Film and Theatre Lover!
For some reason I really like the sound of this . . . random I know.
Funnyman Jim Carrey could soon be taking orders from Jodie Foster – the actress is in talks to direct his new film The Beaver.
The movie, written by Kyle Killen, is about a man who becomes reliant on his beaver hand puppet for company.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Steve Carrell, who was previously linked to the leading role, looks set to be replaced by Carrey and Foster is in negotiations to helm the project.
Thats cool that he can take real life experiences into his acting.
Robert Pattinson had no problems playing a man experiencing an identity crisis in his new film – he suffered severe teenage angst before his career took off.
The Twilight star was torn between training to become an actor or pursuing academic success at university when he was younger.
Fame called out to Pattinson and he landed his first major role playing wizard Cedric Diggory in 2005’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
But the career dilemma helped the 22 year old relate to his role in How To Be, in which he plays Art, a man who is going through a ‘quarter life crisis’.
Pattinson says, “It’s just kind of feeling you don’t really know where you’re going in the world. At the time I thought that – I didn’t know if I wanted to be an actor, I didn’t know what I was doing, I hadn’t been to university.
“I was bumming around, not feeling particularly good at anything but at the same time desperately wanting to and thinking ‘You’ll never reach your own goals you set for yourself’.”
Awww poor Hugh !!!
Action man Hugh Jackman has dashed his hardman persona – he’s scared of dolls coming to life.
The X-Men star admits he is spooked whenever kids’ toys are brought to life on-screen – and he has traced his fears back to watching horror movie Child’s Play as a youngster, which featured a murderous doll named Chucky.
He says, “When dolls come to life in films, that just freaks me out, I just can’t stand that. Chucky? Forget that. I remember when I was a little kid, and that little doll in the rocking chair going, ‘Take the girl right up the hill and kiss the girl goodbye’… I’m like, forget that! That freaks me out.”
I love that he thought it was cool, haha.
British actor Christian Bale has been left with a disfigured finger after slicing off the top of the digit in a dirt-biking accident.
The Dark Knight star hurt himself during an action excursion earlier this year and has been left with a mangled left index finger which will be scarred for life.
But Bale admits he barely felt the injury – and didn’t realise how serious it was until he caught sight of his bloodied hand.
He says, “I had a dirt-biking accident and chopped it off at the end. You have something as extreme as that – you’ve lost the end of your finger – but it didn’t hurt.
“I just kept looking at it, going, ‘Why is that not hurting?’ The body’s amazing. It (the finger) looks horrible. Everyone else almost faints looking at it.”
