Oscar winners’ next projects

"The Hurt Locker" won six Oscars on Sunday, including trophies for director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal. But even before the film won the top awards, the duo already had plans to collaborate again on the South America-set thriller "Triple Frontier," which will be similar in style to their Oscar champ. While Boal is working on the script, Bigelow will direct the pilot for the HBO series "The Miraculous Year," a family drama centered on a larger-than-life Broadway composer.

Jeff Bridges

Fans of the Dude can rejoice that Bridges is about to collaborate again with his Lebowski masters, Joel and Ethan Coen, on a remake of the western “True Grit.” John Wayne got an Oscar for playing the role of Rooster Cogburn in 1969. Can it do the same for Bridges?

But before that, Bridges will appear in the long-awaited sequel to “Tron,” titled “Tron Legacy.” The film will be out in December.  (Valerie Macon AFP / Getty Images)

Christoph Waltz

The Austrian actor’s scenery chewing in “Inglourious Basterds” not only earned him a supporting actor Oscar, but it also seemed to have set him up to be Hollywood’s go-to villain. For a little while, anyway. He’s playing the baddie in this December’s “Green Hornet” movie, starring Seth Rogen.  (Valerie Macon / AFP/Getty Images)

Geoffrey Fletcher

The screenwriter of “Precious” was a surprise Oscar winner at the ceremony, but he’s not slowing down to enjoy the limelight. He’s writing the prison drama “Attica” for director Doug Liman and is working on setting up his own project to direct.  (Craig Barritt / Getty Images)
