Sacha Baron Cohen To Play Walter Mitty? The next twist in the long development of a remake of The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty has just struck Hollywood – Sacha Baron Cohen is the latest name rumored to be starring in the film, according to Pajiba. Adapted from 1947’s Danny Kaye comedy, Walter Mitty is one of those movies that attracts major talent, but can’t ever seem to make it to the screen. First mooted in 1994 with Jim Carrey starring for New Line, it’s been passed like a brightly wrapped present at a child’s birthday present between studios and directors, with Paramount and DreamWorks both involved, Ron Howard briefly attached and Steven Spielberg making it one of the 73,000 films he’s planned to direct over the years. Carrey dropped out, Owen Wilson became attached, and Spielberg just couldn’t find the time (he is, after all, a very busy man). And not to mention the screenplays – half the script doctors in LA and beyond have had their paws on it. Now 20th Century Fox, whi

Steve Carell Next Project To Be Directed By Glenn Ficarra and John Requa Glenn Ficarra and John Requa are in negotiations to direct Warner Bros.' untitled Steve Carell/Dan Fogelman project. Written as a spec by Fogelman, the comedy with dramatic elements follows a father deals with a marital crisis while managing a relationship with his children.

Both seem to be neck and neck at this stage. Ficarra and Requa, best known for penning "Bad Santa, wrote and directed "I Love You Phillip Morris," which stars Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor and op

New Trailer For Disney’s A Christmas Carol This movie just nothing for me. When the trailer was shown during Comic Con, Yeah it looked good in 3-d, but Jim Carrey? Not a huge fan of his at all. Movie looks very dark, one thing is for sure not going to take the kids to see it, just to dark. The thing I did like about is the CG and that is pretty much it. It looks great. The movie has followed the trend of having a version which will be in IMAX 3D and I wonder how Dickens would have reacted to seeing his book in 3-D, then again any form that's not a book would have been a shocking surprise. Well this movie is one of the early Christmas films, the which has a strong cast and Disney behind it. Disney’s A Christmas Carol, ” a multi-sensory thrill ride re-envisioned by Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Robert Zemeckis, captures the fantastical essence of the classic Dickens tale in a groundbreaking 3-D motion picture event. Ebenezer Scrooge (Jim Carrey) begins the Christmas holiday wit
