He’s joining Amy Heckerling’s comedy

Amy Heckerling continues to pick up actors to appear in her new fanged fiend comedy, Vamps. Malcolm McDowell, Marilu Henner and Zak Orth have all signed on.

The plot, for those just joining us, follows two beautiful young female vampires (Alicia Silverstone and She’s Out Of My League’s Krysten Ritter), who are content to enjoy the nightlife of New York and use the single bachelors of the city as their suck toys.

But then trouble rears its head as they fall in love (not with each other, as we understand it. There’s no need to call James Corden), and must decide whether to follow their hearts (is that possible when they don’t technically beat?) and risk the wrath of their senior vamp, played by Sigourney Weaver. The likes of Richard Lewis, Wallace Shawn, Justin Kirk and Kristen Johnston are also on board.

Henner has agreed to play a deathly ill woman who reclaims her former hotness, while Orth will be Renfield, a nerdy follower of Ritter’s character who keeps claiming he’s tougher than he is. And McDowell sounds like he’ll have the most fun, playing Vlad the Impaler, who struts around the city as Vlad Tepish, velvet jogging suit aficionado and knitting fanatic. The comedy stock value of the film just jumped several points…

McQuarrie adapting ITV miniseries

Despite the fact that both State of Play and Edge of Darkness were largely ignored at the box office, the tide of filmmakers looking at UK miniseries to makeover into movies has not been stemmed. Now Producer Graham King has hired Christopher McQuarrie to write a script based on ITV series Unforgiven for Angelina Jolie.

McQuarrie will be adapting the series, which saw a woman trying to edge her way back into society after 15 years in prison for murdering two police officers. She’s looking for a quiet life with her troubled sister, but runs into problems with the sons of one of the coppers.

As Deadline reports, even with the solid talent at the keyboard, Jolie’s involvement is nowhere near sure yet, since she doesn’t tend to accept any projects without a finished screenplay. But King’s GK Films is apparently trying to develop a working relationship with her, having partnered with the actress on The Tourist. And the fact that the company now has regular collaborations with the likes of Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio should help her make her mind up. That, and the fact that McQuarrie did some of the script work on The Tourist…

And they’re from Kung Fu Panda

Cyrus Voris and Ethan Reiff, the guys behind the script for Kung Fu Panda, the original version of Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood (back when it was still called Nottingham) and TV’s Sleeper Cell, are set to write The Karate Kid sequel. So basically it’ll be just like Kung-Fu Panda, only with fewer animals and fewer jokes. OK, so the only way in which it’s likely to resemble that animation is in using the same martial art, but it’s very early in the morning.

There’s no word yet on where the sequel will be set, or whether it will change location as did the original Karate Kid 2 (wherein Daniel-San travelled to Okinawa to visit Mr Miyagi’s ancestral home), but we do know that the result is tentatively pencilled in for 2013.

This most recent Karate Kid cost about $40m to make and made nearly $300m, so one thing’s for sure: don’t expect to stop waxing on and waxing off anytime soon.

And a planned ANZAC project

Oh Peter Jackson, how you tease. The New Zealand director has promised that he will have certainty about whether The Hobbit is going ahead “sometime soon” in an interview with New Zealand’s Dominion Post. Yes, he’s still optimistic that the legal knots can be combed out, saying that Warners was “making progress untangling the MGM situation”, which can only be a good thing.

But that’s not all he’s planning: it sounds like his long hinted-at ANZAC project may be the next project on his plate. A huge fan of Gallipoli, Peter Weir’s 1980s take on the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who fought in the Mediterranean in World War I, Jackson hopes to get his own take on the story of the disastrous Dardenelles campaign off the ground.

Jackson already directed a World War I short film in 2007 called Crossing The Line, presumably just to get a feel for trench warfare and the rest, but it appears that he’s hoping to get an ANZAC movie going in time for the centenary of the campaign in 2015. That means he’ll have to try to fit that in around a second planned Tintin movie, following the first in 2011, and The Hobbit if that comes together quickly. Annoyingly, it looks like Temeraire’s still on the back burner, which is bad news for fans of Napoleon and dragons.

As more and more new players join the market, we will see much better and more state-of-the-art frames. We see more of these frames everyday and the primary beneficiaries are the sport, church and music websites. You can see that these three categories of the ecommerce realm are growing in number as time goes by. Look at church websites nowadays, and you will see several great additions like online confession booths and better search engines, aside from the cathedral-like atmosphere seen in the newer three-dimensional frames. If you want to create a church website, the right time to do it is now. Open one of the links provided in this article, download your favorite frame, and start creating an online extension for your church, congregation, or organization.

Look at how the major brands entered markets in China and Japan. If you want to create a music website, you better do it now while the items are still for free and readily downloadable.

Jealous much? Lindsay Lohan is seen here draped in glitz and glam while reportedly sitting front row at Roberto Cavalli’s fashion show in Milan Fashion Week. But this isn’t even the best picture of this event, as after the show she was then seen drapped all over Cavalli himself. Must be nice. And when you have that kind of lifestyle, I guess it really doesn’t matter WHO you are dating, when you clearly have some strings in the world of fabulosity. But this time the rumors that she has gone back to boys may actually be true. Tho Lindsay Lohan says she’s not dating Gareth Geno, a British DJ, all signs seem to be saying otherwise. But then, she also says he’s so cute she’s going to have to move to London. So maybe she’s lying, or maybe the media is lying, or maybe her long-lost twin from The Parent Trap has returned to spread some rumors. The Mirror saw her hanging out with Gareth at Sketch nightclub in London on Wednesday. She was doing a guest DJ stint, and he was helping her. But the club was more interested in what they were seeing than what they were hearing. Lindsay and Gareth were holding hands and he was feeding her chips, the Mirror reports. “Dance!” she yelled to the crowd at one point. “I feel like I’m in a f–king zoo.” Apparently all that work (that work being getting looked at) was too much to bear. She made an early exit, but not before dropping a cute “see you later, baby” on her new DJ arm candy. He joined her later at the snooty club Bungalow 8, where the Mirror overheard her saying, “I have to move to London. He’s so cute.” When grilled by Gossip Cop on the man cute enough for her to quit her life in L.A., she denied everything. “Nooo I am not [dating him],” she said. “He’s a friend, geez.” Lindsay might not want to douse this rumour so fast. Samantha Ronson made a killing off DJ-ing events while she was dating Lindsay, because the presumption was that they’d come together. They should just team up as a couple, DJ a bunch of events, and split the profits. It would be so fauxmantic! And maybe THEN Samantha will believe that Lindsay really meant it all that time she said she was going to go back to boys.
