Female Employee Yvonne Hiller Kills Two In Kraft Shooting
In a sad and surprising reversal of gender roles , a disgruntled woman opened fire at a Kraft factory in Philadelphia last night , killing two workers and wounding two others .
The shooting happened moments after the employee , <m> Yvonne Hiller </m> , was suspended from her job at Kraft , where she ’ d worked for 15 years , the Daily News reports .
After being escorted from the snack plant , she re - entered 10 minutes later with a handgun .
About 100 people were in the building when she began shooting .
Hiller was taken into custody after a standoff with the SWAT team .
A Kraft representative confirmed Hiller is now in police custody and that one of the wounded employees is in the hospital .
“ This is a sad time for the Kraft Foods family , ” a statement reads .
“ We are working closely with the authorities as they investigate this situation , and our facility is closed until further notice . ”
Unfortunately , the most surprising aspect of this incident is the shooter ’ s gender .
Women shooters are rare but may be on the rise .
In February , a woman opened fire at the University of Alabama , killing three and injuring several others .
Reportedly , she was a professor whose tenure had been denied .
Two years ago , a female college student committed a shooting at a Louisiana college . |

Now , it seems , a battle is going on between a <m> studio </m> saying there 's no news to report and an entertainment magazine claiming Chris Weitz is getting behind the `` Twilight '' steering wheel .
`` There will be a new director atop the 'Twilight ' franchise : and he 'll be a man , '' Entertainment Weekly 's `` Hollywood Insider '' is reporting .
`` Sources tell EW.com that Summit Entertainment is about to hire Chris Weitz ( 'The Golden Compass ' ) as the shepherd for 'New Moon , ' the second installment of Stephenie Meyer 's best-selling 'Twilight ' series . ''
Although Weitz was indeed offered the high-profile gig , the `` American Pie '' filmmaker has spent much of the week contemplating his participation .
According to `` Twilight '' studio Summit Entertainment , the deal remains unconsummated .
`` No , it is not official , '' a studio representative told MTV News on Thursday evening ( December 11 ) .
`` We are not confirming anything at this point .
He is not signed on as the director . ''
`` We are not confirming , '' echoed a second representative .
Whether EW is hearing incorrectly from their sources or the studio is just biding time until it can make a proper announcement , this much seems certain : Catherine Hardwicke is moving on to future projects that will not involve teenage vampires , and a man is likely to take her place .
Twilighters have spent much of the week arguing with each other - and attempting to form protests and letter-writing campaigns - while debating whether they should speak out against the changes to their beloved franchise .
Whether they 'll warm to Weitz is anyone 's guess , but at least the filmmaker can always take solace in the fact that the fanbase similarly rebelled against Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson when they originally signed up for the film that would make them superstars . |

Now , it seems , a battle is going on between a studio saying there 's no news to <m> report </m> and an entertainment magazine claiming Chris Weitz is getting behind the `` Twilight '' steering wheel .
`` There will be a new director atop the 'Twilight ' franchise : and he 'll be a man , '' Entertainment Weekly 's `` Hollywood Insider '' is reporting .
`` Sources tell EW.com that Summit Entertainment is about to hire Chris Weitz ( 'The Golden Compass ' ) as the shepherd for 'New Moon , ' the second installment of Stephenie Meyer 's best-selling 'Twilight ' series . ''
Although Weitz was indeed offered the high-profile gig , the `` American Pie '' filmmaker has spent much of the week contemplating his participation .
According to `` Twilight '' studio Summit Entertainment , the deal remains unconsummated .
`` No , it is not official , '' a studio representative told MTV News on Thursday evening ( December 11 ) .
`` We are not confirming anything at this point .
He is not signed on as the director . ''
`` We are not confirming , '' echoed a second representative .
Whether EW is hearing incorrectly from their sources or the studio is just biding time until it can make a proper announcement , this much seems certain : Catherine Hardwicke is moving on to future projects that will not involve teenage vampires , and a man is likely to take her place .

The Hollywood Reporter says Ross is in negotiations with Lionsgate to return as director for the sequel , Catching Fire - - and the deal likely hinges on money .
THR says Ross , a seasoned director , accepted a relatively low $3 million salary for directing ( and co - writing ) The Hunger Games , but is asking for a significant raise for Catching Fire .
Despite THR's article , which paints negotiations as tense , Ross has spoken very confidently about his involvement in Catching Fire - - even mentioning casting ideas and filming plans - - and it seems likely he will officially be signed on as director .
Meanwhile , the film's main stars , including Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , and Liam Hemsworth , are all signed on for the rest of the movies in the series .
Several additional new characters will need to be cast before Catching Fire can begin filming later this year , however . |

Director Gary Ross Still in Negotiations for HUNGER GAMES Sequel , CATCHING FIRE ; Release Date May Be in Jeopardy
Posted 1 year , 160 days ago [ downloaded on 2 October 2013 ]
As I said many times in my review , Gary Ross ‘ direction was the strongest element of The Hunger Games .
But for Lionsgate , the movie ’ s ability to make a crazy amount of money was the strongest element of The Hunger Games .
Now , <m> THR </m> is reporting that Ross and the studio are locked in tense negotiations over his return to direct the sequel , Catching Fire .
Lead actors Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , and Liam Hemsworth are already signed for Catching Fire ( and I imaging they ’ re also signed for the third installment , Mockingjay ) , but Ross doesn ’ t have a deal in place .
He was paid $3 million for co - writing and directing the film plus 5 percent on the back - end .
Unsurprisingly , he would like a raise on the sequel .
Hit the jump for more including why Catching Fire might not make its November 22 , 2013 release date .
According to THR , negotiations on the first film were tough because Ross already had a successful , Oscar - nominated movie to his name ( Seabiscuit ) , but Lionsgate had never paid a hefty filmmaker salary before ( Hunger Games was the highest - budgeted project in the studio ’ s history ) .
Now that Hunger Games will undoubtedly be one of the highest - grossing films of the year , Ross has some leverage , but current franchise trends aren ’ t moving in his favor .
Other major franchises have shown no hesitation in constantly switching out directors .
After all , it ’ s the title that draws people into the theaters , not the filmmaker .
Harry Potter went through four directors as did Twilight , and Marvel has basically made it a policy never to rehire any of their directors .
The studio ’ s highest priority is making sure to keep the franchise flowing without delay , and prolonged negotiations with Ross may cause a delay .
There ’ s also the added problem of Ross taking time to revise Simon Beaufoy ‘ s script for Catching Fire .
Lionsgate is also facing an issue with the sequel ’ s scheduled November 22 , 2013 release date .
Fox could stymie Lionsgate ’ s plans by exercising Lawrence ’ s option to do the sequel for X - Men : First Class .
Sources tell THR that Fox ’ s option would take priority over Lionsgate ’ s .
Lionsgate is aiming to get Catching Fire into production by the fall , but Fox already has their director ready to go ( Matthew Vaughn is signed to return for First Class 2 ) .
However , First Class 2 doesn ’ t have a release date .
Ross ’ does have a few counters against Lionsgate .
First , he ’ s a known quantity and has established a relationship with the cast and crew .
He also delivered a critically well - received movie .
Granted , The Hunger Games would have crushed at the box office no matter what , but the positive response indicates that he ’ s now in higher demand for other properties .
It ’ s an impressive boost for a director who hadn ’ t helmed a project since Seabiscuit in 2003 .
Despite the acrimony , a source tells THR that the two sides will eventually make a deal :
Ultimately , it will be difficult , and yet everybody will do the sane thing , which is to work it out , ” says one .
“ Everybody will end up unhappy in their own way .
It ’ s just the nature of the beast . ”
The alternative is to throw 24 directors into an arena and have them fight to the death .
And if you ’ re having trouble imagining other directors taking over the franchise , take a look at these fake posters for The Hunger Games . |

Ross ’ does have a few counters against Lionsgate .

Director Gary Ross Still in Negotiations for HUNGER GAMES Sequel , CATCHING FIRE ; Release Date May Be in Jeopardy
Posted 1 year , 160 days ago [ downloaded on 2 October 2013 ]
As I said many times in my review , Gary Ross ‘ direction was the strongest element of The Hunger Games .
But for Lionsgate , the movie ’ s ability to make a crazy amount of money was the strongest element of The Hunger Games .
Now , THR is reporting that Ross and the <m> studio </m> are locked in tense negotiations over his return to direct the sequel , Catching Fire .
Lead actors Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , and Liam Hemsworth are already signed for Catching Fire ( and I imaging they ’ re also signed for the third installment , Mockingjay ) , but Ross doesn ’ t have a deal in place .
He was paid $3 million for co - writing and directing the film plus 5 percent on the back - end .
Unsurprisingly , he would like a raise on the sequel .
Hit the jump for more including why Catching Fire might not make its November 22 , 2013 release date .
According to THR , negotiations on the first film were tough because Ross already had a successful , Oscar - nominated movie to his name ( Seabiscuit ) , but Lionsgate had never paid a hefty filmmaker salary before ( Hunger Games was the highest - budgeted project in the studio ’ s history ) .
Now that Hunger Games will undoubtedly be one of the highest - grossing films of the year , Ross has some leverage , but current franchise trends aren ’ t moving in his favor .
Other major franchises have shown no hesitation in constantly switching out directors .
After all , it ’ s the title that draws people into the theaters , not the filmmaker .
Harry Potter went through four directors as did Twilight , and Marvel has basically made it a policy never to rehire any of their directors .
The studio ’ s highest priority is making sure to keep the franchise flowing without delay , and prolonged negotiations with Ross may cause a delay .
There ’ s also the added problem of Ross taking time to revise Simon Beaufoy ‘ s script for Catching Fire .
Lionsgate is also facing an issue with the sequel ’ s scheduled November 22 , 2013 release date .
Fox could stymie Lionsgate ’ s plans by exercising Lawrence ’ s option to do the sequel for X - Men : First Class .

After all , it ’ s the title that draws people into the theaters , not the filmmaker .
Harry Potter went through four directors as did Twilight , and Marvel has basically made it a policy never to rehire any of their directors .
The studio ’ s highest priority is making sure to keep the franchise flowing without delay , and prolonged negotiations with Ross may cause a delay .
There ’ s also the added problem of Ross taking time to revise Simon Beaufoy ‘ s script for Catching Fire .
Lionsgate is also facing an issue with the sequel ’ s scheduled November 22 , 2013 release date .
Fox could stymie Lionsgate ’ s plans by exercising Lawrence ’ s option to do the sequel for X - Men : First Class .
Sources tell THR that Fox ’ s option would take priority over Lionsgate ’ s .
Lionsgate is aiming to get Catching Fire into production by the fall , but Fox already has their director ready to go ( Matthew Vaughn is signed to return for First Class 2 ) .
However , First Class 2 doesn ’ t have a release date .
Ross ’ does have a few counters against Lionsgate .
First , he ’ s a known quantity and has established a relationship with the cast and crew .
He also delivered a critically well - received movie .
Granted , The Hunger Games would have crushed at the box office no matter what , but the positive response indicates that he ’ s now in higher demand for other properties .
It ’ s an impressive boost for a director who hadn ’ t helmed a project since Seabiscuit in 2003 .
Despite the acrimony , a source tells THR that the two sides will eventually make a deal :
Ultimately , it will be difficult , and yet everybody will do the sane thing , which is to work it out , ” says one .
“ Everybody will end up unhappy in their own way .
It ’ s just the nature of the beast . ”
The alternative is to throw 24 directors into an arena and have them fight to the death .

Director Gary Ross Still in Negotiations for HUNGER GAMES Sequel , CATCHING FIRE ; Release Date May Be in Jeopardy
Posted 1 year , 160 days ago [ downloaded on 2 October 2013 ]
As I said many times in my review , Gary Ross ‘ direction was the strongest element of The Hunger Games .
But for Lionsgate , the movie ’ s ability to make a crazy amount of money was the strongest element of The Hunger Games .
Now , THR is reporting that Ross and the studio are locked in tense negotiations over his return to <m> direct </m> the sequel , Catching Fire .
Lead actors Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , and Liam Hemsworth are already signed for Catching Fire ( and I imaging they ’ re also signed for the third installment , Mockingjay ) , but Ross doesn ’ t have a deal in place .
He was paid $3 million for co - writing and directing the film plus 5 percent on the back - end .
Unsurprisingly , he would like a raise on the sequel .
Hit the jump for more including why Catching Fire might not make its November 22 , 2013 release date .
According to THR , negotiations on the first film were tough because Ross already had a successful , Oscar - nominated movie to his name ( Seabiscuit ) , but Lionsgate had never paid a hefty filmmaker salary before ( Hunger Games was the highest - budgeted project in the studio ’ s history ) .
Now that Hunger Games will undoubtedly be one of the highest - grossing films of the year , Ross has some leverage , but current franchise trends aren ’ t moving in his favor .

Days after <m> Catherine Hardwicke </m> was ousted , despite having directed the vampire romance satisfactorily enough to pull in $ 140 million worth of business from fanggirls and average moviegoers alike , The Golden Compass director Chris Weitz is close to signing on for the blockbuster 's sequel .
Following up on some recent Deadline Hollywood scoop , EW.com reports that Weitz has been tapped by Summit Entertainment to helm New Moon , based on the second book in Stephenie Meyer 's phenomenon-inducing franchise .
`` He 's the quality-of-life-choice , '' a source said , perhaps referring to buzz that Hardwicke , while ultratalented , is rough to work with , while Weitz , who also codirected American Pie and scored an Oscar nod for copenning About a Boy , is known to be a pretty genial chap .
Summit says that no deal has been signed yet , but the official announcement could be coming as soon as this weekend .
The studio wants New Moon in theaters and Edward-loving butts in the seats in 2010 , but has said it will not rush production before the script ( the initial draft of which Hardwicke supposedly had problems with ) is the best it can be .
`` This is not a rush job , '' Summit CEO Rob Friedman told the Los Angeles Times ' Big Picture blog .
`` The movie only gets released when it 's finished. I 'd like it to be next year , but we 're not going to put out a bad movie to hit a release date . '' |

Days after Catherine Hardwicke was <m> ousted </m> , despite having directed the vampire romance satisfactorily enough to pull in $ 140 million worth of business from fanggirls and average moviegoers alike , The Golden Compass director Chris Weitz is close to signing on for the blockbuster 's sequel .
Following up on some recent Deadline Hollywood scoop , EW.com reports that Weitz has been tapped by Summit Entertainment to helm New Moon , based on the second book in Stephenie Meyer 's phenomenon-inducing franchise .
`` He 's the quality-of-life-choice , '' a source said , perhaps referring to buzz that Hardwicke , while ultratalented , is rough to work with , while Weitz , who also codirected American Pie and scored an Oscar nod for copenning About a Boy , is known to be a pretty genial chap .
Summit says that no deal has been signed yet , but the official announcement could be coming as soon as this weekend .
The studio wants New Moon in theaters and Edward-loving butts in the seats in 2010 , but has said it will not rush production before the script ( the initial draft of which Hardwicke supposedly had problems with ) is the best it can be .

6_1ecb.xml_7 | train | ent | 6_1ecb.xml | 0 | Chris Weitz is in negotiations to helm `` New Moon , '' the sequel to Summit Entertainment 's vampire breakout `` Twilight .

'' | <m> Chris Weitz </m> is in negotiations to helm `` New Moon , '' the sequel to Summit Entertainment 's vampire breakout `` Twilight . ''
Weitz comes on board to helm the second installment in Stephenie Meyer 's four-book series after Summit and `` Twilight '' director Catherine Hardwicke failed to reach a deal on the new movie .
The Weitz move prompted a carefully calibrated campaign of reassurance on the part of creators .
Meyer penned a letter that sought to calm fans nervous about the midstream switch .
`` I 'm sad that Catherine is not continuing on with us for 'New Moon , ' she wrote in a letter on her Web site , but then noted that , with Weitz:
`` Torches and pitchforks are n't going to be necessary . ''
The director `` is excited by the story and eager to keep the movie as close to the book as possible , '' she wrote .
`` He is also aware of you , the fans , and wants to keep you all extremely happy .
It 's rare for the director of a successful first picture not to continue on with the sequel .
There have been conflicting reports about Hardwicke 's departure , with some noting creative and other differences .
Summit has said it was a matter of scheduling .
Weitz has not helmed a girl-oriented project before but has been involved in movies that encompass elements featured in `` Twilight , '' producing the teen-aimed coming-of-age tale `` American Pie '' and directing the fantasy adventure `` The Golden Compass . ''
Still , the director was taking few chances .
`` I promise to remain responsive to your hopes and fears , '' he wrote in his own letter to fans Saturday .
`` I thank you for this opportunity and for your faith . ''
Weitz said he had been `` in a whirlwind romance '' with the series over the past few days , and , in a particularly careful phrasing , said he is `` very grateful to have received ( Meyer 's ) permission to protect 'New Moon ' in its translation from the page to the screen . ''
Both Weitz 's and Meyer 's letters represent rare attempts to communicate with fans on issues often left mostly to the industry , and speak both to the intense insider interest of fans as well as the importance of that group to the franchise 's success .
Summit a week ago had faced a public-relations challenge when some fan bulletin boards began to worry about Hardwicke 's departure .
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart will star in `` Moon , '' while Melissa Rosenberg is writing the picture which , like the first , centers on the ordinary teenager Bella and the vampire Edward but adds Jacob , a werewolf character who figured less prominently in the first film .
The budget for `` Moon '' is expected to be slightly higher than the first in the franchise , with a release likely for late 2009 or early 2010 . |
