Emma Roberts Debuts Boyfriend Darren Kuppin

11 November 2009 10:57 PM, PST | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »

Emma Roberts is off the market. According to Just Jared Jr., the "Hotel for Dogs" actress is currently dating Darren Kuppin. On Tuesday night, November 10, the alleged lovebirds were photographed leaving Madeo restaurant in Los Angeles together.

Making their way out of the venue, the twosome was seen sharing laughs. They were also seen enjoyably talking to each other. While waiting for a car, the 18-year-old beauty spent some time to sign autographs for some of her fans. Unfortunately, she refused to open up about the nature of her relationship with Darren.

Back in April, Emma was first spotted hanging out with Darren. Leaving Koi restaurant in West Hollywood, they were snapped walking hand-in-hand. Though so, Emma and Darren at that time also declined to say whether or not they were an item.

Aside from her personal life, Emma Roberts has been busy filming "What's Wrong With Virginia". In the movie, »

Sharon Gless loves being Free

28 October 2009 8:00 AM, PDT | AfterEllen.com | See recent AfterEllen.com news »

I love the tagline for Hannah Free: “A film about a lifelong love affair between an independent spirit and the woman she calls home.”

How perfect is that? I don’t even have to see the movie to get teary-eyed.

In the film, Hannah (Sharon Gless) and Rachel (Maureen Gallagher) are two women who face the conflict between small-town values and their relationship.

According to the movie’s website:

Hannah and Rachel grew up as little girls in the same small Midwest town, where traditional gender expectations eventually challenge their deep love for one another. Hannah becomes an adventurous, unapologetic lesbian and Rachel a strong but quiet homemaker. Weaving back and forth between past and present, the film reveals how the women maintained their love affair despite a marriage, a world war, infidelities, and family denial.

Here’s the trailer. (If you get a request for your age at »

17 September 2009 1:21 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

This week:

Lionsgate goes in for the Knockout; Michael Keaton, Eva Mendes and Damon Wayans Jr are The Other Guys; Michael Sheen talks Tron and Jennifer Connelly, Ed Harris, Emma Roberts and Amy Madigan find out What’s Wrong With Virginia.

1. When Steven Soderbergh’s Brad Pitt starring Moneyball fell apart earlier this year it left a hole in the director’s schedule.

The Oscar winning director obviously likes to keep busy so he signed on to helm the female spy thriller Knockout.

 

The independent production didn’t have a distributor attached, but now Lionsgate have picked up the film.

Knockout, which will star martial artist Gina Carano in her acting debut, starts shooting in Januray.

Soderbergh’s next release is the Matt Damon starrer The Informant` which opens this weekend.

Ed Harris Heads To Virginia

15 September 2009 12:28 AM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Ed Harris, Emma Roberts and Amy Madigan have all signed on the dotted line for What's Wrong With Virginia?, a Midwest-set drama, written and directed by Dustin Lance Black.Like Black's Oscar-winning Milk screenplay, What's Wrong With Virginia? has a strong political flavour. Harris plays a politically-minded sheriff whose ambitions towards the state senate are hampered when his daughter (Roberts) begins dating the son of Virginia, a psychologically-disturbed woman he has been having an affair with for two decades.What exactly is wrong with Virginia, we're not sure, and we're tiptoeing quietly around all this tangledness will impact the sheriff's political aspirations, but we do know that Jennifer Connolly will play her, while Madigan is the sheriff's cuckolded wife.Harris steps in for Liam Neeson, who was originally attached to the project, leaving Neeson free to concentrate on his quadruple threat quartet of Zeus (Clash Of The Titans), Hannibal Smith »

Ed Harris Replacing Liam Neeson in What’S Wrong With Virginia; Emma Roberts and Amy Madigan to Co-Star with Jennifer Connelly

14 September 2009 11:41 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

I can’t think of a bad instance of Ed Harris stepping into replace an actor in an upcoming movie.  So while Liam Neeson-who I think is fantastic-leaving Dustin Lance Black’s “What’s Wrong With Virginia” is disappointing, I have no problem with Ed Harris playing his role.  If Robert Downey Jr., George Clooney, or Dame Judi Dench want to step down from a role, I got just the guy: Ed Harris.

Hit the jump to find out about other actors who are not Ed Harris joining “Virginia” and wonder what these actors found appealing about the story.

Jennifer Connolly is already on board the project and she’ll be joined not only by Harris but by Emma Roberts and Amy Madigan as well.  So you’ve got a solid cast and I’m sure the story was partially what drew their attention since Black received such acclaim for his “Milk” script. »

Question: Hey, do you have any Grey's Anatomy news that doesn't involve George or Izzie? -Salma Ausiello: Yes -- the entire cast will be following T.R. Knight out the door. At least series creator Shonda Rhimes is braced for them to. Eventually. She got to thinking about it both because of Knight's exit and Ellen Pompeo's impending maternity leave. “It's going to be tricky,” Rhimes acknowledges. “Ellen is incredibly optimistic and somehow thinks she'll be back and ready to rock 'n' roll. I have a child, so I know that that's not true. we have a lovely story that will take us into her maternity leave. And we have plans for some really interesting stand-alone episodes for [while she's gone].

[DVD Review] Saving Grace: Season Two

19 June 2009 1:01 AM, PDT | JustPressPlay.net | See recent JustPressPlay news »

Until The Closer, TNT was little more than a dumping ground for shows which had long ago reached syndication and needed a secondary arena to rake in the cash. The Closer changed everything for TNT; the cable staple realized there might be something to having a few original series under their belt. A few years later they debuted Saving Grace and lo and behold the series became a magnet for awards nominations. Saving Grace takes a precarious balance between agonizing drama the lighthearted levity of family oriented programs like 7th Heaven.

Grace Hanadarko (Holly Hunter) drinks heavily, has promiscuous sex and now finds herself the perpetrator of a hit and run accident. With the man lying at the foot of her bumper, Grace pleads with God to give her a second chance at life and receives a prompt visit from Earl (Leon Rippy), an angel. Earl brings tidings of her »
