Movie Preview: Bug
Having seen the play on which Bug is based and knowing what Exorcist director William Friedkin can do, I'm curious to find out how Bug will adapt to the big screen. The story follows an ex-military man (Michael Shannon) and a lonely woman (Ashley Judd) as they become gradually convinced that their bodies are infested with bugs.
From what I remember of the play, the action takes place almost entirely in one room, and I've heard the same is true for the movie.
The Results Are In: Recast Steel Magnolias
For last week's Recast challenge, I had BuzzSugar readers pursue a perfect new cast for the irresistible Southern chick-flick, Steel Magnolias. In my opinion, this was one of the toughest Recasts to date, so I was astounded by how many great submissions came in.
I loved RCLdesigngirl's choice of Amy Adams to play Shelby, and her casting of Meryl Streep as Clairee was echoed by several other users, including Erinnoelle and lslybnks.
