The Dish

Robert Pattinson's axieties soothed on 'Twilight' set.

Muscled aside Guess Robert Pattinson's not on Team Jacob. He reveals that he felt a little threatened by the wolf guy's masculinity during filming of the "Twilight" movies, so much so that he got a kick out of seeing Taylor Lautner in his CGI gear. "The funniest moment was when he was in this little gray spandex suit," the pale heartthrob said. "Taylor quite frequently out-mans me, so seeing him in that little outfit made me feel much better about myself." Heck, for that matter, Kristen Stewart out-mans him.

The final reel We know Betty White has attained god-like status, but could she -- should she -- play God? Producer Jerry Weintraub has tried for years to film a remake of the 1977 George Burns hit "Oh, God!" Rumor is he's just made a pitch for a new version with White, and Paul Rudd as the hapless John Denver character. Betty might be on the verge of being overexposed, but perhaps she can free us from Morgan Freeman. ... Elizabeth Banks has been drafted by Disney to play the lead role in a live action "Tinkerbell." ... Julia Roberts and her "Eat, Pray, Love" director Ryan Murphy are pitching a comedy about a career woman who begrudgingly trades places with her stay-at-home husband.
