BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Bill Murray To Star In Rock the Kasbah

Mitch Glazer, who wrote Murray's 1988 comedy "Scrooged," penned the script for the project, which will be introduced to buyers at the Toronto International Film Festival

Bill Murray will star in Rock the Kasbah, a comedy to be directed by Barry Levinson.

QED’s Bill Block, Venture Forth’s Jacob Pechenik and Shangri-La Entertainment’s Steve Bing will produce the project, which QED will introduce at the Toronto International Film Festival.

According to QED, Kasbah "is the story of a burned-out music manager who goes to Afghanistan on the USO tour with his last remaining client. When he finds himself abandoned, penniless and without his passport, he discovers a young girl with an extraordinary voice, who stows away with him back to Kabul to compete on the popular television show The Afghan Star, Afghanistan’s equivalent of American Idol."

Mitch Glazer, who wrote Murray’s 1988 comedy Scrooged, penned the script.

In QED’s announcement, Block called Murray and Levinson “the perfect team to capture the lunacy, heartbreak and hope of this story.”

At Toronto, the company will be selling Fading Gigolo, starring John Turturro and Woody Allen; Fanny, starring Richard Gere; Are We Officially Dating? starring Zac Efron; and two David Ayer movies, Sabotage and Fury.

Levinson was due to direct Black Mass, a crime drama starring Johnny Depp, but those plans fell apart when Depp backed out.

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
