BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – The romantic fantasy "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" led Academy Awards contenders Thursday with 13 nominations, among them best picture and acting honors for Brad Pitt and Taraji P. Henson, and a directing slot for David Fincher.

Other best-picture nominees are "Frost/Nixon," "Milk," "The Reader" and "Slumdog Millionaire."

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- The nominees for the 81st annual Academy Awards were announced on Thursday morning - and the stars couldn't be more excited.

"This is a great honor for the movie, and I'm especially happy for David Fincher, for without him there would be no 'Ben Button.'"

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Dakota Fanning could be showing her fangs in the upcoming "Twilight" sequel, "New Moon," as a pint-sized bloodsucking killer vampire.

According to E! Online's Marc Malkin, the 14-year-old actress is in talks to play Jane, a member of Italy's Volturi - a group of deadly vampires from the Stephenie Meyer's book series.

If you're a "Hannah Montana" fan, then you've got to be excited about "Hannah Montana: The Movie," which is set to open in theaters on April 10! In the film, Miley Stewart -- played by Miley Cyrus -- finds that her secret pop-star persona is starting to take over her life. Worried that his teenage daughter might just let it, Miley's concerned father (played by her real-life dad Billy Ray Cyrus) takes her back home to Crowley Corners, Tennessee, to give her a reality check and remind her of where she came from.

Judging from the "Hannah Montana" movie trailer, it looks like it's going to be a lot of fun! Check it out on
