We’ve got a few casting stories for you today. First up, Matthew Macfadyen (The Three Musketeers) has joined the cast of director Joe Wright’s (Hanna) adaptation of Anna Karenina. The Daily Mail (via Dark Horizons) reports that Macfadyen replaces Benedict Cumberbatch in the role of Oblonsky in the film version of Leo Tolstoy’s classic tragic love story. In addition to Macfadyen, Olivia Williams, Domhnall Gleeson and Andrea Risebourough have joined the cast as well. Keira Knightley, Jude Law, Aaron Johnson and Kelly Macdonald are set to star in the Tom Stoppard-scripted (Shakespeare in Love) flick. Filming is set to begin this fall.
Next up, Patricia Arquette has joined the cast of brother David’s directing vehicle Glutton. The psychological thriller stars Abraham Benrubi (ER) as a 1,200 pound bedridden man. Arquette and Kacey Barnfield play the two female leads in the 3D flick. Variety reports that Arquette will play the man’s sister, while Barnfield will take on the role of a blind neighbor. Hit the jump for the casting of Adhir Kalyan in the indie film Samaritan as well as a synopsis of the book Anna Karenina. http://collider.com/matthew-macfadyen-anna-karenina-patricia-arquette-glutton/94647/  

First Trailer for THE VOW Starring Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: June 3rd, 2011

The first trailer for director Michael Sucsy’s (Grey Gardens) drama The Vow has gone online. Starring Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum, the film was inspired by a true story and centers on a young woman (McAdams) who loses all recent memory in a car accident and struggles to rebuild her identity, while her husband (Tatum) tries to win her heart for the second time. Surprisingly, this is not based on a Nicholas Sparks novel.
Judging from the trailer, the flick looks like it’s better than it has to be. McAdams is a fine actress, and Sucsy’s work on HBO’s Grey Gardens was fantastic. Tatum’s been trying to work his way into more dramatic fare (both in acting and producing), but I’m still not sold on him as a serious actor. Hit the jump to watch the trailer for yourself. The Vow hits theaters February 10^th, 2012. http://collider.com/the-vow-movie-trailer/94638/

Jim Carrey Working on "Bruce Almighty" and "Dumb and Dumber" Sequels

Posted: June 4th, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff


ComingSoon caught up with Jim Carrey, who revealed that he's planning to bring back some of his most popular characters.

"We're talking about maybe returning to some old characters that everyone has been asking about," he said. "There's 'Bruce Almighty' and we're talking about maybe another 'Dumb and Dumber.'"

Tom Shadyac directed "Bruce Almighty" and "Evan Almighty," but it's unlikely he'll want to return for another installment out of fear of making money or being forced to use a cell phone [read story here].

Regarding a "Dumb and Dumber" sequel, the Farrelly brothers spoke about the film three months ago, stating: "If we could get those two guys back together, Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels that might be a worthwhile sequel – and that ball is in motion. We're starting to think about what those two dimwits would be doing twenty-years later in life, and hopefully we'll be able to come up with something worthy of a sequel."
