| Bryan Singer to direct "X-Men: First Class"? |
[Dec. 16th, 2009|11:31 pm] |
James Cameron's Avatar is having its premiere in Los Angeles tonight, and MySpace has a television crew on-hand at the "blue carpet" to interview arrivals.
One of the people on hand was director Bryan Singer, who directed X-Men and X2 for Avatar distributor 20th Century Fox at the start of the decade. In recent interviews, Singer has been asked about possibly directing the planned prequel X-Men: First Class, and he always seemed interested but earlier this evening, he let slip that he has in fact just signed the deal with Fox to direct the next "Origins" film, which will reportedly look at the early days of Cyclops, Jean Grey and others at the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning.
This is very exciting news for "X-Men" fans who have been hoping Singer would return to the fold and hopefully we'll have more to report on this news soon as others attending the Avatar event get more details on the deal.
(We're adding a question mark and keeping this one in the rumor bin for now. Having missed Singer on the live feed and only heard what he said--and knowing how many times he is probably asked about returning to "X-Men"--we better wait for confirmation from the trades in case he was pulling the interviewer's leg with his statement.)

| Jake wanted to marry his beard |
[Dec. 17th, 2009|11:17 am] |
Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal officially pulled the plug on their three-year relationship over a series of phone calls earlier this month. Why over the phone? Jake has been in Pittsburgh the past three months shooting his new movie, Love And Other Drugs. Reese has been busy filming How Do You Know? in Los Angeles. “It broke his heart,” an insider reveals to Us Weekly. “[They] fought constantly in the past few months [but] no one cheated. There was no drama.” “She felt pressured to wed again but she wasn’t ready,” another insider adds. “She couldn’t give Jake enough and she got cold feet. Jake wanted all of her. She really worried that they didn’t have enough in common… He was great with the kids (Ava and Deacon), but she felt like he didn’t get the whole scope of what that entailed.”

| Rachel McAdams talks about Lindsay in Vogue |
[Dec. 16th, 2009|10:44 pm] |
In the past few years, a quiet yet remarkably talented actress by the name of Rachel McAdams has worked her way to the silver screen, and now she's also made her way to the cover of Vogue. Posing in a flower printed red Dolce & Gabbana dress and matching red stilettos, the “Sherlock Holmes” star graces the January 2010 issue. In the mag, which hits stands on December 22, the actress talks working with Lindsay Lohan, her fascination with soap operas and much more.
In 2004, Rachel's career jump-started when she starred in “Mean Girls” playing queen bee Regina George alongside Lindsay. “I just remember marveling about how much [Lindsay] knew as an actor, how much she understood," Rachel recalled. "She did very few takes and had this naturalness to her. And beyond that, I was 26 at the time. I’d be asked, ‘Where do you go out?'"
And while the actress who made "Boo, you whore" a common catchphrase among teenage girls, Rachel reveals that she wasn’t anything like her narcissistic character. "My mother never put an emphasis on looks. She let us grow up on our own time line. She never forced any beauty regimen into my world." In fact, mom didn’t even put a heavy emphasis on shaving either, which often made a high-school-aged Rachel the subject of jokes about hairy legs. "'Why didn’t you tell me?'" she remembered asking her mom later on.

| Shahrukh pulls an "I Am Sam" with "My Name Is Khan" |
[Dec. 16th, 2009|07:43 pm] |
In follow up to this post.
The official trailer has been released for Shahrukh Khan's "My Name Is Khan," where he plays an Indian man with Asperger's syndrome, post 9/11.
It looks good - and it looks serious. SRK might have actual talent to match his good looks. Color me surprised. (To be honest, he and Saif Ali Khan could read the phone book and I'd be happy as a clam - but even I know this doesn't make him talented.)

| Priest ENRAGED by Glee Hiatus! |
[Dec. 17th, 2009|10:37 pm] |
Father Alexander Santora happened to catch the pilot of Fox's "Glee" - and he was hooked.
"It's ushering in something upbeat and vital even if it's a little kooky," says the New Jersey priest. "I even preached about it one Sunday, highlighting the importance of belonging to a group as a way to shape one's self-esteem and identity."
Father Santora isn't the only one who's been charmed by the energetic "Glee." Just Tuesday it scored four Golden Globe nominations.
But anyone inclined to tune in to "Glee" Wednesday and check out the buzz will need some patience. ( he's not that mad ) |

Dec 15: Taylor Momsen walks around the Chelsea set of 'Gossip Girl' in NYC
( More.. )
Josh Schwartz talks to TVGuide.com about Jenny's character.
TVGuide.com: What are you gearing towards in the season's second half?
Josh Schwartz: You're really going to see a real emotional arc from Chuck [Ed Westwick]. I think Jenny [Taylor Momsen] and Chuck are really going to be driving a lot of story as we move into the back half of the season.
TVGuide.com: Jenny and Eric (Connor Paolo) called a truce in the last episode. Will that actually stick?
Schwartz: They've called a truce with each other, but Jenny's troubles are just beginning. She's still very much a teenage girl, she's grown up with these kids who are older than her and always wanted to be a part of that, but she's going to find out that she's not quite as adult and grown up as she thinks she is.
TVGuide.com: Do you see any futures episodes of plot lines that will cause this kind of controversy again?
Schwartz: Keep your eye on little Jenny Humphrey.
