Helmet heads Reese Witherspoon and Naomi Watts both have films coming out next year! Who rocks the motorcycle helmet and goggles more??

Naomi filmed upcoming film Eastern Promises this past weekend. Reese filmed upcoming film Penelope back in March 2006. Coincidentally, both filming locations were London, UK.

Eastern Promises is about a nurse (Watts) who, while trying to learn the identity of a young prostitute who died during child birth, is exposed to an underworld racket that is about to be broken up by the police. Out in limited release September 2007.

Penelope is about a woman born with the face of a pig (Christina Ricci) who tries to end her lifelong curse and find true love. Out in April 2007.

Naomi Watts was spotted in Long Island, NY earlier this month on the set of Michael Haneke’s upcoming film, Funny Games. Naomi, 38, is the lead in this film and doubling as an executive producer. Here’s a synopsis of the film:

In this exploration of our violent society and how depictions of violence reflect and shape our culture, director Michael Haneke retells the story, through the eyes of middle-class housewife Anna (Naomi Watts), of how she and her husband George (Tim Roth) and their 10 years old son Georgie, submitted both physically and mentally to the tortures and death enforced upon them by two young unexpected visitors at their weekend vacation retreat near the lake.

Funny Games is set for a 2007 release. More pictures in the gallery!

Above is Naomi Watts showing off her tennis skills against boyfriend Liev Schreiber in Brentwood, California this past Sunday.  Naomi, 37, and Liev, 38, later made their way to their local "Whole Foods" market to stock up on groceries. More pictures in the gallery!  Here’s the latest rumor in Hollywood movie news —

Austrian director Michael Janeke will direct a Hollywood remake of his controversial 1997 movie Funny Games, starring Tim Roth and Naomi Watts. Funny Games was nominated for the Palme D’Or at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival in France, and while it was a success at the European box office it barely registered in the US. It is unknown whether Janeke will tone down the violent scenes of torture that characterized the original movie, and divided critics, in his remake.

The Painted Veil is a love story set in the 1920s based on the classic novel by W. Somerset Maugham. It tells the story of a young English couple (a middle class doctor and an upper-class woman) who get married for the wrong reasons and relocate to Shanghai, where she is lured into an affair. When he uncovers the truth, he takes her into the heart of ancient China to confront a deadly epidemic, which is likely to kill them both. But what starts out as a fit of revenge takes an unexpected turn toward purpose and passion in one of the most remote and beautiful places on earth.
