At the Movies: Reese Goes Missing from Remake

Reese Witherspoon is missing... from Bunny Lake Is Missing, of which she is producer and star, says Variety. With production set to start in five weeks, Witherspoon has abruptly dropped out of the remake, leaving the studio to scramble for a replacement.... Universal is developing Nick Redfern's Three Men Seeking Monsters: Six Weeks in Pursuit of Werewolves, Lake Monsters, Giant Cats, Ghostly Devil Dogs and Ape-men as a starring vehicle for Napoleon Dynamite's Jon Heder and a back-breaking straw for theater marquees everywhere.... Per the Hollywood Reporter, My Name Is Earl's Jason Lee will play live-action "dad" Dave Seville to computer-animated Alvin and the Chipmunks. Sounds good, doesn't it, Alvin? Alvin...? Alvin!!!!
