According to "MovieWeb"
Lydia Hearst (model, heir to the Hearst publishing fortune and daughter of Patty Hearst) will join
Joan Collins in
DOGS IN POCKETBOOKS, a spoof on celebrity obsession,
about a bratty movie goddess in and out of rehab, in trouble with the law, and hounded by greedy agents, predatory paparazzi, off-the-wall stalkers and crazed media, a role obviously based on
Lindsay Lohan.
Here's the first photo from the film I'm really excited about - you've read about
UPSIDE DOWN many times before at
HOLLYWOOD SPY. This romantic sf film follows Adam (
Jim Sturgess), a seemingly ordinary guy in a very extraordinary universe. He lives
humbly trying to make ends meet, but his romantic spirit holds on to the memory of a girl he met once upon a time from another world, an inverted affluent world with its own gravity, directly above but beyond reach... a girl named Eve (
Kirsten Dunst). Their childhood flirtation becomes an impossible love. But when he catches a glimpse of grown up Eve on television, nothing will get in the way of getting her back... Not even the law or science! Look up towards the sky and rub your eyes because you
won't believe what you see: cities, forests, and oceans with their own inverted gravity, only an arm's length away, yet completely unreachable. Take a leap over
to this alternate reality, two worlds - one above, one below facing each other, and you'll land in the extraordinary world of
UPSIDE DOWN.
This sounds quite crazy: according to "Deadline"
Simon Baker, the star of
THE MENTALIST, the show about a well-known psychic who helps FBI to solve crimes, has signed a new contract with
Warner Bros. TV which will bring him a shocking amount of more than $30 million, adding another year to his current six-year commitment to the show. He will also be credited as the producer from Season 5 and will also receive more money from the back end revenue.
I will probably skip Dogs in Pocketbooks, although it sounds like this movie is something a lot of celebrities need to watch.
ReplyDeleteUpside Down sounds good, even though I dislike Dunst.
Wow, I got all excited when you mentioned Simon Baker, then I realized after glancing at the photo, you were not referring to the Simon Baker I like. Lol, there are two Simon Bakers in the acting world and the guy I like has not filmed in awhile and I was hoping this was him.
I am very, very excited Upside Down. It is such an intriguing story idea, an original twist on a familiar theme.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming to The Book Boost, yesterday. I love you! :)
I really like the idea of Upside Down. Anything that messes with the laws of science are a good watch in my books :P
ReplyDeleteSo funny, when I was reading the description of Dogs in Pocketbooks I was wondering why Lindsay wasn't in it. :)

Wow, a Hearst! How interesting... And that Upside Down really does sound cool! Can't wait~ :o) <3
ReplyDeleteFYI, that is NOT a picture of JIM STURGESS with Kirsten. Don't know who the guy is, but it's not Jim. :(
ReplyDeleteUpside Down looks fascinating.
ReplyDeleteSimon Baker is a very smart businessman! I 1st noticed him in The Devil Wears Prada & admired his success as a writer.
Dogs in Pocketbooks sounds like fun....
ReplyDeleteThey should get Lindsay Lohan to actually do a cameo.
@Avalon
ReplyDeletesorry to disappoint you Avalon :) I'm not sure which Simon Baker you mean. Some older actor?
@Melissa

@Jamie

@Mason
ReplyDeleteLindsay was delayed by some private problems to star in the story of her own life :)
@Leigh
hey, Leigh, glad you liked both stories! ;)
@Fantasy Girl
ah, my dear, nobody said it was Sturgess, the post just says it's the first pic from the film ;)
@Lisa
ReplyDeletehey, I don't remember him in DEVIL WEARS PRADA, what did he play in that film?
@Andrew
yep, she deserves at least that!
Upsdie Down sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'd take $15 million.
I'm more modest than you, I'd do a season for $1 million ... hell .. I'd do it for $100,000!
ReplyDeletewow! that poster for UPSIDE DOWN is GORGEOUS!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous isn't it? I've posted it before and you were all amazed back then as well. It's very lyrical!
ReplyDeleteNo, he is young, maybe 21, something like that, not sure. He is Native American. He played the Apache Cate Blanchett stitched up in the Missing and played Loved by the Buffalo from Into the West and several other lesser known films that you probably have not seen. These were probably just released in America, not sure.
ReplyDeleteDezmond, I just noticed RA made it to another one of your polls and I see the RA fans are still here:)
ReplyDeleteRA ladies are always lurking around :) They actually love Dezz much more than they love Richard ^_^
ReplyDeletewow, This is my first time learning about Upside Down. I can't wait to see more. Thanks for posting this Dez!
ReplyDeleteMaybe that is true in my case..........
