People magazine named Ryan Reynolds 'Sexiest Man Alive yesterday' (November 17) in the 2010 edition of the mag's annual list. The humble star, whose next flick "Green Lantern" is slated for a June 2011 release, was, as always, funny and candid regarding his newfound title.

Reynolds told People:

"The most difficult part is going to be organically working this title into a conversation with random strangers."

Reynolds joins an elite group of Hollywood hotties who have been named Sexiest, including Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon and Johnny Depp.

But earning the distinction of being 2010's sexiest man apparently doesn't have any clout on the home front with wife Scarlett Johansson.

"Now it's going to be, 'Sexiest man, take out the garbage.' That does sound better."

Of course, Ryan isn't the only one in the Reynolds/Johansson household being honored this week. Wife Scarlett was voted GQ's Babe of the Year to boot!

Hmmm...we wonder how they celebrated?!!!

Do you think Reynolds deserves the Sexiest Man title? Weigh in below, or @MTV3.

How fun would it be to work in the research department at Party City? You know, that megastore that specializes in balloons, banners, and New Year’s poppers? Well somebody on their crack data team just released a list of this year’s most in-demand Halloween costumes and a few Tr3s faves made the cut!

Topping this year’s Halloween “must-list?” Snooki from “Jersey Shore!” Yup, everyone’s favorite fist-pumper is flying off the costume racks. We think this one could just as easily be done at home. Pick up some orange makeup paint, a dark wig, revealing jean shorts, and a pair of flip flops and you’re set!

Also in demand is Ms. Zoe Saldana. Ok, maybe not Zoe herself, but Zoe the Na’vi from James Cameron’s 'Avatar.' This one will probably be a little trickier to pull off than Snooki (have plenty of blue spray paint handy), but we're thinking you'll get tons of attention on the trick-or-treat route.

Lady Gaga is right up there too. But we didn’t need any study to tell us that. Just look at all of her outrageous outfits! The question is, which one would be the best for Halloween? The meat dress she wore at the VMAs or that Kermit the Frog getup from a few years back?

Don’t worry fellas, we didn’t forget about you. We’ve got two Johnny Depp options to work with. First there’s always the tried and true Jack Sparrow, but a new Party City fave happens to be his Mad Hatter from Tim Burton’s “Alice In Wonderland.” Take your pick and enjoy!

And last but not least, we've got something for all of you budget Halloween shoppers out there. Times are definitely tough and the dollar store can work just as well for finding good costumes. They’ve got paints, funny glasses, and even pumpkins for less than a buck, so get creative and enjoy!

Ahoy, Mateys! You’ve heard the rumors, but now we’ve got the photographic proof! Penelope Cruz WILL be playing a sexy swashbuckler in the latest sequel to the Disney ride. "Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" is now well along in its Hawaii shoot and Radar Online caught the first snaps of the new Mrs. Bardim in full costume!

Isn’t it about time Johnny Depp’s character got an A-List love interest? Keira Knightly was fine in the first three movies, but we always knew Elizabeth Swann was from the upper class. Never before did we get a full-blown lady pirate to challenge Captain Jack Sparrow and the Black Pearl.

In the description we’ve heard so far, Penelope is set to play a girlfriend from Jack’s past. Notice how they’re keeping it intentionally vague? Is she a good guy, a bad guy, or somewhere in between? We already know that Ian McShane's been cast as Blackbeard, so that rules out primary villain, but we’re betting she may give sneaky Sparrow a run for his money.

Either way, she’s flashing some seriously authentic historical wardrobe in these pix. We understand this is set hundreds of years ago, but would it kill you to create a 1700’s bikini? We all know Penelope’s looking fabulous right now (as a gushing new bride) and hopefully they won’t cover her up for the ENTIRE film, right?

Ladies and gentlemen, "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" hype is officially ON! The web’s already buzzing with set photos of Johnny Depp, back in his signature dreadlocks. Producer Jerry Bruckheimer had this to say about Jack Sparrow’s newest love interest, Penelope Cruz:

"She's so fiery and fun," Bruckheimer told MTV News. "I can just imagine how the screen is going to sizzle with the two of them on it."

The latest 'Pirates' sequel will focus on a battle with the legendary Blackbeard. "Deadwood" heavy Ian McShane’s playing the main bad guy this time out, but expect a major return for Geoffrey Rush’s Captain Barbossa.

And who exactly is Penelope? All we know is that she’s a woman from Jack Sparrow’s past and on a quest to find the Fountain Of Youth! Sounds like an epic to us...too bad we’ll have to wait until May 2011 to see it!

Johnny Depp has played such an array of characters (“Edward Scissorhands,” “Donnie Brasco,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Public Enemies,” etc.) that you could almost call him a chameleon. So, isn't it about time he played one?

Depp and "Pirates of the Caribbean" pal Gore Verbinski are teaming up again for Paramount's animated feature, “Rango.” The movie will realize the dreams of millions of women worldwide, as it casts Johnny as a household pet! The talented hottie plays the title character "Rango" and is described by Verbinski as “a chameleon with an identity crisis [. . . who] fancies himself a hero and is thrust into a crazy set of circumstances where he becomes one.”

Isla Fisher, Timothy Olyphant, and Claudia Black will also lend their voices to the film.

Although we feel that another Depp and Verbinski pair-up can only yield good results (and it'll be fun to hear Johnny's voice work), the trailer seems a bit strange! But hey, that's to be expected from such an unorthodox actor.

"Rango" is set to hit theaters on March 4, 2011.

Where do you think "Rango" will rank in Johnny Depp's list of unusual performances? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3!

In our first installment of Deep Thoughts, Blogamole contributor Bashira Webb expresses genuine fear and ridiculous shallowness over Johnny Depp's new look.

By Bashira Webb

There were many important global issues to cover this week (SB 1070, violence in China, etc.), but I have to admit that something else is weighing just as heavily on my mind.

I hate to say this, but... Johnny Depp isn't looking so fresh and so clean these days. What's up with that?

Even Johnny on the big screen is losing his hunkiness. Mr. Depp looked deranged in "Alice in Wonderland," but you could blame that on the scary makeup.

In "Pirates of the Caribbean" he is at least very sexy ugly, which is often quite hot.

Nevertheless, I need the Johnny from “Blow” or “Chocolat” back, STAT! Please Johnny, please. Do some cardio, calisthenics, something!

We have more photos of Johnny Depp, after the jump! Read more...

We LOVE Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem, but Pene and Johnny Depp...well, that's HOT too! Cruz is apparently being courted to play Depp's love interest in the fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean.

We have to admit, Penelope would make one hot sea wench! [LatinGossip]

The new animated film by 'Nightmare Before Christmas' mastermind Tim Burton, '9,' came out in theaters on 9.9.09 (que apropiado!).  So, why should you be rushing to the movie theater to see it?  Okay, there aren't any Latino puppets en la película and you won't see Johnny Depp anywhere, but don't let that fool you into thinking you won't enjoy this one!

La película is a refreshing take on the slew of post-apocalyptic movies invading los teatros these days (not to be confused with 'District 9,' currently scaring our pantalones off with fear of an alien invasion gone awry).  '9' has got the grit and stylized CGI imagery of movies like 'The Matrix,' but also some truly lovable and cute characters (in a steampunk and futuristic kind of way).  Also, it stars cutie Elijah Wood of 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy fame as la voz del personaje principal, 9.  9 is an underdog outsider who must be brave en un tiempo de dificultad to pull his friends, himself, y el mundo entero, out of the darkness.  We can relate to that!

Still have no idea what we're talking about?  Watch an exclusive clip from the movie below:

Okay, so maybe we didn't give you nueve razones to see the movie, but who cares, the world is ending and our future is in 9's hands! Creemos que that's a good enough reason to see it. Get some more details about la película by watching MTV Movies' Rough Cut with co-producer, Tim Burton!

Quieres aún más '9'?  Head over to the official Focus Films '9' page to watch the trailer, exclusive movie clips,  meet the cast and even play some interactive '9' games!

Now that Johnny Depp has signed on to play Francisco "Pancho" Villa in the upcoming film Seven Friends of Pancho Villa and the Woman with Six Fingers, he can add mastering un acento Mexicano to his resume.  Not up to snuff on your historia?  Pancho Villa was one bad-ass Mexican Revolutionary general who served as governor over the División del Norte (the Northern Mexico state of Chihuahua) in the early 1900's.  Villa, who is best-known for overthrowing the dictatorial government of Victoriano Huerta, remains a national pop culture hero in Mexico today.

If we had to pick one non-Latino actor to play el jefe Mexicano, it would the bad boy of 21 Jump Street.  After all, if Johnny Depp can pull off a flamboyant Caribbean pirate with shades of Mick Jagger or a bloodthirsty barber with a penchant for musical asides, who says he can't fill los zapatos de un revolucionario padrísimo?  Joining Depp onscreen is real-life Mexicana Salma Hayek, which tells us that passion and romance will not be lacking in this flick!

Looks like you might need to keep the Tecate en hielo before celebrating this monumental movie release.  The film's director, Emir Kusturica, tells Blic.com that Seven Friends... will not begin shooting until 2010 or 2011, due to Depp's "already arranged obligations."  Kusturica and Depp have worked together previously on the 1993 film Arizona Dream.
