Here’s the newest teaser trailer for the upcoming comedy Our Idiot Brother starring Paul Rudd.

As much as I love Paul Rudd‘s comedy, this movie just doesn’t look all that funny to me. The story concept seems more like an episode of a TV show than that of a feature length movie. I’m sure it has it’s moments but I’m starting to doubt this one will be a winner.

Colin Firth and Emily Blunt are starring together in an upcoming comedy as identity thieves.

Oscar winner Colin Firth will star opposite Emily Blunt in an untitled dark comedy to be directed by commercials man Dante Ariola who will make his big screen debut with the project…

…It is set to roll in the fall this year and details the story of man who fakes his own death in an attempt to reinvent himself and meets a woman who is also in the process of trying to escape her old life. They both break into empty houses to seal the identities of the absent owners.

Sounds like a great story, I’m glad Firth is still taking roles like this after his Oscar win. Emily Blunt is always great dramatically and comedically. I’m betting the dynamics between these two could make for some comedy gold. The movie shoots this fall so expect it in theaters late summer/fall of 2012.

Rob Lowe has signed on to star in the upcoming political drama Knife Fight.

…he has signed on to star in Knife Fight, a Bill Guttentag film that deals with the dark side of political operatives. Lowe, who played senior White House aide Sam Seaborn inThe West Wing and California senator Robert McCallister in Brothers and Sisters,this time will star in the lead role of a political crisis specialist who plays hard and tough in dealing with various October campaign surprises. The picture is coming together with the plan to shoot in San Francisco in June for release in October, 2012 for the Presidential Election.

Lowe certainly fits this type of role, he has a very political look about him. It’s interesting how hollywood takes advantage of political focused times to release movies like this. It’s smart, but at the same time what if everyone is burnt out on election coverage and politics in October 2012? I probably will be.

Jack Black is set to star in the upcoming comedy Blackout.

…Bailout, a Michael Winterbottom-directed comedy that will star Jack Black. The film is based on the Jess Walter novel The Financial Lives of The Poets. Walter adapted his novel, which follows the misadventures of Matt Prior (Black), who loses his job, is crippled with debt and is convinced his wife is having an affair. He’s two weeks from losing his home when he meets two losers at the supermarket who offer him a strange business opportunity and his last chance to save himself.

Sounds like a fun story, Black needs some starring roles like this that aren’t too outlandish. It’s good to see him do comedy with a little real drama mixed in. He’s a great actor and it’s rare to see him show his dramatic side, hopefully this will be a good chance to see it.

Shania: I hope that other people relate to this.  Even in finding my own voice because it’s blocked my voice. This lack of self-expression.  I hope that through finding my own voice that it speaks for others as well.
Ellen: You are helping others ..I know how hard this is.  I personally feel an obligation.  This fame we have a platform if we can help other people…
Shania: Exactly
Ellen: We can be an example and be a story for somebody out there to have the strength and say they did it. I can do it. So you are doing that.
Shania:  This platform is great.  It’s fantastic but it’s so much more meaningful to use it for a deeper meaning, a deeper personal meaning.

Shania on if she will sing again
Ellen: I know you said, it’s affected your voice and you haven’t been able to sing since all this happened. So, it’s taking a physical as well as an emotional toll on you. Do you think you will sing again?
Shania: Yes, I will sing again.  Absolutely.
Ellen: We want see you sing again.  We want to hear that. You have such a beautiful voice.   The more you keep talking about it the more your voice is going to open up and I can’t wait to hear you sing again.  I can’t wait.
