It’s Complicated Trailer: Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin Get It On

5 November 2009 6:22 PM, PST | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

Alec Baldwin is randomly crying. Meryl Streep is a little bit of a slut. Steve Martin, still crazy. And writer/director Nancy Meyers -- purveyor of such estrogen-infused classics as What Women Want, Something's Gotta Give and The Holiday -- is back again for another round of romcom with It's Complicated. This time, she's taking the story of a divorced woman (Streep) who starts having a fling with her fast-talking ex-husband (Baldwin), even though he's now married to a younger woman (Lake Bell) and she's got a thing with her architect (Steve Martin). It's all very derivative -- the kind of romantic comedy you take with a dose of promethazine (via suppository, of course) for your arthritis. You know, the ultimate sequel to Meyers' Mel Gibson collaboration, What Old People Want. Alas, there is no doubt that Alec Baldwin will be his stock brand of hilarious and Meryl Streep will be her stock brand of graceful, classy »

Johnny Depp in talks to replace Sam Worthington in ‘The Tourist’

5 November 2009 9:06 AM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »

The large round of musical chairs for the The Tourist continues.

Last month we reported that Angelina Jolie replaced Charlize Theron on the American remake of French film Anthony Zimmer and now it seems like Johnny Depp is in talks to replace Australian actor Sam Worthington. The role originally had Tom Cruise slated to star.

Depp would play an American tourist drawn into a “web of intrigue by a female Interpol agent (Jolie) who is attempting to locate a criminal who was once her lover.”

The 2005 French film Anthony Zimmer was directed by Jérôme Salle. It starred the lovely Sophie Marceau and Yvan Attal.

Jolie remains on the project, however, along with Worthington, original director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck has left the project.  Children of Men director Alfonso Cuaron still in talks to replace him.

The Tourist is still on schedule to begin production in February.

Gibson's Girl 'Hopeful' Of Marriage

4 November 2009 8:01 AM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Mel Gibson's girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva is convinced they have a long future ahead of them - because they are "very, very happy together" following the birth of their first child.

The singer/songwriter welcomed the couple's first baby together, a daughter called Lucia, in Los Angeles last Friday.

The pair hit headlines earlier this year (Apri09) when Gibson's wife of 28 years, Robyn, filed for divorce amid rumours the actor had been dating 39-year-old Grigorieva, who subsequently announced her pregnancy.

Grigorieva claims Gibson had been separated from Robyn for two years before she embarked on her own romance with the star.

The singer admits she has been shocked by the negative press attention since their relationship came to light, telling Britain's Glamour magazine, "I was just sad, really, I mean where does all that hatred come from? And the anger? Maybe it's jealousy. All I can think is these people must be unhappy."

But the new mum insists the relationship is worth it - and is already plotting her future with the Hollywood star.

She adds, "Mel and I are very, very happy together. He's an amazing person. I adore him. We are both very lucky."

When asked whether she wants the couple to marry, she adds: "Yes. I hope so. Yes." »

Susannah Straughan, London Correspondent

3 November 2009 2:05 PM, PST | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

Susannah negotiated those difficult teenage years in front of a black and white TV, in the company of the inimitable Humphrey Bogart. There were many long, smoke-filled nights, punctuated by sardonic dialogue and the sound of some B-grade villain expiring in a hail of bullets. After studying law, Susannah embarked on a career in book and magazine publishing that has so far failed to make her rich or famous. But thanks to a nine-year stint at Radio Times magazine she feels certain that she has already met more than her fair share of film geeks and fan-boys. A team lunch last Christmas with film critic and football fan Barry Norman was a highlight. Movie heaven: Sunset Boulevard, The Lady Eve, The Big Sleep, La Confidential, The Graduate, Chinatown, All about My Mother. I could go on . . .

Grigorieva's Mum Blasts Press 'Lies'

3 November 2009 11:01 AM, PST | WENN | See recent WENN news »

The mother of Mel Gibson's girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva has hit out at the press for making her daughter's pregnancy a "hard one" because of all the "lies" written about her.

Gibson announced he was expecting his eighth child with the Russian singer earlier this year, just weeks after his then-wife Robyn filed for divorce.

The couple welcomed baby girl Lucia on Friday, and Grigorieva's mum Lyudmilla Chernukha is relieved her daughter made it through her pregnancy without any medical problems.

But Chernukha admits her daughter had a lot to deal with during her pregnancy - and she could have suffered complications because of all the stress caused by the bad press.

She tells People.com, "I'm delighted! I'm very pleased for her because during her pregnancy she worried a lot because of all the bad press written about her. Lots and lots of lies.

"Her pregnancy was a hard one even though she had no (medical) problems with it. And, of course, Mel supported her and so did all her friends."

Grigorieva, 39, also has a son, Alexander, with her former boyfriend, actor Timothy Dalton, while Gibson has six sons and a daughter with his ex-wife. »
