Casting Net: Kate Hudson joins Zach Braff's Kickstarter project. Plus: Liam Hemsworth, Peter Dinklage, more
15 hours ago | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
• Kate Hudson (Something Borrowed) is set to join Zach Braff’s Wish I Was Here. The story follows 35-year-old husband, father, and struggling actor Aiden Bloom (Braff), who decides to home school his kids when his father (Homeland’s Mandy Patinkin, playing another Saul) has to stop funding their private education. Hudson will play the part of Braff’s wife. Braff famously funded this project through a Kickstarter campaign that actually still has three days left. At the time of posting, the project had raised over $690K beyond its goal of $2 million. The film also stars Anna Kendrick (Pitch Perfect »

Anna Kendrick & Kate Hudson Join Zach Braff's 'Wish I Was Here'
22 hours ago | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Despite some misinformation about the funding coming together for Zach Braff's film Wish I Was Here, following a very successful Kickstarter campaign, it sounds like the Garden State director has his head on straight, and there hasn't really been any deception to those who so graciously helped Braff get his project off the ground. And so the film marches onward with a couple new casting additions. First, The Wrap reports that the lovely Anna Kendrick (Pitch Perfect, 50/50) has landed a supporting role and Deadline pegs Kate Hudson for a role alongside Braff, who is leading the film in addition to writing and directing. For those who don't know yet, the film follows Braff as Aidan, a struggling actor trying to support his wife and and kid as he's still trying to figure out his identity and purpose in life. Aidan only gets through the days fantasizing about being the »

10 Reasons Why Rebel Wilson Is Effing Awesome
20 May 2013 5:30 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
We can't get enough of Rebel Wilson. Here's why.
She's not afraid to take fashion risks.
Her family is way cooler than yours; her parents are professional dog showers, and her siblings' names are Liberty, Ryot and Annachi.
When she has a "wardrobe malfunction," it's for comedic purposes.
She can rap Salt-n-Pepa's "Shoop" better than anyone (even Pepa said so).
She stole every scene in "Pitch Perfect."
And "Bridesmaids."
She's not afraid of Pda.
She strips down to a light-up bra in the preview for her new show "Super Fun Night" (body image, be damned).
After attending the 2013 White House Correspondents' Dinner, Wilson said she told members of Congress that she was the "Princess of Australia" ... and some fell for it.
In her MTV Movie Awards acceptance speech for winning Breakthrough Performance, she coined the term "Australian kiss" ("It's like a French kiss but down under," she explained). »

Rapture-Palooza Gets a Red Hot One-Sheet
16 May 2013 5:05 PM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »
Finally, after two separate red-band trailers, an official piece of artwork for Paul Middleditch’s horror comedy Rapture-Palooza has arrived, and given the subject matter, it's painfully generic! Look for the flick from Lionsgate in limited theaters and on VOD platforms June 7th.
Anna Kendrick, John Francis Daley, Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson, and Ken Jeong star.
The film is best described as Zombieland meets The Big Lebowski, and in the flick a couple battle their way through a religious apocalypse on a mission to defeat the Antichrist.
Synopsis

Casting Couch: Anna Kendrick is Ready For Her Closeup Mr. Braff, Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix Could Be Reuniting, and More
16 May 2013 4:00 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
What is Casting Couch? It’s the news column that’s got its ear to the ground, listening for any juicy tidbits coming out of Cannes. Today people like Uma Thurman, Seann William Scott, Amanda Seyfried, and Bruce Willis all got new jobs. Zach Braff hasn’t yet had much of a career as a film director, but if there’s one thing he’s got more experience shooting than most people, it’s tiny girls wearing giant headphones. So chances are Pitch Perfect star Anna Kendrick will be a perfect fit for the cast of his new movie, Wish I Was Here. The Wrap is reporting that she’s just joined the film in the role of Janine, a chick who’s into cosplay and who the Josh Gad character becomes enamored with. However you feel about the controversy surrounding Braff’s Kickstarter funding of this film, you have to admit, added »

Olivia Wilde and New Girl star Jake Johnson have featured on the first Drinking Buddies poster.
Pitch Perfect's Anna Kendrick and Ron Livingston also appear on the comedy promo, as released by Entertainment Weekly.
It comes with the tagline: "A comedy about knowing when to say when."
Drinking Buddies stars Kate (Wilde) and Luke (Johnson) as co-workers at a brewery, who share a 'will-they-won't-they' friendship.
While having a particular chemistry together, they are also both in a relationship. Kate is seeing Chris (Livingston), while Luke is dating Jill (Kendrick).
Luke is not ready to commit to a serious relationship, and soon finds himself spending an intimate weekend with Kate.
The comedy reportedly included many improvised scenes amongst the cast, and debuted at SXSW. It will be released at Us cinemas on August 23. »
Anna Kendrick Joins Zach Braff's 'Wish I Was Here,' Zac Efron & Amber Heard To Star In Eran Creevy's 'Autobahn'
16 May 2013 7:39 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Damn it. Just when we thought we were going to be able to ignore Zach Braff's controversially crowd-sourced sophomore feature, he goes and casts Anna Kendrick. According to The Wrap, the "Pitch Perfect" star, so often the best thing in whatever she's in, has joined the cast of Braff's currently-prepping "Wish I Was Here." The actress will play the love interest of Braff's character's brother (Josh Gad), a young cosplayer named Janine. Manic Pixie Dream Girl alert! Mandy Patinkin is also in the cast (Mandy Patinkin Dream Girl alert!), and Kendrick will next be seen in the questionable-looking "Rapturepalooza," which opens on June 7th. Someone else we're a big fan of is British director Eran Creevy, who made an ace debut a few years back with "Shifty," and followed it up earlier this year with homegrown actioner "Welcome To The Punch." We've been tipping the filmmaker, who was one »

Upfronts, the Christmas Eve of Us television, are upon us.

ABC's Fall Schedule Announcement: A snap judgment
15 May 2013 11:53 AM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »
Maybe Olivia Pope needs to do some damage control for ABC, which brought back only two of the 10 shows it premiered last season. At the network’s upfront presentation on Tuesday, Kerry Washington appeared in a pre-taped clip as her character from Scandal, and offered advice to Anne Sweeney, the president of Disney/ABC Television Group, alongside Jimmy Kimmel. Discussing the problem of Dancing With the Stars, which took a ratings dip this season, Kimmel quipped, “For one thing, they’re not really stars.” There aren’t a ton of stars in ABC’s new lineup, either — but there are »

New 2013 TV Season Breakdown: ABC
14 May 2013 9:57 PM, PDT | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »
The Fall TV Season presentations for all the new network shows take place this week with the third announced earlier today. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on ABC.
The network is changing up some of its serialized dramas - removing random repeats in favor of two "uninterrupted runs" of twelve episodes each (one in the fall, one in the spring) for shows like "Once Upon A Time," "Grey’s Anatomy," "Scandal" and "Revenge". The large gaps between the two half-seasons will be bridged by "limited series" designed around only 12-13 episode seasons.
Several other pilots didn't make the final cut and won't be seen including the high-profile "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" rip-off "Gothica", McG's rip-off of Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet" entitled "Westside", the series based on Disneyland's Big Thunder Mountain ride, the Annie Potts-led "Murder in Manhattan" about »

Watch: Rebel Wilson's 'Super Fun Night' trailer is super lame
14 May 2013 6:43 PM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
Rebel Wilson deserves better. The "Pitch Perfect" star's new ABC comedy series "Super Fun Night" may sound like a winning proposition on paper - three nerdy girlfriends with no social lives break out of their shells and go on a series of night-life misadventures - but, at least judging from the first trailer released today, the execution leaves something to be desired. For starters, seemingly every lame joke to be made at the expense of Wilson's weight has been tapped here, from "Rebel Wilson rips skirt while executing a high-kick at the office" to "Rebel Wilson dances in form-fitting white cocktail »

Fall TV 2013: Rebel Wilson's 'Super Fun Night' needs work and more ABC comedy snap judgments
14 May 2013 5:58 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
ABC's comedy development has had a rough couple of seasons. The network hasn't had a real breakout since the one-two punch of family comedies "Modern Family" (an ongoing mega hit) and "The Middle" (a modest but stable hit) premiered back in 2009.
Only three comedies launched since then remain on the air: "Suburgatory," which faded enough in Season 2 to be held back for midseason next year; "Last Man Standing," which plays to a base and is otherwise ignored on Friday nights; and "The Neighbors," which will join "Last Man" in its Friday irrelevance in the fall. That means ABC needs to find a few more real players and the network has planned an aggressive launch of four new comedies in the fall and one more on the bench for midseason.
Most of them are broader, family-oriented, concepts modeled more on "Modern Family" than failures like "Happy Endings" or "Don't Trust the B----. »

'Super Fun Night' trailer: Rebel Wilson leads the awkward ladies of this ABC comedy
14 May 2013 2:34 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player
Not all women are perfect. Some lack perfect bodies. Many are awkward. Most don't have a clue about what to do when faced with hot guys and night clubs. "Super Fun Night," the new ABC comedy starring Rebel Wilson ("Pitch Perfect," "Bridesmaids"), is about those women.
Wilson plays Kimmie Boublier, a young lawyer who has spent every Friday night staying in with her best friends, Helen-Alice and Marika (Liza Lapira and Lauren Ash). That all changes when the handsome and British Richard Lovell (Kevin Bishop) invites Kimmie along for a night out. Since it's a Friday night, all of the girls go out for a great night on the town.
It doesn't turn out so great, a fact that is clearly shown in the trailer for the new pilot. Instead, the awkward women descend into a chaos filled with light-up clothing, baring imperfect bodies and a whole lot of yelling. »
