If things had gone as planned, Leonardo DiCaprio would have been "The Good Shepherd."

It was recently revealed by the film's director that Leonardo was originally chosen to star in "The Good Shepherd." However, problems arose and schedule conflicts forced the green-conscious actor to drop out of the movie. Then with no time to lose, Matt Damon was re-cast in the role.

The Rolling Stone have cancelled another concert due to Mick Jagger's sore throat.

The rock legends - who played at New York's Beacon Theatre on Sunday night as part of former US president Bill Clinton's 60th birthday celebrations - were due to play an exclusive show at the same venue tonight.

With his bulletproof vest on and a face that screamed "serious business," Matt Damon joined the police to prepare for his new movie "The Departed." The Oscar-winning actor, who plays a mobster who infiltrates the police department as an informer, admits going on raids with the Boston police wasn't his first brush with the law.

Jack Nicholson wanted to get down and dirty in his new movie. The legendary actor convinced director Martin Scorsese to include a three-in-a-bed sex scene - featuring himself, two girls and a sex toy.

Nicholson, famous for his womanizing ways, plays Mafia gang leader Frank Costello in "The Departed" and was insistent the movie, as well having scenes of extreme violence, included details of the maniacal character's sex life. The "As Good As It Gets" star was also very specific as to how explicit the sequence should be.
