BRAD COOPER WISELY PULLS OUT OF MCG
02.25.10
(Good job, Brad Cooper, you don’t want a baby growing in that womb)
An actor pulling out of a project isn’t huge news in itself, but at a time when plenty of leading men should consider firing their agents *cough* Gerard Butler! *cough, cough*, I thought it’d be nice to focus on someone making a good decision for a change.
Bradley Cooper has pulled out of McG’s next film, a romantic comedy called This Means War. The July start date for the Fox romcom overlapped with the start of The Hangover 2. Reese Witherspoon is still attached. Fox has had this one for a long time; it was originally intended as a Martin Lawrence film. The movie revolves around two best friends, inseparable since childhood, that fall in love with the same woman (Witherspoon) and go to war against each other. THR says the “ensuing battle escalates to mammoth proportions, with New York City demolished in their wake.” [/Film]
Yeah, you had me at “a Fox rom-com from McG.” It sounds like Bride Wars meets Charlie’s Angels. Please, someone lead this one down to riverbank and put a bullet in its skull.

Martin Lawrence only cares if Reese is still on board. Buh-lee dat
‘Bride Wars’ meets ‘Charlie’s Angels’ is what was going through Kurt Cobain’s head the split second before that shotgun round did.
Why does anyone make this shit?
*wank gesture*
You sound as though you could use a throat lozenge for that cough.
The last time I pulled out the local insurgency declared victory.
The Hangover 2? Ffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
The original script called for a war between Lawrence and Cooper’s characters. While both were spies, they operated in different fields. While Cooper would try to win over Reese with his expertise in hand-to-hand combat and demolitions, Lawrence’s plan was to engineer a special pathogen to infect her with jungle fever.
To add to the bullshit cuteness, Reese’s character will be named Helen O’Troy.
wow;taking a shitty sequel over a rom-com, that is definitely the old out of the frying pan…
It’s about time someone compared a McG film to 9/11.
The sequel to my hangovers usually involve me saying “I’m never doing shots again” then drinking 15 bud lights instead.
ensuing battle escalates to mammoth proportions, with New York City demolished in their wake.
I take it Brad Cooper was set to play Godzilla to Martin Lawrence’s King Kong?
What? Too racist?
Mickey Rourke would of stayed in bareback. Then throw a 20 at McG and tell him to GTFO!
I’m still keeping my fingers crossed for a Brett Ratner produced rom-com starring Kathryn Heigl and Jennifer Aniston to be directed by McG written by Friedberg and Seltzer. Then I’ll have a reason to jump of the roof of my 10 story apartment building while shooting a sniper rifle at random traffic.
If they’re looking for a replacement for a Brad Cooper Godzilla, I suggest Matthew McConaughey. He has the right length arms for the role.
Thank you, Vince!
My day really needed some shirtless Bradley Cooper.
What a lousy deal. The ladies get a shirtless Bradley Cooper and we get a shirtless Chace Crawford
I pulled out once, but it was in the hot tub so I ended getting three chicks pregnant. |-(:*=( ~C==B {frownie teary Hitler in a propeller beanie getting forcibly bukkaked}
might as well cast Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny since they stole that line from every cartoon involving the both of them
