December 21,2012: 'Snow White and the Seven Huntsman', Directed by Rupert Sanders with Tom Hardy rumored to be attached.
May 17, 2013: 'The Dark Tower', Directed by Ron Howard
It's a nice full slate of movies to look out for in the next couple of years. I think 'The Dark Tower', 'The Bourne Legacy' and the Judd Apatow project are the movies I will anticipate the most. It's about time a big screen adaptation of the 'The Dark Tower' was made, and with Ron Howard expected to direct, I have high hopes for that one. Also seeing there's a new Apatow project on the horizon gets me excited. 'Funny People' is one of my favorite comedies, along with 'The 40 Year Old Virgin'.
Hopefully, there's something for everyone on the list of upcoming Universal movies.

im so stoked for dark tower it is the craziest story with everything from alternate dimensions to robots to cowboys and magic, and it works it all in flawlessly, cant wait to see what they do with the movie
"The Bourne Legacy... Matt Damon not on board yet", and never will be.
Good to hear that you like Funny People. I thoroughly enjoyed it as well.
What's wrong with Julia Roberts? This Georgian is offended! (yeah, not really). I don't know about Ron Howard directing The Dark Tower, doesn't seem like a good fit.
i mean, yeah i woulda been much happier with jj but at least its getting made
What's with the ugh on Julia? That's not nice.
