There are a veritable Rat Pack of stars lining up to play Frank Sinatra in an upcoming biopic of the singer and actor.

Martin Scorsese is directing the film and is in need of an actor to play young Sinatra. The shortlist of actors being considered includes such Hollywood heavyweights such as Johnny Depp, James Franco, Jake Gyllenhaal, Justin Timberlake, Mark Wahlberg, Michael Bublé and Jon Hamm, and Leonardo DiCaprio.

In a bit of a surprise bit of casting new, Jamie Foxx is also apparently in the running.

Hello, Men!

Reunited New Kids on the Block channeled The Rat Pack as they filmed a music video for their new single at Jet Nightclub in Las Vegas. The Boys teamed up with Ne-Yo for their new single, aptly titled “Single,” and sipped on some fake cocktails while flirting with the girlies on the Vegas set.

Look at little agoraphobic Jonathan hiding in the shadows of the upper right hand corner.

Get your party on, Boys. We can’t wait to see them in concert in October.

Law Abiding Citizen See It or Skip It

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

The Boys Are Back See It or Skip It

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Jennifer's Body See it or Skip it

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

See It or Skip It: World's Greatest Dad

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
