Casting Call: Susan Sarandon in I HATE YOU DAD, Jennifer Hudson Joins THE THREE STOOGES, Johnny Knoxville in FUN SIZE, and Seth Green, Michelle Trachtenberg and More in SEXY EVIL GENIUS

by Adam Chitwood Posted: June 1st, 2011

We’ve got quite a few casting stories for you today. First up, Susan Sarandon has joined the cast of the Adam Sandler/Andy Samberg comedy I Hate You Dad. The comedy revolves around a father who moves in with his son and his son’s fiancé just before they’re about to get married, with Leighton Meester set to play Samberg’s fiancée. THR reports that in addition to Sarandon, Will Forte, Milo Ventimiglia, Eva Amurri (Californication), Blake Clark, Meagan Fay (Party Down), Tony Orlando, Dan Patrick and previously announced James Caan are all in negotiations to join the Sean Anders-directed comedy. Sarandon will play a sexy teacher who is the mother of Samberg’s character.
Additionally, Jennifer Hudson is the latest actor to join the cast of the Farrelly brothers’ The Three Stooges. The film stars Will Sasso as Curly, Sean Hayes as Larry, Chris Diamantopoulos as Moe, Jane Lynch, Larry David, Stephen Collins and Craig Bierko. Deadline reports that Hudson will play Sister Rosmary at the orphanage that the Stooges are raised. Lynch and David play two other (presumably evil) nuns at the orphanage. The Three Stooges is currently filming. Hit the jump for the casting news of Johnny Knoxville and a lot more in Fun Size and Seth Green, Michelle Trachtenberg, Katee Sackhoff, Harold Perrineau and Billy Baldwin in Sexy Evil Genius. http://collider.com/susan-sarandon-i-hate-you-dad-jennifer-hudson-three-stooges/94114/

Focus Features Sets TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY for November 18th

by Matt Goldberg Posted: June 1st, 2011

If you were wondering whether or not Tomas Alfredson’s adaptation of John Le Carre’s Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy was being set up for an awards run, you now have your answer. Variety reports that Focus Features has set the spy thriller for November 18th. The story centers on “George Smiley (Gary Oldman), a veteran spy pulled out of semi-retirement to ferret out a Soviet agent in MI6.” Oldman is already receiving early buzz on his performance and he’s bolstered by a strong supporting cast that includes Colin Firth, Tom Hardy, Mark Strong, Ciarán Hinds, Stephen Graham, and Benedict Cumberbatch. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the film premiere at the Toronto Film Festival in September, but nothing has been announced on that front.
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy has some tough competition on November 18th, but it’s not going for the same audience. Also opening that weekend is The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 and Happy Feet Two, which obviously are going for after a different demographic than Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. Hit the jump for a synopsis of the novel.

Kevin Dillon Learns How to Be a Gentleman
Entourage star Kevin Dillon has landed the second lead in the new CBS pilot How to Be a Gentleman alongside David Hornsby.

The pilot, which is based off the book of the same name by John Bridges, centers on Allan, an uptight man (David Hornsby) who gets life lessons from his exuberant friend, Bert. Kevin Dillon will portray Bert, who has a youthful outlook on life, although he tends to overstep his boundaries.

David Hornsby wrote the pilot script. It is unclear when the pilot will go into production.

Kevin Dillon will next be seen playing Johnny Drama on the eighth and final season of Entourage, which will premiere sometime this summer on HBO.

Mary Lynn Rajskub and Michelle Trachtenberg Land Roles on CBS Pilots
Two CBS pilots have added new cast members with Mary Lynn Rajskub joining How to Be a Gentleman and Michelle Trachtenberg signing on for an Untitled Peter Knight Project.

Mary Lynn Rajskub will play Janet on How to Be a Gentleman, the no-nonsense sister of David Hornsby's character, Alan. We reported earlier today that Kevin Dillon signed on to play Bert, who tries to teach Alan about how to live a better life. David Hornsby wrote the pilot script.

Michelle Trachtenberg is set to play Grace, the female lead on the Untitled Peter Knight Project. The program is a workplace comedy centering on the young workers at a venture capital firm. Grace turns some heads when she's promoted from the mailroom to a junior associate position. The promotion is devastating to Danny, who trained with Grace and also has a crush on her. Tim Peper has also joined the cast of this untitled project, playing the best friend of Danny. The Danny role has yet to be cast.

It isn't clear when these pilots will begin production.

Emily Spivey wrote the pilot script and will executive produce alongside Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels. No production schedule was given for the pilot.
