Julian Assange’s saga isn’t quite over yet, but there are already several studios and networks working on the Wikileaks mastermind’s life’s inevitable cinematic portrayal. (Vulture)

ABC’s “Once Upon A Time” adds another fairytale character to its roster, despite her decidedly non-fairytale background. Jamie Chung (“Sucker Punch,” “The Hangover 2”) has been cast as Mulan for the show. (EW)

Kelly Ripa’s about to get a co-host. She’s currently still “auditioning” co-hosts, but the frontrunner is the wisecracking Seth Meyers from “SNL.” (Variety)

Odd Future cutie and rising hip-hop star (that’s him singing in the beginning background of Luhrmann’s “The Great Gatsby” trailer) Frank Ocean revealed to fans that he’s interested in men, meaning that he’s either bisexual or gay. Despite OF’s considerable homophobic lyrical content, fans and fellow musicians are all applauding one of the few vocal homosexual hip-hop stars out there. (Stereogum)

Tina Fey continues being one of the funniest people on the planet with a guest verse on Childish Gambino’s (aka “Community’s” Donald Glover) Fourth of July mixtape, “Royalty.” Check out her verse on the track “Real Estate” below. (HuffPo Celeb)
