Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Michael Pena, Anna Kendrick, Natalie Martinez, Frank Grillo, America Ferrera, and David Harbour, End of Watch hits theaters on September 21, 2012.

Robert Pattinson Video: The Daily Show
Robert Pattinson’s on the road doing press for his new film Cosmopolis and he stopped by The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on Monday, August 13th to talk about that film. This is Rob’s first round of interviews following his break-up with Kristen Stewart, and Jon Stewart offered him some Ben & Jerry’s and said they were just going to chat like girls and commiserate over their relationship troubles.
Asked Stewart, “So what are we doing here? Are you all right? Is everything okay? I’m worried about you, and you are all right?”
And Pattinson, who said he didn’t want to eat the ice cream for fear of splitting his Spanx, continued to be worried about the little container. In response, Pattinson replied, “I literally don’t even know how to approach this now,” but then he moved on to the interview question.
“This is the weird thing about these interviews. Now I’m going to sound like an idiot. My biggest problem in my life is I’m cheap and I didn’t hire a publicist. And every awkward interview…you know, normally actors get these things scripted…”
“I’m going to hire a publicist,” says Pattinson.

Frank Ocean Cancels Tour Plans
Frank Ocean has canceled his upcoming concerts, including tour dates with Coldplay as well as his scheduled festival performances. And he also cut short his performance at Norway’s 2012 Oya Festival citing vocal problems after performing just four songs.
According to a report from The Music.com-au, Ocean had been 15 minutes late to start his set on the main stage at the Oya Festival but then sounded good through four songs. “[…] the set was just hitting its stride when, suddenly, he disappeared off stage. Moments later something was announced in Norwegian. Turns out the disembodied voice was saying that Ocean had lost his voice and would not be returning to the stage,” reports The Music. “A disappointing outcome considering all seemed to be shaping up excellently at the time.”
Ocean then issued a statement via Way Out West festival organizers announcing the cancellations:
From Frank Ocean:
“Lem me start by saying I feel like an a**hole right now. But a tough decision had to be made in regard to my schedule over the next months and the casualities of that decision include my appearances at upcoming festivals in Europe and my opening slot on the European leg of the Coldplay World Tour. Sorry as f*ck. I’ll be back if you’ll have me.'”
Meanwhile, the Way Out West festival people had this to say:
“Frank Ocean has just informed us that he will be unable to perform this evening at Way Out West. Both Frank Ocean and we hoped hoped for the best, but unfortunately he will not be performing. The good news is that Looptroop Rockers will be filling in and performing an exclusive gig at Way Out West. They have graced festival stages all over Europe this summer and now they’re coming to Gothenburg and WOW!”

‘The New Normal’ Preview: Cast, Plot and Trailer
NBC’s set to debut the new half-hour comedy The New Normal on September 11, 2012. Justin Bartha and Andrew Rannells star as a couple who believe their lives would be complete if they added a baby.
Ellen Barkin stars as Nana, Georgia King plays Goldie, Bebe Wood is Shania, and NeNe Leakes plays Rocky.
The Plot: These days, families come in all forms – single dads, double moms, sperm donors, egg donors, one-night-stand donors… It’s 2012 and anything goes. Bryan (Rannells) and David (Bartha) are a Los Angeles couple and they have it all. Well, almost. With successful careers and a committed, loving partnership, there is one thing that this couple is missing: a baby.
And just when they think the stars will never align, enter Goldie (Georgia King), an extraordinary young woman with a checkered past. A midwestern waitress and single mother looking to escape her dead-end life and small-minded grandmother (Ellen Barkin), Goldie decides to change everything and move to L.A. with her precocious eight-year-old daughter. Desperate and broke – but also fertile – Goldie quickly becomes the guys’ surrogate and quite possibly the girl of their dreams. Surrogate mother, surrogate family.
