Kidman and Theron Go Out for Danish Nicole Kidman and Charlize Theron both won Oscars for playing lesbians and for wearing fake noses - in The Hours and Monster, respectively - but the mind reels about what kind of prostheses will be required for their next movie. The Danish Girl will star the duo as real-life artists Einar and Greta Wegener. Einar (Kidman) began life as a man but later became the world's first Transsexual in 1931; Einar's road to womanhood began when he stood in for a female model in a painting that Greta (Theron) was creating. Anand Tucker (Shopgirl, Hilary and Jackie) will direct from Lucinda Coxon's adaptation of David Ebershoff's book. Look for Kidman and Theron to astound the world almost as much as the real Wegeners did, when The Danish Girl eventually hits theaters. Fonda Returns to Broadway with Moises Kaufman She's a producer, memoirist, exercise guru, and multi-Oscar-winning actress, but film legend Jane Fonda's roots go all the way back to Broadway. And while she hasn't strutted and fretted her hour upon the stage since the early 1960s, Fonda is preparing her return to the Great White Way in a new play written and directed by Moises Kaufman, the Gay writer behind The Laramie Project. 33 Variations focuses on a musicologist (Fonda) and her study of Beethoven's obsession with a particular piece of music. Fonda hasn't been completely absent from the stage - in recent years, she's participated in several one-night-only special presentations of Eve Ensler's The Vagina Monologues. Get ready for New York to be abuzz when the woman who was Barbarella returns to Broadway this winter. Landon's Career Remains Hot with Burning Palms Burning Palms may sound like a clothing-optional Gay resort, but it's actually the new film written and directed by Christopher Landon, the openly Gay son of TV legend Michael Landon. On the heels of Christopher's success as the co-writer of the hit Disturbia, this Hollywood legacy returns with a new satire that pokes fun at the residents of various segments of Los Angeles, and Burning Palms boasts an interestingly eclectic ensemble. Slated to star in the film are Dylan McDermott, Shannen Doherty, Lake Bell, Nick Stahl, Zoe Saldana, Adriana Barraza (Babel), Colleen Camp and Rosamund Pike. They'll play characters whose storylines overlap in five different vignettes set in different L.A. neighborhoods. Watch for the smoke in 2009. Soon, We'll All Be Spartacus The smash success of 300 put muscular, leggy men in togas back on the cultural radar, and Xena exec producer Sam Raimi (who directed some obscure art films with Spider-Man in the title) intends to keep them there. Raimi is one of the driving forces behind Spartacus, a new series for the Starz cable channel that centers around a legendary slave rebellion against the Roman Empire. Insiders say the show will shoot for the same intense violence and distinctive graphic-novel look of both 300 and Sin City, so Romeo figures that means lots of oiled up, brawny lugs fighting each other to the death in leather miniskirts. And that's good TV! Spartacus starts shooting in New Zealand at the beginning of the year with an eye to unfurling its muscular majesty on Starz next summer. Romeo San Vicente keeps 300 stored in his iPhone as a little pick-me-up on those "down" days. He can be reached care of this publication or at DeepInsideHollywood@qsyndicate.com. |
