It looks like 2009 will truly be the year of Amy Adams. Three of her films will be released in a row – Sunshine Cleaning in March, Julie & Julia in April August and Night at the Museum 2 in May 2009. On top of this, if Amy accepts Leap Year, she will be filming it from mid-February onwards. Also, Adams was previously reported to have joined the cast of Greenburg, to be filmed late this year. Unfortunately, the status of that project is unknown at the moment. We will keep you posted!

Update: Thanks to MP for the heads up: Julie & Julia has been pushed back to August 7, 2009.

Miss Amy was snapped on the set of Night at the Museum 2 again in New York on August 19. I’ve added 20 MQ sized images of this sighting as well as lots more from the previous day’s set.

Again, watch out for possible spoilers if you want to know zero about the film before seeing it!

Christopher Guest is taking it up to 11 for Fox’s sequel to Night at the Museum.

The Spinal Tap star has joined the cast as Ivan the Terrible for the comedy adventure, officially titled Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian.

Also joining the cast are Jon Bernthal (Al Capone), Bill Hader (Gen. George Armstrong Custer) and French actor Alain Chabat (Napoleon).

The film, directed by Shawn Levy, reunites lead Ben Stiller with castmates Robin Williams, Ricky Gervais and Owen Wilson.

Robert Ben Garant and Thomas Lennon, who penned both Museum films, will make a cameo in the sequel, playing the Wright brothers.

Night at the Museum 2: Escape from the Smithsonian has began filming in Vancouver, Canada and will film there for the next three months.

Production on the biggest movie to shoot here this summer is finally getting underway. The mega-budget Night at the Museum 2: Escape from the Smithsonian will be shooting here for the next three months, and will bring a plethora of stars to our city. Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Amy Adams, Dick Van Dyke, Hank Azaria and Ricky Gervais will all make appearances in the comedy sequel. The first movie was shot here a couple of years ago, and had one of the largest-ever budgets for a Vancouver-made movie.
