Heath Ledger's Final Film Resumes Shooting | Today's News: Our Take | 3/10/2008
The last film that Heath Ledger was working on before his death, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, is back in production in Vancouver, according to the Reporter. Director Terry Gilliam and producers halted production when Ledger died Jan. 22. Now that the film's back in action, producers have also explained how Ledger's part will be handled, following the addition of three new actors. In a statement, they said, "Since the format of the story allows for the preservation of his entire performance, at no point will Heath's work be modified or altered through the use of digital technology. Each of the parts played by Johnny [Depp], Colin [Farrell] and Jude [Law] is representative of the many aspects of the character that Heath was playing." — Anna DimondRelated:• Depp, Law and Farrell to Replace Ledger? read more
Depp, Law and Farrell to Replace Heath Ledger? | Today's News: Our Take | 2/15/2008
From Bela Lugosi’s heart attack during Plan 9 from Outer Space and Natalie Wood’s drowning midway through Brainstorm to Brandon Lee’s fatal shooting on the set of The Crow, a number of productions have had to work around the unexpected death of a leading actor. Now it seems Terry Gilliam, the director of Heath Ledger’s last project, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, may have found a most creative way around his own tragic dilemma. According to Ain’t It Cool News, Ledger’s role in the film will now be played by not one but three alternating replacements: Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell and Jude Law.Not much is known about the plot of the film, but Ledger’s character has been described as a man in love with a young woman whose soul has been sold to the devil by her father, the traveling showman of the title, in exchange for eternal youth. No word yet on how the rather extreme differences in the four actors’ looks will be explained.If any one could pu... read more

Age Is Just a Number | Today's News: Our Take | 4/5/2007
As I flipped through the Hollywood news today, I noticed that Jude Law's ex-wife, Sadie Frost, was spotted hanging out with 23-year-old musician Kristian Marr and clearly far past her rocky divorce with the deliciously dangerous Law. Even though this doesn't mean Frost and Marr are officially an item, as I looked at the picture of the 41-year-old brunette looking happy and glowing, I started thinking about couples who seem to find their comfort zone with people outside their age bracket. Halle Berry, 40, has held her relationship with model Gabriel Aubry, 30, steady for some time now.Harrison Ford, 64, and Calista Flockhart, 42, seem to stay under the radar but continue to make a life together.Demi Moore, 44, and Ashton Kutcher, 29; Eva Longoria, 32, and Tony Parker, 24; Katherine McPhee, 23, and Nick Cokas, 41; Michael Douglas, 62, and Catherine Zeta-Jones, 37; and Billy Joel, 57, and Katie Lee, 26, are a few others that come to mind.OK, so Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake didn't... read more
