Cynthia Nixon Dresses Up for Naked Sequel Without making too much of a fuss about it, Cynthia Nixon is proving that actors can come out and still play straight characters. What's also notable about Nixon is how she'll go from blockbuster Hollywood movie to well-received stage appearance to TV guest-star role with the greatest of ease. Next up for her is a turn as real-life performance artist and scenester Penny Arcade in An Englishman in New York, a sequel to the groundbreaking 1975 TV movie The Naked Civil Servant, about the Gay life and even gayer times of the legendary Quentin Crisp. John Hurt returns as Crisp, and the cast also features Jonathan Tucker (The Deep End) and Swoosie Kurtz. No date yet on when Englishman, currently shooting in London and Manhattan, will hit screens. Reubens, Moore, Thompson Ready for More Happiness They're all Gay icons, for different reasons, but what kind of movie could unite Paul Reubens, Demi Moore, and Emma Thompson? A sequel to the wildly outrageous and controversial Happiness, of course. Director Todd Solondz (who also gave us Welcome to the Dollhouse) has been working for years on a followup to his 1998 art-house hit about suburban sexual dysfunction, and now he's assembled one of the most oddly eclectic casts in recent memory. If you've never seen Happiness, it's a scathingly dark comedy complete with a friendly neighborhood pederast, on-screen ejaculation, and the most miserable obscene phone calls imaginable (courtesy of Philip Seymour Hoffman, of all people). Romeo looks forward to a release date for this new film, just so he can start counting down the days. Don't Look Up, Daniela Sea! One of the few openly lesbian stars of The L Word, Daniela Sea has turned heads not only with her portrayal of Trans guy Max on the Showtime series but also for her memorable appearance in Shortbus. Now the androgynous actor is taking a stab at Asian horror with a role in Don't Look Up, the latest from Chinese scare-master Fruit Chan (Dumplings). The new movie deals with members of a film production crew who are slowly being driven insane by evil spirits being released from old celluloid. Joining Sea in the frightfest are indie film stalwarts Henry Thomas (E.T.), Kevin Corrigan (Pineapple Express), and Lothaire Bluteau (Jesus of Montreal). See Sea get spooked when Don't Look Up haunts theaters in 2009. Gypsies, Tramps, and...Catwoman? Romeo was admittedly a little disappointed to hear that the rumors about Cher, age 62, playing Catwoman in the eventual sequel to summer hit The Dark Knight turned out not to be true. Heck, after the disastrous Halle Berry version, why not let the Dark Lady give us a feline villainess who's more cougar than cat? But if Cher's not going to take the role, Romeo's mind reels with other possibilities. Sure, there's the obvious choice of Angelina Jolie, but why not get a little creative? If you want a woman the Gays love and who can pull off a form-fitting costume and snarl hard enough to send the Caped Crusader cringing off to the Batcave, why not cast Sandra Bernhard? Or Kylie Minogue? Or Shannen Doherty? Or Gina Gershon? Anyone but Madonna, OK? Just throwing it out there, Hollywood. Romeo San Vicente still entertains impure thoughts about George Clooney and Chris O'Donnell in their Batman and Robin costumes.
