Since it seems crazy comedies are currently trendy in cinemas, this one might sound interesting to most of you. According to "Variety" everyone's favourite
Reese Witherspoon might take
the lead role in Dreamwork's project
WHO INVITED HER? The studio has lead a real war for the script rights for this hilarious comedy in which Reese could play a woman who insists on tagging along on a guy's bachelor party weekend. Reese will also produce this film, just like she is producing
THIS MEANS WAR in which
Chris Pine and
Tom Hardy are playing two guys literally battling over a woman played by Witherspoon.
SHORT HEADLINES Universal is trying to get
Roland Emmerich behind the helm of their huge sf film
ASTEROIDS in which the remnants of human civilization are living on far-flung
colonies within an asteroid belt alongside aliens. The survivors were led to believe that this alien civilization was benevolent, rescuing them from doom, but they ultimately discover that the aliens have engineered Earth’s destruction, and soon will do the same for the rest of humankind.
Jake Gyllenhaal and
Olivia Wilde could take roles in
NOW YOU SEE ME, a
Louis Leterrier's film about a group of world's best magicians who use their powers and skills to rob banks after which they throw all the money to their audience.
Oooh, again two of my favourite movie creatures in the same project: amazing British lad
Matthew Goode (LEAP YEAR, WATCHMEN) might take the role in
STOKER, a film based on
Wentworth Miller's script. As you remember
I already wrote about Wentworth writing screenplays beside acting, and this one
will have Mia Wasikowska (whom I'm not overly amazed by) as a girl mourning the loss of her father and
Matthew Goode will play the mysterious uncle who shows up unexpectedly after the death, while
Nicole Kidman will portray the girl's mother. Produced by Ridley and Toni Scott, the film,
as reported previously in HOLLYWOOD SPY, had
Colin Firth, Michael Fassbender and
James Franco competing for the lead role.
This Means War sounds really funny! I love Chris Pine.
ReplyDeleteDayum! Throw a little water on a guy and he is prime and ready for Playgirl magazine! I'm so gonna be staring at that pic of Jake for like an hour...or until my keyboard gets hella sticky ;)
ReplyDelete@Raquel
ReplyDeleteit could be a lovely romcom in a unique, warring way :)
@Captain
well, thanks for the very vivid mental picture :))
Ah, Dezzy. That's for the Gyllenhaal pic! Yummy.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love Reese. She's a cutie. =D
yep, two cuties for the cute you today :)
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what Wentworth Miller had been up to. Thanks for the info Dez.
ReplyDeleteASTEROIDS sounds cool. Gotta love benevolent aliens turned bad ;)
ReplyDelete@Ricky
ReplyDeletehey, Ricks, I mentioned Wenty last week as well, check it out somewhere bellow :)
@Lyndy
yep, until those aliens happen to us personally :)
reese witherspoon often has some very cute movies. i personally think she's producing the this means war one, just so that she can be fought over by those two gents. :P
ReplyDeleteWow, I never saw Reese Witherspoon look like that. She always does well with those comedies. Bread and butter.
ReplyDeletewill reese ever top election is the question.
ReplyDeleteI'm really digging the Stoker project. Should be an entertaining film. The cast is rounding up nicely.
ReplyDeleteWho Invited Her? sounds like it could have real possibilities!
ReplyDeleteHi Dez! (I'm back from my trip) I'm VERY eager to see how Stoker will turn out!
ReplyDeleteReese needs to stop making all those rom-coms. She is so much better than that, she needs get back to the edgy characters she used to play.
ReplyDeleteEveryone's favourite Reese Witherspoon, is she your favourite too? :)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I want to complete your info, "Stoker" will be directed by one of the best directors from Asia, Park Chan-wook :)
Magicians stealing from the banks and throwing the money to an audience is got to be a crowd pleaser.
ReplyDeleteReese has IT, doesn't she? The movie can be bland and she gives it the kiss of life. Mind you, not even she could save Four Christmases. Gawdawful.
I like reese witherspoon :P
ReplyDeleteShe's pretty hot haha.
Who invited her has possibilities.
ReplyDeleteThis Means War? Yes please,look aces!!
ReplyDeleteGreat info as always Dezzy!
I'm loving these two new Reese projects. She has a knack for comedy. Matthew Goode looks delicious so thanks for this pic. ;) He is gorgeous and I'll watch anything he's in.
ReplyDeleteR W is soooo hot!
ReplyDelete@Vics
ReplyDeleteyou mean you wouldn't personally like to find yourself in such situation? :))
@E
Somebody mentioned ELECTION recently too, but I've never seen it.
@Luanne
I tried very hard to find a hot pic of Reese since this is kinda a HOT BLUE Friday at HOLLYWOOD SPY :))
@Matty
it's an interesting cast if we don't count Wasikowska, and I expect from story to be unusual given that Wenty is the writer :)
@Debra
ReplyDeleteit certainly could, it could be a female HANGOVER or something :)
@Samantha
welcome back, Sam, hope you had a nice time at your travelling
@Castor
and what's wrong with romcoms? Heartwarming, positive stories celebrating love and emotions can never be something wrong. I personally respect and admire romcom actors 100 times better than irresponsible and immature directors and actors who act in and produce dark, violent and aggressive films like Nollan, Fincher, Tarantino ...
@Jaccsy
ReplyDeleteI do like her but she's not my favourite of actresses :) And I did mention that the Asian director is doing STOKER each time I wrote about the film before, just click the red letter link in the post and you will see :)
@Michael
it is a crowd pleaser isn't it? I'd certainly be pleased if they'd shower me with money :)
Haven't seen FOUR CHRISTMASES although I wanted to :)
@Ben
glad you like her :)
@Lurk
ReplyDeleteit certainly does :)
@Custie
he he glad you like the news today ;)
@Melsy
ah, don;t mention MAtthew Goode. He is so charismatic and interesting, I just love watching him in all possible films of his. I heard he is privately quite arrogant, which I don't like, but we could teach him some manners if needed :))
@Jack
I'll tell her you said so :P
After all these years, Reese Witherspoon is still lookin good!
ReplyDeletehe he I knew me boys would like that pic of Reese :P
ReplyDeleteRW likes the attention! And who would blame her. Some great films coming up. I hope Firth gets the part.
ReplyDeleteI hate to admit it but I will watch any movie with Reese Witherspoon in it ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Dez ;0)
ReplyDeleteCritics can say what they like about Emmerich's films--I don't care, they are usually fun rides and this one sounds okay by me.
ReplyDeleteA movie about magicians is another one that catches my attention.
Lee
Tossing It Out
@Clarissa
ReplyDeletestars live for and from attention :) You didn't read the post carefully, Firth was competing for the role but it went to Goode :)
@Mike
she's your sinful pleasure :)
@Mary
thanks, Mary, you too, mine will be a working one with a midnight relaxing session for baking cakes :)
@Arlee
I'm looking forward to watching Emmerich's ANONYMOUS this autumn, which is his first medieval drama.
You and me giving lessons to arrogant man, why Dez you are so naughty. ;) That's what I love best about you besides your sweet personality, of course.
ReplyDeletehe he a mix of sweet and spicy, I heard that compliment before :) As in everything I like to develop balance within me when it comes to those things as well :)
ReplyDeleteAnd you know he would ask for additional lessons after we're done with him :)))
