The Trailer for Leo's 11th Hour
Soon after this year's Oscars, I heard tell of Leonardo DiCaprio's environmentally themed documentary, and now the movie has a trailer and a release date of August 17. Back then, DiCaprio was described as "using the medium that he knows best to explore the problem of global warming by making a documentary that is almost a film... the feature-length film even tries to proffer solutions for restoring the Earth's ecosystems."
Tom Cruise to Grace the Big Screen Again
Well, Tom Cruise is asking us to take him seriously again, by agreeing to star in a World War II thriller that he is also producing. It's going to be tough, especially with the grave subject matter, to watch this crazy egomaniac without rolling my eyes. But I have faith in director Bryan Singer, responsible for the excellent film The Usual Suspects and executive producer of Fox's "House."
Jolie Staying Busy With Wanted
Just last week, Angelina Jolie said she wanted to spend some time as a stay-at-home mom with her ever-expanding brood. But it seems turning down movie roles is not her strong suit. After signing on for Clint Eastwood's next movie, The Changeling, which begins shooting this Fall, the actress has also agreed to star in Wanted, an action film based on a graphic novel.
Cate Blanchett Eyes Indiana Jones
As far as I'm concerned, Cate Blanchett can really do no wrong. I love watching this woman act, even in her more questionable movie roles. (Bandits, anyone?) So I'm just going to trust her instincts on this one: According to the Hollywood Reporter, Blanchett has signed on to star in Indiana Jones 4 alongside Harrison Ford.
Dreamy-Eyed Daniel Craig Considers Blindness
I always love an excuse to write about Daniel Craig — it means looking for photos of him, after all — but this news is particularly cool. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the James Bond actor is in talks to star in Blindness, a movie based on the Jose Saramago novel of the same name.
Julianne Moore is also being considered, which is interesting, since the premise reminds me a bit of Children of Men.
Rainn Wilson to Join Juno Cast
Wow, I was excited when I found out Michael Cera and Jennifer Garner were going to be in a movie together. But now that Rainn Wilson (Dwight Schrute on "The Office") has signed on, I am nearly beside myself!
The dark comedy, called Juno and directed by Jason Reitman, stars Ellen Page as a teen facing an unplanned pregnancy.
Clint Eastwood Looking to Direct Angelina
Angelina Jolie has her hands full with adoptions these days, but Clint Eastwood's arms are noticeably empty of Oscar statuettes. Perhaps that's one reason the nominated Letters from Iwo Jima director is eyeing The Changeling for his next project. Variety is reporting that Eastwood could soon be working with Jolie on the highly anticipated new film from Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment.
Will Smith Loves to Warm Hearts
Who can resist a Cinderella story? Certainly not Will Smith, who has just signed on to produce The Pursuit of Happyness 2 another rags-to-riches film based on an inspiring memoir. The book, called Cooked: From the Streets to the Stove, From Cocaine to Foie Gras, tells the life story of Jeff Henderson, a former drug dealer who worked his way up to become "Chef Jeff," executive chef at Las Vegas' Cafe Bellagio.
Streep and Brosnan to Star in Mamma Mia
Firstly: "Mamma Mia!" as a movie. It's true: The Broadway musical based on the campy songs of Swedish pop group ABBA is going to be made into a film.
Matthew McConaughey, Surfer Dude
Well, Matthew McConaughey may have just found the movie role of his lifetime. According to Variety, the oft-shirtless actor has signed on to star in Surfer Dude, a movie about — hang on to your bongos, people — "a soulful surfer in existential crisis."
Let's all just take a moment to let that sink in.
