Apple's WWDC hitting San Francisco on June 11th

It's time to shift around that summer vacation. Apple today announced that it will be kicking off this year's World Wide Developers Conference on June 11th at San Francisco's Moscone West. The event is set to run through the 15th, focusing on developing for OS X Mountain Lion and iOS, by way of 100-plus technical sessions and hands-on labs, letting the developer community work directly with Cupertino staff -- and you can bet we'll be there as well. More info on the event -- including ticket purchasing details -- can be found in the press release after the break.

Update: Aaand, it's sold out. After two hours, Apple is saying that no more tickets are available. Looks like you're going to have to enjoy some post-show videos instead.

Carphone Warehouse outs 'Samsung Galaxy S3' with tiny teaser pic

Android CentralLast week we saw the the first retailer listing for the Samsung Galaxy S3 over on Amazon Germany, and today the plot thickens with a new stub appearing on Carphone Warehouse's "coming soon" page. The independent retailer lists the device, currently acknowledged by Samsung as the "next Galaxy", alongside a diminutive preview shot that's so tiny and generic it's impossible to tell whether it's an official render or not. If nothing else, it has its buttons in the right place for a Samsung phone -- you can clearly see a power button on the right and volume rocker on the left.

What's also intriguing is the slow gravitation we're seeing towards the "Galaxy S3" name rather than anything else. Over the past few days we've seen references to that name exactly -- Galaxy S3, not S 3 or S III -- leak out on Amazon, the official "Unpacked" app in the Google Play Store, and now CPW. Despite rumors that Samsung may attempt to ape Apple's naming scheme with a "new Galaxy S", we think the S3 name makes more sense in terms of branding. A "new Galaxy S" is too confusing for consumers upgrading from the S II, considering how schizophrenic Samsung's Galaxy branding already is across its phone and Tab lines. And a "Galaxy S III" with three as roman numerals isn't as instantly recognizable -- your brain takes a few more seconds to process those pesky three lines and differentiate "III" from "II".

Whatever the case, we're still in rumor territory with regards to much of what we "know" about this device. And we're not expecting that to change until the Galaxy S3, or whatever it's called, is unveiled in London on May 3.

'I love them!' the actress says about filmmakers Andy and Lana Wachowski.

After filmmakers Andy and Lana Wachowski tackle the ambitious task of turning "Cloud Atlas" — a hulking novel taking place in six separate time periods from the 19th century to a post-apocalyptic, virtually-technology free future — into a feature film, the siblings will direct "Jupiter Ascending." While all involved are tight-lipped on the sci-fi flick's plot, we learned back in March that Warner Bros., the studio behind the project, offered lead roles to Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis.

On Tuesday evening (April 24) at CinemaCon, Kunis herself confirmed that she'll star in the film, exclusively giving MTV News' Josh Horowitz the scoop. Before he could even finish his question regarding whether the rumors are true and whether she's read a script, Kunis nodded her head and blurted out, "Yes."

"I love them!" she said about the Wachowskis.

When Horowitz joked, "Thanks for spilling all the beans on that one," Kunis laughed and responded, "Listen, I told you I'm doing it. That's the most I've told anybody."

When Deadline Hollywood first broke the news of the film, they described it as the Wachowskis' "first major science fiction action franchise play since 'The Matrix,' " which hopefully means audiences will be treated to a series of movies.

While 2012 seems to be the year of Channing Tatum, with hits like "The Vow," "21 Jump Street" and the upcoming summer films "Magic Mike" and "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," Kunis also has a full cinematic plate. She stars in the raunchy comedy "Ted" and the "Wizard of Oz" prequel "Oz: The Great and Powerful," which stars James Franco, Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz.

"Jupiter Ascending" is set to hit theaters in 2014.

Check out everything we've got on "Cloud Atlas."
