News on Oliver Stone's Bush...other notes...

Hey guys. So, with the upcoming film "W" (originally called Bush, so, that's where this post gets it's title), comes a probable mountain of controversy. It would be controversial based soley on the subject matter, however, Oliver Stone is at the helm, so expect the blogosphere to be running on full blast in the upcoming months. There hasn't been much news out of Stone's camp about the film, however, we do know that Josh Brolin, just coming off a brilliant 2007 in American Gangster, No Country For Old Men, Grindhouse, and the little seen The Dead Girl, will be playing our 43rd and current President. Now we also know who will play his wife. Elizabeth Banks, best known as the hot bookstore worker from The 40 Year Old Virgin will be playing Laura Bush. Interesting casting choice...

It's been a really slow week, so the only other piece of news that I have is that Ian McKellen will be reprising his role as Gandolf in the upcoming Hobbit film, which actually, at this stage, is officially without a director. Guillermo del Toro has been said as being the director, however, nothing is official yet, so we will have to wait and see...

go see something good!
