Between dispelling rumors, working on several projects, and wondering who they can trust among their circle, it’s safe to say celebs are, more often than not, under a great deal of stress. Sure, they’ve got ways of coping—their multimillion dollar homes, exclusive club memberships, the ability to take off to St. Bart’s whenever they want…what was my point again?
Ok, so they’ve got pretty cushy lifestyles. But most celebrities have gotten to where they’re at by being determined and hard-working, and that’s a quality that welcomes stress. So if you’re bipolar, and you’re dealing with all that stress, you’re probably going to have a meltdown. Charlie Sheen, anyone? Duh, #manic depression.

Plot is as follows: The film will revolve around Pam and Gaylord "Greg" Focker trying to cope with raising their children. Greg begins to go through a mid-life crisis as he ponders the rest of his life as his children come into play, he also begins to worry about being a good father and obtaining a stable job earning money for his family.
This leads Jack to become highly suspicious once again about what is going on with Greg. This leads to a lot of suspense between the two and eventually leads to a fight between the two characters.
Jessica Alba makes a cameo in this film as well. I can't help but wonder whether Greg(Ben Stiller) and Jessica Alba will hook up since Greg is going through a mid-life crisis.
"Little Fockers" hits theaters Dec. 22, but for now you can watch the trailer after the jump.

Robert DeNiro and Ben Stiller reunite for the Little Fockers. These two have amazing chemistry so we're sure this movie is going to be as funny as the first two Focker movies.
The plotline is as follows: When Greg and Pam’ entire clan—including Pam’s lovelorn ex, Kevin (Owen Wilson)—descends for the twins’ birthday party, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he’s fully capable as the man of the house. But with all the misunderstandings, spying and covert missions, will Greg pass Jack’s final test and become the family’s next patriarch…or will the circle of trust be broken for good?
Little Fockers comes out on Christmas.

Paramount Pictures and MTV Films announced today that they are developing a movie around producer Les Grossman.
Tom Cruise portrayed Les Grossman in Ben Stiller's Tropic Thunder and brought him back on Sunday during the 2010 MTV Movie Awards. His character stole the show which is probably why they jumped on making a movie on his character.
Said Ben Stiller: “Les Grossman's life story is an inspiring tale of the classic human struggle to achieve greatness against all odds. He has assured me he plans to quote, ‘F**king kill the sh*t out of this movie and make Citizen f**king Kane look like a piece of crap home movie by the time we are done.’ I am honored to be working with him.”
Grossman, best known as a mega producer, has most recently mentored talents such as Rob Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. In 2008, Grossman was introduced to the masses by Stiller in the comedy “Tropic Thunder” where the famed producer had a cameo playing himself.
When asked what the screenplay was about Grossman responded: “To quote my great friend Kirk Lazarus, ‘I don’t read the script, the script reads me.’”
This movie is going to be hilarious! Can't wait till Tom Cruise puts that fat suit back on.
Ben Stiller’s Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian was the winner by a longshot, grossing $53.5 million. Terminator: Salvation came in second with $43 million.
Fox exec Chris Aronson said on Stiller’s film’s behalf, "I think most people felt Terminator was going to win the weekend. I think it's a testament to comedy is king."
Here are the top ten movies from the May 23-25 weekend.
Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, $53.5 million
Terminator Salvation, $43 million
Star Trek, $22 million
Angels & Demons, $21.4 million
Dance Flick, $11.1 million
X-Men Origins: Wolverine, $7.8 million
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, $3.7 million
Obsessed, $2 million
Monsters vs Aliens, $1.3 million
17 Again, $1 million

Mocking Phoenix' recent string of bizarre public appearances, Ben wore a scruffy fake beard and wandered aimlessly around the stage.
Natalie Portman asked him why he was acting so strange to which he replied, "I just wanna retire from being the funny guy", prompting her reply, "You look like you live in a Hasidic meth lab." The crowd roared with laughter.
Playing along with his joke, Portman then said, "This is ridiculous," and asked him to take out his chewing gum because he's "at the Oscars."
"OK, I'll take it out," Ben said and stuck the gum on the podium, mocking Phoenix for doing the same thing during a taping of David Letterman's Late Show last week.
It's pretty sad that Joaquin was nominated for an Oscar just a few years ago and this year he was the laughing stock of the industry. Hope his "rap career" is worth it. In the meanwhile, check out Ben's hilarious impression of Joaquin below...

Hollyscoop spoke to Stiller at the Palm Springs Festival a few weeks back and asked whether there would be a Little Focker anytime soon, he laughed and replied "maybe."
It’s been over four years since Meet The Fockers came out, so this has been a really anticipated sequel. The new movie will be all about Stiller’s character’s kids, and his attempt to appease his disapproving father-in-law Robert DeNiro.
Owen Wilson is said to have a much bigger role in this film than he did in the first two. Same writer, John Hamburg, is on board to do the script. So we can expect those same types of jokes. Some might call it predictable, but who cares? It’s one of those movies that you know you’ll laugh at almost every scene. We can’t wait!
Was Hollyscoop the inspiration for the new title of his movie? We like to think so!

Robert said that if the opportunity to shoot Tropic Thunder the sequel came up, he would most likely reject it because "it wouldn't be as good."
He says, "I have a feeling that we'd still make some money but it probably wouldn't be as good. (But) I'd like to work with Ben (Stiller) again."
Robert played Kirk Lazarus in the film - an Australian method actor who undergoes an operation to darken his skin in order to play an African-American character.
He was absolutely hilarious in the movie--perhaps the funniest role he's ever played! Would you want to see Tropic Thunder Part II? What do you think the sequel should be about?
