Emma Watson Stalker Crashes ‘Noah’ Set
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Paramount, Drama, Period, Religious, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors, Upcoming Releases
Whether she's Hermione attending school at Hogwarts or her non-magical self on the set of Noah, Emma Watson has not had a good relationship with the woods.
While filming Darren Aronofsky's film adaptation of the biblical story in Long Island, NY, Watson "screamed in terror" when she ran into a man among the trees - a man whom she recognized from hanging around her home. The man tried to escape the set, but security managed to capture him and sent for the police, although he was let off with a warning for trespassing.
"It was really creepy. Emma was really shaken up and was given some time to compose herself," a source told The Sun.
According to the insider, the stalker run-in only adds to Watson's stress about filming the project: "The movie has been grueling anyway and this left a very sinister feeling hanging over the set."

Russell Crowe ‘Reeks’ on Noah Set
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Paramount, Drama, Period, Religious, Celebrity Gossip, Filmmaking, Rumors, Upcoming Releases
Russell Crowe is refusing to wash on the set of his new movie.
The Oscar-winning actor is playing the title role in Darren Aronofsky's new movie Noah, and sources say he is shunning many of the modern world's inventions in order to get into character from the biblical times. This includes not showering and or using deodorant, which has not gone down well with the other members of the cast and crew.
"He's been experimenting with skipping showers, which is something he did on Gladiator as well, to get an appropriately gritty look. He has to look like a very old, very weather man for this movie but you don't want to be inhaling when he walks past. He reeks!" one source said.
Russell has also gained 15lbs for the role, but sources say it is not helping his personal hygiene. "All of this is combining to make a pot pourri of foulness, and everyone is counting down the days until the project is done!" the source added.

Box Office Breakdown: Titans Disappoints Date Night
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, DreamWorks, Disney, MGM, Lionsgate, Paramount, Sony, Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Animation, Drama, Family, Independent, Religious, Remakes, Science Fiction, Sequels, Comedy, Box Office, Lists

Looks like Sunday wasn’t a great day for a Date Night.
Despite early predictions that the Steve Carell/Tina Fey laugher would end the weekend with a $27.1 million take and a first place finish, the movie wound up falling slightly short. When the final numbers were turned in, the Shawn Levy-directed comedy had raked in just $25.2 million in ticket sales - positioning it right between Clash of the Titans and How to Train Your Dragon.
Although Date Night did not come close to surpassing Carell’s personal best (Get Smart opened to $38.7 million in 2008), it did top Fey’s previous high (Baby Mama‘s $17.4 million from 2008).
Meanwhile, the only other entry in this weekend’s Top 10 was a movie that only opened in 897 theaters. Letters to God - which only grossed $1.1 million and a $1,228 per screen average - helped push Shutter Island and She’s Out of My League off the charts.
