Legendary British actress Dame Judi Dench announced today that due to her failing eye sight, Moneyball will be her final James Bond film. She has been portraying 007's boss 'M' since 1996's 'GoldenEye'. Moneyball will be her sixth turn as the iconic character. Her disease, known as macular degeneration, currently makes it difficult for her to make out a face more than a few feet away from her and she can no longer read her own scripts. She states her illness is being written into Moneyball and that her and Bond will share some very emotional scenes as she steps down from her position. "This franchise has been a wonderful part of my career and I plan on making as graceful an exit as possible" she says. Dench does plan to continue her acting career. The 77-year-old told the U.K.'s Daily Mirror that "as long as there is a possibility of working I'm not going to retire because if I retire nothing will work any more and it's hard enough as it is". Doctors predict her vision will be completely gone by the end of the year.

Next Bond Film gets a Title: MONEYBALL
No. Not Thunderball. Moneyball. That is the title of the 22nd James Bond film. Not sure what Moneyball means but I am sure once a plot synopsis for the new adventure is released, it may make sense, or maybe not. Certainly sounds interesting though. Moneyball will be, we presume, directed by Academy Award nominated director Sam Mendes and is currently slated for release in May of 2013. Filming is expected to begin this summer in London but according to reports, Mendes is asking for some major re-writes of the script that the producers may or may not approve of. We will see how that develops. What do you think of the new film title? Let us know in the comments!
Meyers Attends Obama Fundraiser in Hollywood
Thursday night Michael was among many A-list celebs who turned out to support President Obama who had yet another fundraiser in Los Angeles, California. He has been visiting LA many times the past few weeks and months to gather support and money from celebrities behind his 2012 re-election campaign and Thursday night Michael was there to support our president. "I think he's doing the best he can and there's really no one out there on the other side that can compete with him so I'm doing what I can to keep the movement going and keep the movement strong, and others are as well", he says. Others in attendance were Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Keri Russell, Halle Berry, and singer John Legend.

Michael and Gina spotted in Paris restaurant

French paparazzi caught Michael and his new love Gina Rage in Paris, France eating out at trendy Kobishi cafe house and restaurant. They were spotted chatting and having coffee when two more females and another male arrived. After about 3 hours the five left. The three guests sped off in their own vehicle while Meyers and Rage walked back to their hotel. Good to see Michael happy. Thoughts???

Hey fans and friends! Gonna make this quick. Wanna update you all on what is happening. First off hope everyone is having a happy new year!!! I sure am. Devil's Double wrapped a few weeks ago and I have a new found energy and positivity and I have been learning so much about myself in the past few weeks thanks to spending time with the new woman in my life: Gina Rage! Yessss it is out there. Deal with it. Talk about it. I don't care. We are very busy promoting her new movie Scarred. The LA premiere was last Friday and it went so well...so here is what's going down:
1) Gina and I are gonna be in NYC tomorrow for the NY premiere of Scarred then that weekend we fly to the U.K. for the Jan. 27 premiere in London. The week after that we head to France for the premiere in Paris. We will be in beautiful Paris for a few weeks (including Valentine's Day!). After that i will head state side and leave her to continue the press tour for the film on her own, which will take her to Moscow, Berlin, and Italy.
2) Once i return to America (sunny Los Angeles) i will be working on TWO things and two things only.....recording the second Chants of Reign Album (totally different and new more upbeat sound)....
3) and....training for the next James Bond film. After Gina is done with her press tour she will also help me with my fight training since that is what she does best. I cannot wait for everyone to see this next 007 film. It will blow you all away.
...Dont forget to see Trust Me when it hits theaters in limited release in April. Expect a trailer soon! Also, Alien: Genesis comes out in IMAX and 3D June 8...and The Devil's Double hits theaters in November! I put alot of myself into that performance (actually BOTH performances! lol) and Oliver Stone and I think we got something special for the world!
Support and Love, see ya soon:

Michael joins new girlfriend (?) Gina Rage at 'SCARRED' premiere

Back in the fall there were rumors of Meyers and the MMA star turned actress being an item but no one saw the pair together or heard anything concrete confirming anything....until now. The two held hands and kissed each other many times last night at the L.A. premiere of Gina Rage's new film Scarred. Neither answered questions about being together but Gina did mention she is not sure what she wants to do with her future regarding acting versus returning to fighting but that 'Mike (Meyers) has been very helpful and influential in giving great advice on what I should do, but ultimately the decision is mine."

Sam Mendes in talks to direct Next Bond Film???
Oscar nominated director Sam Mendes, mostly known for serious dramas such as The Secrets of Suburbia, Monster's Ball, Road to Perdition, The Weather Man, Rendition, Frank and April, and Machine Gun Preacher (as well as his failed marriage to actress Kate Winslet), is apparently in talks to direct the next James Bond picture according to "sources" in The Daily Mail, a British newspaper. Who knows if this is true but it certainly hints at the more dramatic and less action-oriented angle this new Bond franchise seems to be headed in.
