Ashton Kutcher
Ashton Kutcher is set to produce and star in Columbia Pictures’ upcoming multigenerational fatherhood comedy “Like Father,” says Variety. (The Hollywood Reporter claims it’s “Father’s Day“)
The film will be scripted by Ian Deitchman and Kristin Robinson.
The story revolves around a father and son who never got along but coincidentally have baby sons at the same time and are forced to go through the fatherhood experience together.
Kutcher most recently co-starred with Cameron Diaz in Tom Vaughan’s “What Happens in Vegas.” He will next be seen alongside Michelle Pfeiffer in David Hollander’s indie drama “Personal Effects.”
Second “Ghost Town” Poster
Second poster for the upcoming “Ghost Town” comedy, starring Ricky Gervais, Tea Leoni and Greg Kinnear has been released, featuring a shot of Gervais being bothered by a Kinnear’s ghost.
In the comedy “Ghost Town”, Bertram Pincus (Ricky Gervais) is a man whose people skills leave much to be desired. When Pincus dies unexpectedly, but is miraculously revived after seven minutes, he wakes up to discover that he now has the annoying ability to see ghosts. Even worse, they all want something from him, particularly Frank Herlihy (Greg Kinnear), who pesters him into breaking up the impending marriage of his widow Gwen (Tea Leoni). That puts Pincus squarely in the middle of a triangle, with spirited results. Read the rest of this entry
Tom Cruise to Star in Comedy “Food Fight”
Tom Cruise has been linked to Universal’s new high school cafeteria comedy “Food Fight“.
Cruise would play a snooty New York chef who, for some odd reason, is forced to cook in a school cafeteria.
Taking a step into comedy sounds like a good step for Cruise. As already said, he’s terrific in “Tropic Thunder“. He’s never really made a purely comedic film, only films with comedic elements, and that’s not for want of comedy talent.
Veteran scribe Adam Brooks who wrote and directed the enjoyable film “Definitely, Maybe” is attached to write the screenplay. A search for a director is under way.
Cruise next stars in historical action film “Valkyrie“, in which he plays a very serious role: Klaus von Stauffenberg, the Nazi commander who plotted to kill Hitler. I can’t wait to see it. From sneak preview reports - it’s a must-see movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
“College” Restricted Clip
The trailer for the upcoming comedy “College” has been released, showing a bunch of high-school kids desperately trying to pick up some college chicks.
A new outrageous comedy, is the story of three high school seniors (Drake Bell, Andrew Caldwell and Kevin Covais) who visit a local college campus as prospective freshman anticipating the best weekend of their lives. Once there, the rowdiest fraternity on campus (featuring Nick Zano, Gary Owen and Zach Cregger) decides to recruit the boys as “pledges,” subjecting them to endless humiliations, in return for granting them access to the no-holds-barred college party scene. But once the boys catch the eye of some of the older sorority girls (Haley Bennett, Camille Mana and Natalie Walker), the threatened Frat-boys increase the pre-frosh humiliation and blackmail them by threatening to expose their age. The boys decide to fight back, retaliating with a major revenge scheme that lands them on top. Read the rest of this entry
