Jennifer Aniston May Pretend to Be Sandler’s Wife
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Romance, Comedy, Casting, Celebrity Gossip, Upcoming Releases
Jennifer Aniston may play Adam Sandler’s wife in a new movie.
The Baster actress is reportedly in negotiations to star opposite the funnyman in romantic comedy. Plot details about The Pretend Wife - formerly known as Holiday In Hawaii - are being kept firmly under wraps.
Adam’s long-term collaborator Dennis Dugan is expected to direct the Happy Madison production, which is scheduled for release in February 2011.
Jennifer - who was married to Brad Pitt and dated a host of famous men - has previously admitted she wants to be more selective in her movie roles because the storylines seem to come true in her personal life.
“I’m trying to be more careful than I have been in the past about the titles of movies that I choose to be in. It’s funny - I kind of noticed something a couple years ago that there seemed to be this strange parallel to the movies I was doing and my life off screen,” Aniston joked earlier this year. “It started with, well, The Good Girl. Then that evolved into Rumor Has It, followed by Derailed, and then there was The Break-Up. And then on the lighter side was Friends with Money.”

Adam Sandler, Cross-Dresser

The papers have been inked, and Adam Sandler will become the titular star in the new comedy Jack and Jill. Actually, cancel that. He’s the titular stars. That’s right…he’s playing both roles.
In the film, Jack and Jill are twins and the theme is romance. I’m already feeling kind of bad for the guy who’s playing Jill’s love interest…aren’t you?
The Happy Madison project is scheduled for a 2011 release.

REVIEW: I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry
Posted by Johnny Mercedes Categories: Universal, Drama, Comedy, New Releases, Theatrical Reviews
When Larry Valentine (Kevin James), an NYPD fireman and father of two, discovers his children will no longer be pension beneficiaries after the death of his wife, he must find a way to protect them should something happen to him. After saving the life of his longtime friend and co-worker Chuck Levine (Adam Sandler), Larry hatches a plan and convinces Chuck to become his domestic partner – much to Chuck’s chagrin. Everything seems easy at first, but soon the men are challenged by the city of New York and must go to extreme lengths to keep up the charade. Sexy lawyer Alex McDonough (Jessica Biel) steps in to help the gentlemen, but Chuck has a hard time keeping his eyes (and hands) off of the only person with the ability to help them refute the skepticism.
Although Chuck and Larry attempts to show the difficulties homosexuals still have being accepted in society, the themes are contradicted by numerous (and horribly dated) gay jokes and derogatory terms audiences will first find mildly amusing, then awkward and discomforting.
