BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Michelle Monaghan Joins HBO's "OPEN"

The "Source Code" actress will join Anna Torv, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Wes Bentley and Scott Speedman in the sexual drama pilot.

The hypersexual HBO drama pilot has cast Source Code's Michelle Monaghan as Grace, the successful and recently engaged gynecologist in what is being billed as a multicharacter exploration of the complex, ever evolving landscape of sexuality, monogamy and intimacy in relationships.

Monaghan joins the project's four other central characters: Scott Speedman (Jonathan), Wes Bentley (Evan), Anna Torv (Windsor) and Jennifer Jason Leigh (Holly). Principal photography is set to begin in early 2014. Murphy and Lauren Gussis (Dexter) penned the pilot and will executive produce for Ryan Murphy Productions and 20th Century Fox's cable arm Fox 21, which is best known for Showtime's Homeland and FX's Sons of Anarchy.

If ultimately ordered to series, Monaghan will be no stranger to HBO viewers. She stars opposite Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson in the premium cable network's True Detective, an eight-episode drama slated to bow in January 2014. On the film side, she'll star in Claudia Myers' Fort Bliss (with Ron Livingston), A Many Splintered Thing (with Chris Evans) and Better Living Through Chemistry (with Sam Rockwell).

Monaghan, who was the first choice to star in NBC's buzz-worthy drama Blacklist and consistently ranks on the top of casting director wish lists, is repped by ICM Partners, Circle of Confusion and attorney Robert Offer of Sloane Offer.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...
