Steve Zahn

Jennifer Aniston wore gray from head to toe alongside her costar Steve Zahn at a screening of Management in NYC last night. Jennifer and Steve have known each other since he guest starred on Friends in the second season and he's still impressed when he gets recognized for it. This movie might not have as splashy a premiere as Jennifer's last two blockbusters but she's still out promoting it including her completely adorable stop off to visit Jimmy Fallon.

Critics may draw comparisons between this year's Sunshine Cleaning and 2007 Best Picture nominee Little Miss Sunshine. Both were Sundance darlings, both star the wonderful Alan Arkin, and both have optimistic-sounding titles. And despite each film's light-bright disposition, both skew closer to comedy of the darker sort. This intriguing juxtaposition worked quite well for Little Miss Sunshine, and, to a slightly lesser extent, it works for Sunshine Cleaning, too.

The off-kilter premise is what first drew me to the movie when I previewed it for last year's Sundance Film Festival. I loved that the film focuses on the dirty and demeaning task of cleaning up crime scenes, yet didn't seem as gloomy as the description suggested. By the time I saw the trailer, it was clear: No CSI confusion here. Luckily the film delighted me as much as I had hoped, mostly because the two lead actresses, Amy Adams and Emily Blunt, are so compelling to watch.

When I think of Jennifer Aniston, things that immediately spring to mind include stuff like high-profile relationships (and breakups), really toned arms, nice tan, perfect hair. In other words, she can sometimes seem larger than life, and it's easy to forget that she can still play the "everyday gal" with the best of them.

I loved her in The Good Girl and really enjoyed her performances in Office Space and Friends with Money, which is why it's exciting to get a good look at Management, a movie in which she portrays a pretty average lady alongside Steve Zahn and Woody Harrelson.

That said, um, I don't know what to make of this movie. The essentials all seem to be there (quirky with emotional depth) but something is a touch off about it. There are some strange scenes with Zahn flying through the air and dropping into pools, and Zahn on a tandem bike, etc. And then there are more earnest moments that look like they're aiming for realism. I'm up in the air about this one, but I'll keep an open mind.

Management will have a limited release on May 15. To check out the trailer and tell me what you think, just read more

I remember when I first heard the casting news for the romantic comedy Management, and it seemed like an awesome idea to pair up the underrated (in my opinion) Steve Zahn with Jennifer Aniston. And ever since the movie earned some positive buzz after debuting at the Toronto International Film Festival, I've been anxious to see some footage.

Now we've got a clip from the movie, which is funny and gives me a better sense of the tone. Looks like another quirky, subtle performance from Aniston (like what I enjoyed about her in The Good Girl) and Zahn is subdued but no less hilarious. The movie follows a traveling art saleswoman and the hotel manager who stalks her has a crush on her. In this clip we see Aniston's character encouraging Zahn's character to touch her butt. Yes, that is what I said. To see for yourself, read more

As pinkberry trail blazes through LA and NYC, the yogurt trend is catching on like wildfire. If you haven't given YoBaby yogurt to your lil one, not only is your babe missing out, but so are you.

In the upcoming issue of People, actor Steve Zahn, father of two, lamented about his own consumption of the delicious snack.

He said:

YoBaby yogurt is very good for your baby. Just don't finish it when they eat half of it because you'll get fat in one week. I think I gained 20 lbs in a month just finishing off their food!

The yummy and nutritious treat is available in blueberry, apple, pear, peach, banana, vanilla, strawberry/cereal and mixed berry/cereal flavors.

Every Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I post a Recast challenge, where I ask you to choose new actors for a classic TV show or movie. The reader who submits the best cast wins a BuzzSugar t-shirt!

For this week's recast challenge, let's tap into the angst of Generation X and find a new group of actors for Reality Bites, Ben Stiller's 1994 directorial debut. There's the pouty Lelaina, scruffball Troy, square Michael, promiscuous Gap employee Vickie and commitmentphobe Sammy. What new actors could dredge up some mid-1990s anguish for a new Reality Bites?

Leave your entry in the comment section below, and I'll pick one winner to feature Tuesday, December 4, complete with a "new" cast photo.

How many endearingly nerdy young men can you fit in one comedy about nature shows and not go into silliness overload?

I do believe Strange Wilderness addresses that question as Jonah Hill, Justin Long and Steve Zahn play guys whose nature show is getting terrible ratings (for reasons you'll understand if you watch the trailer). So the group ventures into the great unknown in search of Big Foot.

I don't know if this will be an overall satisfying comedy like some of those that came out over this past summer (Knocked Up, Superbad), but there are some funny lines in the trailer. To watch the preview for Strange Wilderness, which opens February 1, and tell me what you think, read more
