SURPRISE SURPRISE, OLD VICTORIA IS PISSED

07.30.09 Written by Vince Mancini

When it was announced yesterday that sexy firecrotch Rachelle Lefevre was being replaced by more-famous firecrotch Bryce Dallas Howard as Victoria in Eclipse, the next Twilight movie, I was quick call BS on the studio’s official reason of “scheduling conflict”.  Given a choice, an up-and-comer like Lefevre would probably pick a big franchise like Twilight over an indie, right?  Which would lead one to believe she wasn’t given a choice, as she seems to confirm in her recently-released statement:

“I was stunned by Summit’s decision to recast the role. I was fully committed to the ‘Twilight’ saga. I turned down several other film opportunities and, in accordance with my contractual rights, accepted only roles that would involve very short shooting schedules. My commitment to ‘Barney’s Version’ is only ten days. Summit picked up my option for ‘Eclipse.’ Although the production schedule for ‘Eclipse’ is over three months long, Summit said they had a conflict during those ten days and would not accommodate me. Given the length of filming for ‘Eclipse,’ never did I fathom I would lose the role over a 10 day overlap. I was happy with my contract with Summit and was fully prepared to continue to honor it. Summit chose simply to recast the part. [via MTV Movies Blog]

Reached for comment, Terrence Howard offered, “Say, man, I know all about gettin’ replaced in a part, ya dig?  But when the world’s got you down and the glaciers cry, I try to remember that life is a go-kart race, not a song you sing with your grandma, man.  Here, check out this poem I wrote about how it feels to lose an acting job.  It doesn’t have words, only bongo drums. Here it go…”

MOVIE MAGIC NO MATCH FOR SWINE FLU

07.06.09 Written by Vince Mancini

Rupert Grint, the guy who plays Ron Weasley in Harry Potter, is reportedly recovering from a “mild case” of Swine Flu, the pandemic that’s still going to ravage the Earth like killer bees did when we were kids, if you believe what you hear on the local news.

Christian Hodell of Hamilton Hodell management said Saturday that Grint took a few days away from the set of the latest film, but has now been able to return to work.

Man, first you name him “Rupert Grint*,” then he comes out a hideous ginger, and now he’s got swine flu?  Poor kid can’t catch a break. You know, other than being a famous movie star and getting to make out with Emma Watson.  God I hate my life.

*What the hell do you call a guy named Rupert, anyway?  Ru?  Rupe? Pert? I’m guessing he gets a lot of “hey, dipshit,” and slaps upside the head.

ARRESTED DEV. CONFIRMED BY… RON HOWARD

11.20.08 Written by Vince Mancini

So I’m bangin this frozen turkey I’d microwaved, right….

At a recent press junket to promote Frost/Nixon, a reporter from Maxim (video after the jump) asked Ron Howard about the possibility of an Arrested Development movie. Howard, who was a producer and the narrator on the show, said “I think it’s very promising, we’re just lacking that one thing that we really need, which is a script.”  But he adds that the director is working on it, the cast is ready to go, and the studio is interested.

Elsewhere, Clint Howard was asked about the possibility another slice of pie and bit the waitress’ nose off. She’s currently undergoing an intense regimen of antibiotics and just might pull through.
