Olivia Wilde in BURT WONDERSTONE?
Still nothing official on this, but if it works out we may soon get a chance to watch Olivia Wilde in a comedy, guys! Not bad, right?
I’m not sure if we previously wrote about this project, but it definitely sounds familiar. Don Scardino will direct a magician comedy titled Burt Wonderstone, and we already have Steve Carell and Jim Carrey on board for the whole thing. Damn right, this sure is familiar!
This project comes from Horrible Bosses scribes John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein with a polish by Jason Reitman, and it centers on a Las Vegas magician who breaks up with his partner and is then upstaged by a hipper magician doing dangerous and crowd-drawing tricks.
How Hollywood is Destroying My Childhood One Film at a Time
I grew up in the 80s-90s. Memories of my childhood include watching Saturday morning cartoons, being amazed and frustrated by my NES and reruns of classic sitcoms and TGIF. I was (and still am) and avid reader, and devoured just about anything I could get my hands on.
I was a bit too young for Generation X and bit too old for Generation Y – I’m not really sure what that makes me, but here I stand another cog in the corporate machine. Things started off so slowly I chose to write it off at first. Hollywood was rewriting my childhood. Yet what started off as a trickle has turned into a veritable avalanche and it seems no cherished memory is safe.
Scarlett Johansson Joins Can a Song Save Your Life?
Can a song save your life? Have you ever asked yourself that question? Well, just in case your answer is ‘yes’, here’s the perfect project for you – the upcoming John Carney’s movie titled Can A Song Save Your Life?
Interesting title, and even more interesting rumors, because we’ve just learned that Scarlett Johansson is set to star in it, while Mark Ruffalo and Jim Carrey have been rumored as the possible leads!
Set in New York, the film tells the story of a washed-up A&R man who forms a passionate bond with a young singer-songwriter from out of town.
Of course, Johansson is set to play that young singer, and logically, she will sing a number of songs in the film.
