Oscar-winner Sandra Bullock has apparently landed a role opposite George Clooney in space drama Gravity.

In their new flick, the two will play the only survivors of a space mission gone wrong who are struggling to get back to Earth, reports US Weekly.

The film was originally supposed to star Robert Downey Jr., but he backed out due to scheduling conflicts, according to People.com.

Bullock and Clooney are expected to begin filming next spring, giving the new mom some more time to spend with the new man in her life: 11-month-old Louis, who she adopted recently.

The two have been spotted gallivanting around town, most recently at a friend's birthday party.

'He's just perfect, I can't even describe him any other way,' the New York Daily News quoted the gushing mom as saying.

Fans of rock band The Rolling Stone could soon see some rare, unseen photographs of the band which were tucked away in a duffel bag for more than 40 years.

 

Taken by the band's US tour manager, the late Bob Bonis, these pictures showcase the band from June 1964 to 1966 when they went from virtual unknowns to one of the greatest in the world, reports the Daily Mail.

 

Bonis, who helped organise the so-called British invasion of America by UK pop acts in the mid-Sixties, took more than 2,700 photos with his treasured Leica, recording the band in their most intimate moments.

 

The treasure trove of photographs includes shots of a 21-year-old Keith Richards and Brian Jones relaxing by their hotel pool and a smiling Mick Jagger posing in an open shirt and shades.

 

Bonis, who refused to publish his photos or write a book about his experiences, allowed a handful of pictures to be published in teen magazines in the Sixties.

 

He then stowed away the negatives and slides in a duffel bag unknown to anyone but his family and closest friends.

 

Now his son Alex has decided to make this personal archive public, and the result is a book called 'The Lost Rolling Stones Photographs, The Bob Bonis Archive, 1964-1966'.
