miss the ceremony. “It’s a fantastic historical event,” Smith said.

“Barack Obama as a person is a fantastic individual but ‘Barack Obama’ as an idea marks an evolutionary flashpoint for humanity.

“So it’s something we absolutely positively had to be a part of.”

And he joked about Obama’s comments that he loves the idea of Smith playing him in a film.

“Now that I can do,” he said. “I’ve got the ears – that’s what it is. Americans historically have been attracted to the ear. You know – Abraham Lincoln, Goofy, Mickey Mouse!”

He added that small ears don’t have the same appeal. “The chicks don’t dig that,” he said, laughing.

Cameron Diaz is reuniting with her Vanilla Sky costar Tom Cruise for a new Hollywood blockbuster, according to reports.

The pair — who first shared the screen in the 2001 film — have teamed up again in a new untitled movie project with Walk The Line director James Mangold.

“Cameron plays a woman on a blind date who ends up being embroiled in a dramatic adventure with Cruise, who portrays a top US spy,” a source told Britain’s Daily Express newspaper.

It looks like Will Smith is bringing “super” back — to the big screen.

Smith will reprise his role as the drunken-turned-revived superhero John Hancock in “Hancock 2,” it has been announced.

While plot details are being kept under wraps, the sequel is expected to dive deeper into the world of the immortal superheroes, played by Smith and Charlize Theron in the first movie.

According to The Hollywood reporter, “The Shield” writers Adam Fierro and Glen Marzara will pen the script, marking the feature film writing debut for both.

“Hancock” helper Peter Berg will once again take on directing duties.

In addition, both Smith and Berg will oversee the new script.

Before Jada Pinkett Smith took the role of producer and star of TNT’s “HawthoRNe,” she made sure her family was fine with her being away from her mother and wife duties during filming.

Pinkett Smith plays a single mom and a hospital’s chief nurse on the medical show, which debuts Tuesday night on cable’s TNT Network, which is owned by the parent company of CNN.

“I sat down with kids and my husband and I really asked their permission,” she said. “I said ‘Listen, there was this show I’d love to do and it will be three months that you might not see Mommy a lot.’ And they’re looking at me like ‘Really? What does that mean?’”

It meant that on weekdays Will would get Willow, 8, and Jaden, 11, out of bed each morning, tuck them in at night and take care of them in-between.

“So they get to eat chocolate for breakfast and go to bed whenever they feel like it for those three months while I’m working,” Pinkett Smith said. “So, it works out, and they know that the rest of the year, I’m off.”

Not all the magic in Hogwarts could save Rupert Grint from catching the dreaded swine flu.

The Harry Potter star, who plays Harry’s best friend Ron Weasley, is recovering from a mild case of the illness, according to the BBC.

But Grint’s doctor confirmed that he is no longer contagious, and the wizard-in-training’s publicist says the actor is back at work on the set of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
