According to "Deadline", crazy comedy
DRINKING BUDDIES has got itself a stellar cast:
Olivia Wilde, Ron Livingston and
Anna Kendrick will star in the story which centres on Chris (
Ron Livingston), a man who becomes flirtatious friends with a woman (
Anna Kendrick). Their relationship quickly spirals into something Chris never expected.
Meanwhile, our ladies can breathe easily (or pant easily) since it has been officially announced today that
MAGIC MIKE will fling his magic at us again in a sequel! The film which earned almost $80 million so far, has a story for the second part in the works currently. Channing says they want to make it bigger (and ladies will love to see it bigger, yes?).
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
According to "Entertainment Weekly", THE HOBBIT and ROBIN HOOD star
Richard Armitage has been cast in tornado thriller
CATEGORY SIX which centres on the worst tornado in American history, as captured by a group of local high school students through their cell phones and other devices.
Richard Armitage is playing a widowed father, who enlists the help of storm chasers to find his missing son. The most irritating actress from
THE WALKING DEAD Sarah Wayne Callies has also been cast in the film, which might be a good news, since the shooting of the film is parallel to the shooting of the AMC show meaning that her character horrid Lori might not survive the end of the third season :)
THE DROWNING CITY
And straight from Comic Con comes the news that graphic novel
JOE GOLEM AND THE DROWNING CITY will be adapted into a film by Constantin film. The
Mike Mignola and
Christopher Golden novel to be adapted by
Alex Proyas is set in 1970's Manhattan, where earthquakes and rising sea levels left the city under water fifty years earlier.
