Matt Damon & Wife Luciana Are Expecting Again!

Either I’ve been at this too long or Matt Damon and his wife Luciana Barroso are seriously fertile, because I could have sworn they just had a baby.    But it’s true:  Matt and Luciana are expecting again.

This will be their third child together, but Luciana’s fourth – her daughter Alexia is from a previous marriage.  The new baby will join sisters Isabella and Gia.

Congratulations to the family!

Matt Damon Looks Stressed Out on New ‘Green Zone’ Poster

green_zone

Here’s the first poster for the upcoming film Green Zone starring Matt Damon.

Pretty straightforward poster here, nothing too flashy. I think it’s just trying to illustrate the gritty feel of the film, he definitely looks stressed. Doesn’t stray too far from the Borne film posters…

I wonder if he has all these posters up in the walls of his house.

Clint Eastwood’s ‘Invictus’ Trailer Starring Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman

invictus1

Here is the trailer for the upcoming film Invictus from director Clint Eastwood starring Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman.

This movie is probably going to be good and everything, but it just looks boring to me. Hopefully it’s very enthralling, I’ll watch it based on the fact that Eastwood directed it.

Matt Damon and Josh Brolin Join The Coen’s ‘True Grit’

damonbrolinbridges

Matt Damon and Josh Brolin seem to be joining Jeff Bridges in the upcoming Coen brothers remake True Grit.

Matt Damon and Josh Brolin are in discussions with Joel and Ethan Coen to join Jeff Bridges in “True Grit,” the re-imagining of the iconic 1969 Western that Paramount Pictures will put into production next March for late 2010 release.

The Coens, who previously attached their “Big Lebowski” star Bridges to play U.S. marshal Rooster Cogburn, are in talks with Damon to play the lawman (played by Glen Campbell in the original) who teams with Cogburn and a 14-year old girl to track her father’s killer into hostile Indian territory.

In a turnabout, Brolin is in talks to play the killer. The actor’s recent rise was greatly helped playing the good guy in the Coens’ Oscar-winning contemporary Western “No Country for Old Men.” Jeff Corey played the killer in the original, and Robert Duvall and Dennis Hopper also played outlaws.

Sign me up! This sounds like a really great film already, talk about throwing together a massive pile of talent! I’ll be keeping you posted on the happenings with this Oscar bait flick.

Sarah Bradford: Definitely Not You Know Whatting Matt Damon

sarah-bradford-douglas-hannant-boutique-opening

Model Sarah Bradford made her runway debut just months ago, but she’s determined to follow in her stepbrother Matt Damon‘s footsteps to the silver screen.  However, some roles are simply too close for comfort.  She told New York Magazine:

Five months ago, I went in for a reading for this movie Matt’s in, The Adjustment Bureau; it’s in production right now in New York. It was for a character named Elise—she is basically queen bee at this ballet academy—and all of a sudden they say, “Are you aware that if you get this role, you’ll be playing Matt’s love, having a love affair with your brother?” My jaw dropped. My manager just completely wasn’t told.  I’m no longer with that manager.  I just read for a more appropriate role in the movie, Elise’s friend, and I got the part. It’s very exciting. What parents wouldn’t want their children to work together?

Well yes.  I’m sure most parents would love their children to work together, just not THAT closely.   You can catch Sarah (without her brother) in the upcoming movies When The Devil Comes and Mountain Park.

Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon on New ‘Invictus’ Poster from Clint Eastwood

invictus

Here’s the new poster for the upcoming Clint Eastwood film Invictus starring Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon.

The film tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela joined forces with the captain of South Africa’s rugby team to help unite their country. Newly elected President Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africa’s rugby team as they make their historic run to the 1995 Rugby World Cup Championship match.

Doesn’t sound like a very exciting movie, in fact it sounds boring. But hey, this is Clint Eastwood directing, I’m sure its a good film. It just seems odd.

Matt Damon Starring in Clint Eastwood’s ‘Hereafter’

matt_damonclint_eastwood_present

Matt Damon is Clint Eastwood‘s favorite leading actor right now, given he’s cast him for the second time in a row in his newest film Hereafter.

Having just worked together on “Invictus,” which will be released later this year, Clint Eastwood and Matt Damon are reteaming for “Hereafter.”

Eastwood will direct the original supernatural thriller by Peter Morgan, with Damon stepping in to the lead role; filming is set to begin this fall.

Clint Eastwood is certainly one of the most prolific and talented directors of our time, Matt Damon must be thrilled to be able to work with him on two movies back to back. I’m sure both will be great films too.

Matt Damon and Michael Douglas to Play Lovers in Liberace Biopic

A new biopic about famed musician Liberace is set to star Michael Douglas and Matt Damon as lovers in the film.

The two have signed on for a biopic about the life of American entertainer Liberace.

As you may know, Liberace was believed to be a homosexual, and had a live-in boyfriend who was much younger than he was. He sued Liberace for $113 million in palimony, despite the entertainer’s vehement denial that he was gay. According to USA Today, Damon will play Liberace’s lover Scott Thorson, while Douglas will play the main role.

Douglas told Canada’s Sun Media, “Matt’s going to be my young lover. Why not? God bless Matt. Hey, it’s easy for me – he’s in his prime. I said to him, ‘Matt, I love you, man. Boy, that ‘Bourne’ (series) must really be going strong.’ But good for him. He’s right taking chances. All those young guys – (George) Clooney – they’re taking risks… It’s smart trying to mix it up a bit and maintain those franchises and still get to do a picture that turns you on.”

Funny concept, talk about an unlikely couple. Michael Douglas seems like a perfect choice to play Liberace. It will be interesting to see how this film is received.
