Is John Cusack Chasing A 'Preacher' Role?

6 November 2009 12:16 PM, PST | MTV Splash Page | See recent MTV Splash Page news »

With all the hub-bub surrounding the 20th anniversary of "Say Anything," it seems a little weird to think of actor John Cusack as a potential lead for "Preacher," Sam Mendes' in-development adaptation of Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's very adult-oriented comic book series. However, that could indeed be the one comic book movie he's chasing these days—or something very similar to it.

In an interview with io9, Cusack described a comic book movie floating around Hollywood that he's trying to get involved with—and the description sounds an awful lot like a certain story about an ex-Preacher, his trigger-happy girlfriend and a vampire who set out to teach God a lesson.

"It's a vampire and a killer, and they're on the road, and it's this really strange story," said Cusack.

Asked whether it "Preacher" he was thinking of, Cusack said, "I think it might have been 'Preacher, »

Murray Wants McG Dead

20 October 2009 6:31 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Bill Murray has less than fond memories of working with moviemaker McG on Charlie's Angels - he thinks the director deserves to die a horrible death.

The two men famously fell out on the set of the 2000 action film, starring Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore, with McG claiming the surly star had headbutted him during a disagreement.

Murray refutes the headbutt story, but admits he and the filmmaker disliked each other immensely.

In an interview with London newspaper The Times, Murray says, "He deserves to die! He should be pierced with a lance."

The Lost In Translation star refuses to confirm reports he also fell out with Angel Lucy Liu on set, allegedly telling her she couldn't act, but questions about his relationship with the actress prompted Murray to growl about his rules for co-stars.

He adds, "I will dismiss you completely if you are unprofessional and working with me... When our relationship is professional, and you’re not getting that done, forget it." »

Bill Murray says 'Charlie's Angels' director 'deserves to die'

20 October 2009 1:40 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

In an interview with the Times of London, Bill Murray excitedly discussed his new film, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and also revisited some less-than-happy memories of movies past. After raving about his Mr. Fox director, Wes Anderson, Murray was asked about some other directors he had worked with over the years. And when the conversation circled around to his Charlie's Angels director, McG, the funnyman went to a very dark place. When asked about McG's recent claim that Murray had head-butted him on the set of 2000's Charlie's Angels during a creative flair-up, Murray replied, "That's bulls--! That's complete crap! »

Murray says McG die

20 October 2009 10:00 AM, PDT | JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news »

To start, all I can say is, don't f*ck with Bill Murray. Unlike Wes Anderson, McG is not his favorite director to work with. McG (real name Joseph McGinty Nichol) recently said that Murray was headbutting him during a creative dispute on Charlie's Angels. You know what Murray had to say about that, .That.s bullshit! That.s complete crap! I don.t know why he made that story up. He has a very active imagination.. There's really no reason to be fond of McG. All he really ends up doing is... »

Bill Murray Thinks McG Deserves To Die

19 October 2009 10:05 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

McG was making enough enemies as it was this summer, having turned in a mediocre Terminator: Salvation after promising everyone he wouldn't ruin the franchise. He really didn't need to be messing with Bill Murray too, but apparently that's exactly what he was doing in a story I somehow missed. Did you hear that McG said that Bill Murray headbutted him on the set of Charlie's Angels? And Murray, unsurprisingly, has a rebuttal. "That.s bullshit! That.s complete crap!" he said in an interview with The Times of London. .I don.t know why he made that story up. He has a very active imagination.. He even saved his choicest words for a moment when he thought he'd regained composure. "No! He deserves to die,. he says, coldly staring, without breaking deadpan. .He should be pierced with a lance, not headbutted.. Yikes. I guess now we know just how »

Bill Murray Wants His "Charlie's Angels" Director To "Die"

18 October 2009 7:03 AM, PDT | icelebz.com | See recent iCelebz news »

Bill Murray wants his "Charlie's Angels" director to "die."

The "Fantastic Mr. Fox" actor laughed off recent claims by filmmaker McG - real name Joseph McGinty Nichol - that he headbutted him during a dispute on set, but admits there is genuine tension between them.

Speaking about the allegations, Bill told Britain's The Times newspaper: "It's bulls**t. That's complete c**p. I don't know why he made that story up. He has a very active imagination."

"He deserves to die. He should be pierced with a lance, not headbutted."

Bill divorced Jennifer Butler - the mother of his four children - last year and doesn't think he will remarry.

Bill Murray Expresses a Death Wish for McG

17 October 2009 2:02 PM, PDT | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

There is a great feature on the enigmatic Bill Murrary in the Friday edition of The Times. It discusses his off-the-grid approach to his career (no agents or publicists, etc.) and addresses some of the on-set problems he has had with cast and crew members in the past.

This summer, McG, defending the Christian Bale outburst on Terminator Salvation, said that kind of stuff always happens on his movie sets, and that Murray headbutted him during the production of Charlie's Angels. While it's true that Murray and Lucy Liu got into it, but Murray says the headbutt never happened, although he does have a good punishment for McG in the future.

"It's bullshit. That's complete crap. I don't know why he made that story up. He has a very active imagination," he told the paper, adding without a hint of sarcasm, "He deserves to die. He should be pierced with a lance, »

Contest: Tweet to Win 'Ally McBeal': The Complete Series

13 October 2009 8:28 AM, PDT | buddytv.com | See recent BuddyTV news »

I think everyone who is a fan of 90s television knows exactly what show I'm talking about when I say 'dancing baby'. When Ally McBeal introduced the dancing baby it was both creepy and intriguing. To this day I can still see Calista Flockhart in her pajamas dancing along side it. Well, the dancing baby, and the entire cast of Ally McBeal, are back with the release of The Complete Series on DVD. And guess what, BuddyTV is giving away Ally McBeal: The Complete Series to one lucky reader. That's not all either. We also have an additional 5 copies of Season One to give away.

For the first time ever, you can watch the Emmy and Golden Globe winning show that launched Brothers & Sisters star, Calista Flockhart's, career. Not to mention the series starred Arrested Development's Portia de Rossi, Charlie's Angels Lucy Liu and Iron Man's »

Death Becomes Her: The Best (and Easiest) Movie-Inspired Halloween Costumes.

11 October 2009 10:01 AM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

Leave the Scream Mask at home, this Halloween Sound on Sight has you covered. Before asking "Why so serious?" with a grin only Heath Ledger can really pull off and unlike the thousands of others who will try this Halloween (like last, and like the ones to come) why not browse through other films for a more unique and obscure, generic or fun reference. Also, unless it's an ironic Eddie Murphy-vampire in Brooklyn costume, I beg you to refrain from the pointy teeth whether or not it's Twilight-intentional. The following are bound to win you some sort of prize. Most Creative Any major character from Robert Vadim's 1968 classic, Barbarella. You could be Pygar, the blind angel who has lost his will to fly; a costume that only requires a pair of wings, a cloth and a lost, apathetic facial expression.

Josh Wolk's Pop Culture Club talks 'Zombieland': Did it have enough brains?

8 October 2009 7:30 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

Welcome back to the Pop Culture Club, and before we begin, I should alert any newcomers that as this "Club" has all ostensibly seen Zombieland, there will be spoilers galore that will ruin your enjoyment of the movie should you choose to see it later. (That, by the way, was the longest possible way to say "spoiler alert.") I should start by saying that I work with many diehard zombiephiles. The kind who know every George A. Romero movie, and, after reading this post's headline, are now itching to give an irritated lecture about how zombies don't actually eat brains… »

Gregg Araki Gets Sexy Again

6 October 2009 1:15 PM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

Bring on the Araki! After getting busy with candy-coated 3-ways in Splendor, Gregg Araki concocted a little yin and yang. First came the gritty drama of Mysterious Skin, which revealed a range we didn't know existed. Then came the exact opposite -- the ridiculous Anna Faris-starring stoner comedy Smiley Face. But now the cult director is heading back to the green sprouts of sexual exploration.

The Hollywood Reporter posts that Araki is shooting his latest feature, Kaboom, and he's tapped Roxane Mesquida (Fat Girl), Thomas Dekker (Sarah Connor Chronicles), Kelly Lynch (Charlie's Angels), and Rooney Mara (Youth in Revolt) to star. Not much is being revealed at this time, but here's what I could find online. As THR notes, Kaboom will focus on "the sexual awakening of a group of college students." Araki started the feature last month, Helen STELLaR is performing in a scene, and Ann Magnuson (Panic Room »

Sam Rockwell Talks Iron Man 2

1 October 2009 2:00 AM, PDT | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »

Sam Rockwell seems like the only cast member not interviewed at the Entertainment Tonight set visit, but IGN managed to catch up with Rockwell and find out more details about Justin Hammer, the character Rockwell plays in the movie.

He's a rival of Tony's — they are competitors in the weapons industry. I team up with Mickey Rourke and we decide we want to take him down and take down the Stark legacy. He's sort of like a cousin of the Charlie's Angels character I played. The smarmy cousin. But it's Mickey — he does the fighting and the kicking ass in the film. Rockwell glowed about the Iron Man 2 cast.

It was great ... it was a good time, a lot of fun. It's like the all-stars; like the globe-trotters or something. You know, Don Cheadle, Mickey Rourke, Gwyneth [Paltrow], Scarlett [Johansson], and Robert Downey Jr. And Sam Jackson's there too. It »

Barrymore: 'I'm Not Sober'

24 September 2009 3:01 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Drew Barrymore has confessed she's not completely sober after a youth spent battling drug and alcohol issues and a stint in rehab.

The actress claims to have found "balance" in her life, which means she doesn't have to cut out all the things she used to be addicted to.

In a new Parade magazine interview, the Charlie's Angels actress says, "I'm not (sober) and I don't claim to be - quite the opposite. I've tried to find the balance. I hope it's balanced."

Barrymore has always been open about her addictive past - she had her first sip of alcohol when she was nine, began smoking marijuana at the age of 10, and first took cocaine at 12.

According to reports, her mother staged an intervention when Barrymore was a teenager and checked her into the Asap Family Treatment Center rehab hospital.

The actress quit the facility after 12 days. »

Ceaseless deaths of the famous mark summer `09

18 September 2009 5:57 PM, PDT | Filmicafe | See recent Filmicafe news »

We had been told to expect the deaths of the famous to come in threes, not in the dozens.But all through the summer of 2009 came a ceaseless and somber drumbeat, as idols of all walks of life passed away. From Walter Cronkite to Sen. Ted Kennedy, the nonstop loss of luminaries continued almost as if a seasonal occurrence . as much a part of summer as hot dogs and humidity.If a filmmaker were trying to capture the summer of 2009, Michael Jackson news would be playing in the background. Many thought coverage of Jackson's death was too much; a Pew Research Center poll released in July found that 64 percent of those surveyed thought the media blitz was overdone (though none could top MTV Japan, which designated an entire week of mourning for Jackson).But news outlets went heavy on coverage for the many others who passed. Collectively, it made the constant commemorating hard to escape, »

Yep, the Charlie's Angels actress and Juno star 'lez' it up in the October edition of Marie Claire magazine in the Us. The pair are larking around flowers and rollerskates for the shoot which is to celebrates Drew's directorial debut Whip It, which stars Page.

"Curious. Kind. And the word ethical is coming to me..." Said Drew of Ellen.

"Luminous. Compassionate. Intelligent." Said Ellen of Drew. The two were apparently summing each other up using just three words. See?

The two met at the infamous Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles. Page added:

"It was a surreal moment for me... You could just feel her warmth and kindness immediately, and the way she carried herself was just so grounded. "So then it was like: 'Oh, this is going to be great'. And then it went into: 'Oh my God, I'm really crazy about this person.' "It just grew and grew »
