GUESS WHO’S COMEEN TO DEENER, ÉSE

Guess what, everyone!  Carlos Mencia is finally getting that starring movie role he so richly deserves!

Forest Whitaker, America Ferrera and Carlos Mencia have signed on to star in an untitled family wedding project for Fox Searchlight. Rick Famuyiwa (“Brown Sugar”) is directing the pic from a screenplay he penned. Described as a clash-of-cultures comedy [Shocking -Ed.], story centers on two overbearing fathers (Whitaker, Mencia) who must put aside their differences to plan the wedding of their son and daughter (Ferrera) in less than two weeks.

Mencia’s last role was a bit part in Heartbreak Kid in which he proved he can’t even do a convincing Mexican accent, so I’m sure he’ll do fine opposite an Oscar winner.  I mean, look at this picture. I didn’t even have to Photoshop that.

FRIDAY FREE 4 ALL: AMERICA FERRARA IS COOL

08.15.08 Written by Vince Mancini

Today’s Friday Free for All clip comes from The Soup.  It features Blake Lively and America Ferrara doing press for the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, with special attention to the daggers coming out of Ferrara’s eyes when Lively gets asked about Gossip Girl.  Mmm, that’s some good hate.  Congratulations, America Ferrara, you are now an honorary FilmDrunkard.  To become a full member, all you have to do is wrestle the blind kid.  Be careful, she bites.
