The actor, who is a follower of Scientology, thinks the only way mankind may be able to survive the impending environmental disaster is to colonise another world.

Travolta - who infuriated environmentalists by flying his private jet to the London premiere of his new film 'Wild Hogs' - told BANG Showbiz: "I think that everyone can do their bit, but I'm wondering if we have to start thinking about other planets and also domed cities, because I don't know if there's a way to repair these holes in the sky."

Their sudden discovery around Fraser Island was being blamed on global warming.

Army is reportedly set in a not-too-distant future where the city of Las Vegas has been quarantined. The action revolves around a father who tries to save his daughter from the zombies.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office has opted to not file charges against the former lead vocalist of the Illinois punk band Mest, who was arrested Sunday on suspicion of murder and booked for criminal homicide.

The 26-year-old rocker claimed that he stabbed Wayne Hughes, 25, in self-defense after the two got into an argument Sunday shortly after 8 a.m. in the parking garage of a Studio City apartment building where a woman who authorities say both men dated lives.

Prosecutors found "insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the killing was not a justifiable use of reasonable force in self-defense," D.A.'s Office spokeswoman Jane Robison said.

Lovato called 911 himself and willingly surrendered when officers arrived at the scene Sunday, Los Angeles Police Department spokesman Lieutenant Andrew Neiman said.

The "Jaded" rocker told police that Hughes had assaulted him and then, "at some point, Mr. Lovato produced a knife and the victim was stabbed," Neiman said.
