YOUNG JUSTICE Set for January 7 Launch

Although the pilot episode already debuted in November, Cartoon Network has announced that they've scheduled the proper series launch of Young Justice for January 7, 2011 at 7pm (ET, PT). Here's the series synopsis:

In Young Justice, being a teenager means proving yourself over and over - to peers, parents, teachers, mentors and, ultimately, to yourself. But what if you're not just a normal teenager? What if you're a teenage super hero? How much harder will it be to prove yourself in a world of super powers, super villains and super secrets? Are you ready to come of age in such a world? Are you ready for life or death rites of passage? Are you ready to join the ranks of the great heroes and prove you're worthy of the Justice League? That's exactly what the members of Young Justice - Robin, Aqualad, Kid Flash, Superboy, Miss Martian and Artemis - will found out ... whether they have what it takes to be a proven hero.

This all-new series is produced by Warner Bros. Animation and based upon characters from DC Comics. Sam Register (Teen Titans, Ben 10, Batman: The Brave and the Bold) is the executive producer. Brandon Vietti (Batman: Under the Red Hood, Superman Doomsday, The Batman) and Greg Weisman (Gargoyles, The Spectacular Spider-Man, W.I.T.C.H.) are the producers.

• As actor Chris Hemsworth looks forward to the upcoming publicity push on Thor, he's also prepping to begin work this year on Marvel's sequel/spin-off The Avengers. He tells E! Onliine he still hasn't seen a script, but is working to keep up his Norse God physique, which means eating "my body weight in protein" (in other words, lots and lots of chicken).
   
• Kevin Bacon told PhillyStyleMag.com that his role as Sebastian Shaw in X-Men: First Class doesn't involve him seeing any action. "I’ll let the younger actors do that," the 52 year-old he said. "I’m more one of those sit-in-my-chair-and-destroy-the-world type of guys."
   
• The L.A. Times have posted as listing of various filming locations around town, including some for Marc Webb's 2012 3D reboot of Spider-Man.  According to the report, the production will emply seven sound stages on the Sony lot. Other locations include the Henry Fonda Theater in Hollywood, Immanuel Presbyterian Church in mid-Wilshire and various locales from South Pasadena to San Pedro to Woodland Hills. There are also to be two weeks of filming in New York.
