Pullman To Boycott Schools Over U.K. Paedophile Laws

17 July 2009 1:06 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

The Golden Compass author Philip Pullman has vowed to stop undertaking school visits in Britain - because of the U.K. government's "sinister" new laws to ensure adults entering classroom are not paedophiles.

The writer, whose His Dark Materials debut was transformed into a blockbuster starring Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig, regularly visits schools across the U.K. to encourage young people to take up creative writing.

But due to new laws set down by Britain's government, anybody who wishes to make school visits must pay $96 (£64) to sign up to a vetting list to ensure they are not on the child abusers register.

And Pullman, along with legendary illustrator Quentin Blake, has threatened to boycott all schools over the new system - insisting it makes youngsters view every adult as a potential threat.

He tells BBC Radio 4, "Why should I have to pay £64 to a government agency to give me a little certificate to say that I am not a paedophile?

"It's actually rather dispiriting and sinister. It's the assumption that anyone who comes into contact with children for any reason whatsoever is up to no good and likely to be a rapist or a murderer and has to be checked out in advance to show that they're not.

"It will encourage children to believe that no adult will ever approach them other than to prey on them or do them harm."

No Discounts For Craig & Jackman's Broadway Run

15 July 2009 9:11 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

Producers of Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig's new Broadway show A Steady Rain are feeling the effects of the worldwide credit crunch - ticket discounts for top talent agents have been banned.

The 007 star will make his Broadway debut opposite seasoned theatre star Jackman on 10 September in the dramatic play - about a pair of police officers whose friendship is strained when they mistakenly return a Vietnamese boy to a cannibalistic serial killer.

According to the New York Post, agents are in uproar after receiving a memo indicating a new policy restricts sales to not-for-profit organisations, and bans discounts and commissions for theatre talent agents during the 12-week run.

One broker tells the newspaper, "Business is bad enough these days be cause of the economy. This will choke us further."

Hugh Jackman Interested in a Quirky Comedy - Avon Man?

15 July 2009 3:50 AM, PDT | From firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news

So where do go next with your career when coming off of hosting the Oscars and playing a jacked superhero for the fourth time? Well, first to Broadway, for a short time on stage alongside of Daniel Craig. Then how about to a high concept comedy from the same guy who wrote Hitch? Variety reports that 20th Century Fox has acquired Avon Man, a comedy pitch from writer Kevin Bisch, who's only credit is Hitch, besides being first assistant director on some short called White Light. Hugh Jackman might star as the main character - a car salesman who loses his job and turns reluctantly to the sales of Avon cosmetics to make ends meet. This recession comedy apparently has a Full Monty vibe to it because Jackman's character sets out to save his financially strapped family and town by enlisting his buddies into the makeup business to win a

Ding Dong! Hugh Jackman Is Avon Calling

Oh for the day that, instead of ladies pushing the good word of the Lord through your letterbox, an Avon representative would ring the doorbell, and you'd open the door to find Hugh Jackman standing there. Well that day is nearly here, as Jackman throws off his adamantium claws in favour of nail polish, lipstick and blush for comedy Avon Man.Pitched by Hitch writer Kevin Bisch, it will follow a car salesman (Jackman) who loses his job and turns reluctantly to the sales of cosmetics to make ends meet. The recessionary tale will, according to reports, be a little Full Monty in tone as he enlists his other out-of-work mates to join the powder-puff gang to win a regional contest.Jackman is currently limbering up for a stint on the Broadway boards, playing a cop alongside Daniel Craig in A Heavy Rain from September.

Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig hit Broadway

11 July 2009 10:57 AM, PDT | From Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news

First it was Doctor Who meets Captain Picard in Hamlet. Now it's James Bond meeting Wolverine.

Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig will appear in the Broadway production A Steady Rain this fall, a play about two Chicago policemen and how the events of a few days change their lives forever.

Jackman has been on the New York stage before, winning a Tony for his role in the musical The Boy from Oz, but this is Craig's Broadway debut, although he has appeared in the West End.

A Steady Rain is expected to open on September 29 and run for 12 weeks. Previews begin on September 10 at the Schoenfeld Theater. Tickets are expected to sell very quickly, for some reason. Let the fangirl drooling begin.

Bond meets Wolvie

9 July 2009 4:10 PM, PDT | From JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news

If you've wondered why Daniel Craig hasn't been packing his schedule with non-007 projects, it's apparently because he's planning to spend several months solving crimes with Hugh Jackman.  The downside is that tickets might cost you up to a steep $130 -- because the duo is teaming up on Broadway for the police play "A Steady Rain." Although Jackman is known more for song-and-dance on stage (he won a Tony for the Peter Allen musical "The Boy from Oz"),...

Jack Ryan, Meet the New You: George Clooney

8 July 2009 11:18 AM, PDT | From ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news

[Update: It now appears that Jack Ryan will get the reboot treatment see the end of the article for details.]

Let’s throw another pancake on the Jack Ryan flapjack stack, shall we? First we had a Baldwin (The Hunt for Red October), then we had Indiana Jones (Patriot Games, Clear And Present Danger), then we had Ben Affleck (The Sum of All Fears), and after that one, the trail ended, and rightfully so.

But recently, the Jack Ryan Rumor Mill has been stirring again, producing some interesting pulp about a certain man-hunk taking over the role for the rumored next Jack Ryan film.

 

Last year, Screen Rant reported that Ryan Gosling was being considered for the role of Jack Ryan, a rumor confirmed by the director of two Jack Ryan films, Philip Noyce. What’s more, Noyce pointed out that not only will he not be involved with the next Jack Ryan film, the character’s creator, Tom Clancy, won’t be either.

It seems Paramount owns the rights

8 July 2009 3:40 AM, PDT | From Boxwish.com | See recent BoxWish news

With a record amount of rain hitting the UK yesterday, sunglasses might seem like an optimistic choice for this week’s fashion fix, but hey! We’re certain the sun will start shining soon and even if it doesn’t, sunglasses make a style essential. And we’ve got a pair with timeless class, a fantastic lookalike for those worn by Johnny Depp as infamous bank robber John Dillinger in 1930s gangster epic Public Enemies. Simply throw on a fedora as well and you’re instantly one seriously smooth gent – just don’t go robbing any banks!

The real sunglasses worn by Depp were authentic 1930s specs picked up by the movie’s hard-working wardrobe department led by Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood and have appeared on eBay since their big screen outing though failed to sell (see here). This led us to hunt down a lookalike and we’re
