      Katie Holmes to Take Double Duty in Film Adaptation of Jill Wine-Banks' 'The Watergate Girl'

      by

      WENN/Instar

      Having snapped up the film rights to the Watergate prosecutor’s autobiography, the former ‘Dawson’s Creek’ star claims she was drawn to the story because of its relevance.

      Mar 23, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Katie Holmes has snapped up the film rights to Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks’ autobiography as her next project. The actress will star in and produce the adaptation of “The Watergate Girl: My Fight For Truth and Justice Against A Criminal President”, which was released just over a year ago in February 2020.

      Wine-Banks became a victim of intruders, who burgled her home, tapped her phones, and rifled through her trash after she was named one of three assistant Watergate special prosecutors – and the only woman – in the obstruction of justice trial against President Nixon’s top aides. She also had to deal with daily sexism and other issues, while trying to save her marriage.

      “I’m excited to be working with Katie Holmes and am both honored and humbled to have my experience as the only woman on the Watergate trial team shared on the big screen,” Wine-Banks tells Deadline. “Though it was almost 50 years ago, the story of our investigation and trial remain compelling and relevant to current events and the sexism reflected in my story reverberates today. I hope this film opens up more dialogue around the challenges still facing professional women.”

      The actress adds, “I was drawn to this story because it is as relevant today as it was then. Women are constantly trying to break through the glass ceiling in the male workplace and this woman singlehandedly helped reshape the Watergate trial. I am constantly inspired by these strong female protagonists, and it is a world I will always want to explore.”

      Michael Keaton Blames COVID-19 for Uncertainty of His Return as Batman in 'The Flash'

      by

      WENN/Sheri Determan

      Insisting that he was not ‘being cute or coy,’ the actor who has played the Caped Crusader in two Tim Burton films claims he was too occupied with the pandemic that he has yet to take a look at the script.

      Mar 23, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Michael Keaton is refusing to confirm he’ll be putting the Batman suit on again for “The Flash”, because he’s too concerned about COVID-19 to take a look at the script.

      It has been reported that both he and Ben Affleck will portray Bruce Wayne and his alter ego in the upcoming DC Comics blockbuster, but Keaton, who played the Caped Crusader in two Tim Burton films in 1989 and 1992, insists he has yet to officially sign on.

      “I am needing a minute to think about it because I’m so fortunate and blessed,” he tells Deadline in a new interview. “I got so much going on now. I’m really into work right now… To tell you the truth, somewhere on my iPad is an iteration of the whole Flash thing that I haven’t had time yet [to check]…”

        See also…

      “I called them and said, ‘I have to be honest with you, I can’t look at anything right now. I’m so deep into this thing I’m doing. Also, I’m prepping a thing I’m producing and getting ready to do down the road in the fall that I’ll be in, and I feel responsible to that’.”

      “I’m not being cute or coy, but if I talked about it, I’ll be just bulls**tting you. I don’t really know. I have to look at the last draft. To be honest with you, you know what worries me more than anything about all this stuff…? It’s COVID.”

      “I’m more concerned. I keep my eye more on the COVID situation in the U.K. than anything. That will determine everything… I’m staying away from everybody, because the COVID thing has got me really concerned. So, that’s my first thing about all projects. I look at it and go, ‘Is this thing going to kill me, literally?’ And you know, if it doesn’t, then we talk.”

      Keaton adds, “I’m going to see what happens here… You want to say, like Joe Pesci from ‘My Cousin Vinny’…, ‘It’s a thing, but it’s not a thing’.”

      Joe Manganiello Stoked About Securing Rights for The Smiths Songs for New Film

      by

      WENN/Instar

      During an interview with Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest, the ‘Magic Mike XXL’ actor opens up about his role in director Stephen Kijak’s ‘Shoplifters of the World’.

      Mar 23, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Joe Manganiello is proud of snagging more than 20 The Smiths songs for his new film.

      The “True Blood” hunk took on double duty as star and co-producer – alongside brother Nick – of new film “Shoplifters of the World”, in which he plays real-life DJ Full Metal Mickey, who is taken hostage at a radio station and forced to play the British band’s music non-stop.

      “We have 20 Smiths songs, most of which have never been used in film or TV – which is a coup,” Joe raves on “Live with Kelly and Ryan”.

      And he’s stoked that he and his brother managed to secure the rights for the songs, including the title track, for director Stephen Kijak’s movie, based on a 1990s Details magazine article.

        See also…

      “Stephen had some inroads to [former The Smiths frontman] Morrissey’s camp, so he went that way and then we had to go and pitch [guitarist] Johnny Marr’s camp and send them the script. Johnny and Morrissey had to agree and they did, and then we got the music.”

      Recalling the story behind the film, Manganiello adds, “They [Details] interviewed Morrissey and actually asked him about this event…, where a young man was so distraught at the break up of The Smiths in 1987 that he held a Denver [Colorado] hair metal [radio] station hostage and forced the DJ to play nothing but The Smiths all day long to impress this girl he was in love with.”

      And Joe didn’t need much persuading to be part of the project. “I loved The Smiths, loved the role, and brought my brother in as my proud partner and we… put the movie together,” he shares.

      AceShowbiz –
      Vin Diesel’s ten-year-old son Vincent Sinclair is joining the “Fast and Furious” family.

      According to editors, Vincent will be joining the cast of “Fast and Furious 9”, where he’ll play a younger version of character Dominic Toretto, who is played by his father.

      Vincent, whose mother is Vin’s partner Paloma Jimenez, has already reportedly filmed his scenes in late 2019 when he was 9 and was paid $1,005 (£726) a day.

      A younger Dominic was previously seen in “Furious 7”, with the character played in the 2015 film by actor Alex McGee.

      The youngster will make his debut in the new film, which will be released on 25 June (21), after multiple delays because of the Covid-19 health crisis.

      Last Thursday, Vin took to Instagram to confirm “F9” new release date, sharing a short clip of a car speeding away from an explosion with the new date written over it.

      “Finally!!! Blessed and grateful,” the 53-year-old captioned the post.

      Meanwhile, his co-star Ludacris, who plays Tej Parker, added in the comments, “We Just Gettin Started (sic).”

      The upcoming ninth instalment is directed by Justin Lin. It will see Vin Diesel return with the likes of Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang, Helen Mirren, and Charlize Theron. Meanwhile, John Cena is among the new additions.

      Rumor has it, the action movie series is bidding farewell with the eleventh installment. Justin Lin is reportedly in talks to return as director for the 10th and 11th movies that will bring a close to the franchise.

      Riz Ahmed Comes Close to Quitting Acting Years Before Securing Oscar Nomination

      WENN/Lia Toby

      Having become the first Muslim to land the Lead Actor nod, the ‘Sound of Metal’ star recalls the time he was so broke he couldn’t afford a plane ticket to an audition for ‘Nightcrawler’ in Los Angeles.

      Mar 22, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Oscar nominee Riz Ahmed was so broke before shooting his breakthrough role in 2014 film “Nightcrawler”, he almost quit the project. The “Sound of Metal” star couldn’t afford a plane ticket to an audition in Los Angeles and started seriously reconsidering his acting dreams.

      “They [casting directors] asked me to fly to L.A. and I was like, ‘I can’t fly to L.A. I’m broke,’ ” he tells The Mirror. “But I had to fly to L.A. and just bet on myself. I spent that whole flight just running lines. I remember landing and seeing Jake Gyllenhaal in the room and going, ‘Whoa!’ ”

      “It came when I thought I’d reached the end of the road. I wasn’t really making any money, being offered that next tier of roles,” he adds. “I just felt like earning a couple of grand for a movie? I can’t live like this. I’m not going to be able to move forward or start a family.”

        See also…

      His gamble paid off – last week, Riz became the first Muslim nominated for a Lead Actor Oscar for his role in the “Sound of Metal” as Ruben Stone, a drummer losing his hearing.

      After making Oscars history on Monday, March 15, Ahmed wrote in an Instagram post, “Wow! I’m honored to be nominated by my fellow actors alongside such inspiring performances, and am grateful to the Academy for their support and encouragement.”

      Speaking about the role itself, Ahmed admits to The Mirror, “I spent that period playing the drums every day and learning American sign Language every day. It was immersive. It was challenging. It was daunting. But it was a tremendous privilege, you know? I feel like it opened me up in new ways.”

      Report: Liam Hemsworth Is Frontrunner to Be DCEU's Green Arrow

      by

      Instagram

      The Australian hunk, best known for his portrayal of Gale Hawthorne in ‘The Hunger Games’ film series, is reportedly among the shortlist of actors being considered for the part of Oliver Queen and his alter ego.

      Mar 22, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Liam Hemsworth could be the new superhero in Star City. The Australian actor, who is best known for his portrayal of Gale Hawthorne in “The Hunger Games” film franchise, is reportedly a frontrunner to be DCEU’s new Green Arrow.

      According to We Got This Covered, Hemsworth’s future incarnation of the superhero will be featured in an upcoming feature film, though it’s unclear if the said character will only make a cameo or have his own standalone film. Warner Bros. has not greenlit any project that has been confirmed to involve Green Arrow, though the speculation has been increasing with the success of The CW’s series “Arrow”.

      Prior to Hemsworth, Charlie Hunnam has been fan’s favorite choice to portray Green Arrow for its big-screen iteration. Taron Egerton, who has picked up a bow as Robin Hood in a disastrous 2018 film, has also been rumored among the shortlist for DCEU’s Green Arrow.

        See also…

      Green Arrow, the vigilante alter-ego of wealthy businessman Oliver Queen, was last portrayed on the small screen by Stephen Amell. The actor starred as the titular character on The CW’s “Arrow” since the first season, which premiered in 2012, until its end with the eighth and final season in 2020. Through a shared universe known as the “Arrowverse”, Amell’s version of Green Arrow has also appeared on other series including “The Flash” and “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow”.

      Prior to the “Arrow” TV series, Green Arrow was portrayed by Justin Hartley on “Smallville”. At the time, there had been talks about his character getting his own spin-off series with Stephen S. DeKnight at the helm, but the project never saw the light of day.

      As for Hemsworth, he last starred as the lead in neo-noir crime thriller “Arkansas”, which was released on Premium VOD, DVD and Blu-ray on May 5, 2020, by Lionsgate, rather than being released theatrically due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He also shared screen with Miley Cyrus, whom he later wed in December 2018 before they split in August 2019, in 2010’s romantic movie “The Last Song”, and took a lead role in 2016’s “Independence Day: Resurgence”.

      'Mrs. Doubtfire' Director Suggests Documentary for Release of R-Rated Scenes

      by

      WENN

      Addressing recent buzz over the beloved family film, director Chris Columbus admits Robin Williams ‘would sometimes go into territory that wouldn’t be appropriate for a PG-13 movie.’

      Mar 22, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      “Mrs. Doubtfire” director Chris Columbus has confirmed the existence of an R-rated version of his beloved family film, starring Robin Williams as a cross-dressing nanny.

      Fans begged movie bosses to release the unfriendly version of the family film after news of the alternative hit the Internet last week, prompting Columbus to address the Twitter explosion.

      He revealed he shot Williams improvising scenes during the production, but insists they are unlikely to see the light of day.

      “The reality is that there was a deal between Robin and myself, which was, he’ll do one or two, three scripted takes, and then he would say, ‘Then let me play.’ ” Chris tells EW.com. “And we would basically go on anywhere between 15 to 22 takes.”

        See also…

      “He would sometimes go into territory that wouldn’t be appropriate for a PG-13 movie, but certainly appropriate and hilariously funny for an R-rated film… I do remember it was outrageously funny material,” Columbus said.

      The filmmaker told the outlet he would only consider releasing the R-rated scenes for a documentary about the making of “Mrs. Doubtfire”. “I would be open to maybe doing a documentary about the making of the film, and enabling people to see certain scenes re-edited in an R-rated version,” he said. “The problem is, I don’t recall most of it. I only know what’s in the movie at this point because it’s been a long time. But I do remember it was outrageously funny material.”

      He added, “I think that that would be the best approach. I’m very proud of the film… I’m in a good place with ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’, so there’s really no reason to do the definitive cut. The definitive cut of ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’ is out in the world right now.”

      Columbus, however, denied that there’s an NC-17 version of the comedy. “I only [previously] used the phrase NC-17 as a joke,” he stressed. “There could be no NC-17 version of the movie.”
