CAA is moving its Los Angeles headquarters to a larger location in Century City as it prepares to absorb hundreds of new employees through its pending acquisition of ICM Partners. The agency will leave its current spot on Constellation Boulevard and head across the street to the under-construction Century City Center tower in 2026.
Per CAA, “Jmb Realty’s 37-story, state-of the-art commercial tower, designed by Johnson Fain, will feature two acres of gardens and courtyards and close access to retail stores, restaurants, hotels, fitness centers and other amenities. The building at 1950 Avenue of the Stars is designed to achieve Leed Platinum certification — the highest achievable rating from the U.S. Green Building Council — reflecting its future status as one of the most environmentally sustainable buildings in Los Angeles.”

CAA said Wednesday that it has signed a long-term lease agreement to relocate its headquarters to Century City Center in 2026, when it will become an anchor tenant in a new, 37-story commercial tower across the street from its current building on Constellation Boulevard.
Speculation about the potential move started in September, following the announcement of CAA’s proposed acquisition of ICM Partners, which is going through the regulatory approval process. The new digs, which are within a block from the current CAA and ICM headquarters in Century City, would house the combined entity.
The tower, at 1950 Avenue of the Stars, is from Jmb Realty and designed by Johnson Fain. It will feature two acres of gardens and courtyards and being designed achieve Leed Platinum certification. It will be close to the under-construction Constellation/Century City Metro station.

If you've yet to even hear about Michael Bay's bodybuilding action-comedy starring Mark Wahlberg and the embodiment of sweet-and-charming Dwayne Johnson, and are surprised to know that a teaser poster has just been released, you're not alone.
The last we heard about the man behind the Transformers franchise was that he was working to make the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles into aliens, instead of, well, mutant ninja turtles, and had not an inkling that he was cooking up on a story about Florida gym-rats who get embroiled in an extortion ring and kidnapping scheme that goes, as these things often do, terribly, irrevocably wrong.
Based on a three-part 1999 Miami New Times series by Pete Collins that described the misadventures of the Sun Gym gang who had a penchant for steroids, strippers and quick money, Bay apparently told Paramount that he wanted to get Pain & Gain made before he would...

In Michael Bay's latest film, the "Bad Boys" director has gone from guns to guns. Based on Pete Collins's Miami New Times series, "Pain & Gain," Bay's professed "dark comedy," follows a pair of Floridian musclemen (Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson) who get mixed up in a doomed kidnapping. The movie has been gestating for years. Bay told MTV in 2009 -- when "Pain & Gain" was just a twinkle in his eye -- that he had hopes of doing a smaller production, which he described as "a 'Pulp Fiction'-type of movie." Paramount has released the first teaser poster for the film, which you can check out below. "Pain & Gain" starring Wahlberg, Johnson, Ed Harris, Rebel Wilson, Ken Jeong, Anthony Mackie and Rob Corddry will muscle its way to theaters April 12, 2013. Photo:...

El Mayimbe over at Latino Review is reporting that actor John Turturro may be reuniting with director Michael Bay for his "smaller movie" Pain and Gain , which already stars Dwayne Johnson, Mark Wahlberg, Ed Harris and Rob Corddry. According to them, Turturro would play Miami businessman Marc Schiller, who was kidnapped and tortured by bodybuilders Daniel Lugo (Wahlberg) and Adrian Doorbal (Johnson), members of Miami's notorious Sun Gym gang. Bay's true crime tale is based on Pete Collins' Miami New Times series about the criminals. Originally, they had gone out to Albert Brooks for the role, but Latino Review is saying that deal fell apart and Bay turned to the actor who appeared in all three "Transformers" movies. As they note, Tuturro actually...

If you enjoyed the Transformers trilogy (or at least the first and third entry) then you will be happy yo know that Transformers 4 is moving ahead with Michael Bay back in the director’s chair and a 2014 release date. Series producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura was at Toy Fair 2012 where he confirmed that Transformers 4 is a go, he said this without an official release from Paramount, so they were quick to get on that when the Internet starting talking.
Deadline says that Bay will only shoot Transformers 4 next and not the fourth and fifth installments back-to-back as had been rumored last year. Bay will first shoot Pain and Gain with Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg. That movie actually sounds interesting as it’s based on a 2000 Miami News Times article by investigative journalist Pete Collins about “a couple of Florida steroid-abusing knucklehead bodybuilders who become criminals involved in...

Despite the fact that Hasbro wants him to direct a fourth and fifth Transformers, Michael Bay is moving ahead with his long-gestating plans for a low-budget dark comedy about a real-life ring of criminal bodybuilders in Miami.
The small (by his standards) film is titled Pain and Gain, set up at Paramount with a roughly $20 million budget, and scheduled to shoot in Spring 2012, according to Variety.
The latest developments are that Dwayne Johnson (a.k.a. WWE’s “The Rock”) is in early talks to star as one of the two central characters. Update: Mark Wahlberg considered, then passed on the project, according to a Tweet from Variety’s reporter on the story.
The story is based on Pete Collins’ Miami Times article about an organization of gym rats who extorted money from wealthy entrepreneurs by kidnapping them and forcing them to sign away their assets. The comedy comes from their actual incompetence,...

Transformers: Dark of the Moon has crashed its way into theaters and, for all intents and purposes, it’s more of the same from director Michael Bay. Loud noises, scantily-clad babes, explosive violence, and all-around excess, each a classic staple in cinematic “Bayhem” and, admittedly, the reasons why his fans show up in droves.
But Michael Bay isn’t always this consistent. In the last four years of transforming robots, he has turned backpedaling into something of an art form — or flip-flopping, to borrow a political term for “a sudden change in policy.” For example, Bay defended Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, widely considered the worst of an already specious trilogy, right up until he admitted “we made some mistakes” and called the mystical premise “crap.”
Bay is entitled to change his tune, of course. He’s a grown man (46) with a lot on his mind (including that ’80s haircut). For now,...
