Hey, you kids, get off my dig!

Between questions about "Transformers," Shia LaBeouf reported that progress has been made toward a fifth "Indiana Jones." He said Steven Spielberg told him he had "cracked" the story, perhaps meaning he'd hit upon the crucial ancient artifact he was looking to build the plot around. Would Harrison Ford qualify?

The final reel

Amy Poehler will serve up cafeteria food by day and justice by night as the "Lunch Lady," based on an upcoming series of graphic novels. ... Peter Morgan ("The Queen," "Frost/Nixon") has been hired to write the script for the next James Bond film. Reportedly he also persuaded Michael Sheen, star of both movies, to play baddie Ernst Stavro Blofeld. ... James Franco and Robert Pattinson are vying to play late musician Jeff Buckley. ... Leonardo DiCaprio is taking a gamble on an untitled film about online poker. ... Woman power: Kristen Bell, Sigourney Weaver, Kristin Chenoweth, Jamie Lee Curtis and Betty White (oh, and Victor Garber) star in Disney's "You Again." ... Natalie Portman has the lead in "Black Swan," described as a "supernatural ballet thriller" directed by Darren Aronofsky ("The Wrestler").
