From HITFIX
Inside Movies & DVD with Drew McWeeny

Gabriele Muccino needs a hit.

And "Passengers" just might be that hit. Especially with Keanu Reeves aboard to star.

The script for "Passengers," written by Jon Spaihts, was impressive and unusual, and it doesn't surprise me that it's actually making its way towards a start date. I'm just shocked it took this long. Morgan Creek is producing the movie, which Muccino is set to direct. He was the filmmaker behind the Will Smith hit "The Pursuit Of Happyness," but was also the filmmaker behind the Will Smith flop "Seven Pounds," meaning he's in the unenviable position right now of reeeeeeeally needing to make a movie that connects with the audience. I'm glad he signed on for this one, because I think it needs a director who isn't genre-obvious.

News : Passengers Details Revealed at Cannes

From The Hollywood Reporter

Thanks Annabelle

CANNES -- A newly reinvigorated Morgan Creek has licensed its latest project, "Passengers," to be directed by Italian auteur Gabriele Muccino, to Medusa in Italy and to Herbert Kloiber's TeleMunchen in Germany. Other deals in key territories are pending on the $90 million pic, which will go out domestically through Universal.

Keanu Reeves already has been locked up as the male lead, while his female love interest is still being sought for what the producers short-handed as "Adam & Eve in Space." The pic also will have a couple of comedic roles and set designs created by some of the wizards who worked on "Avatar."

Thanks Annabelle

Actor Keanu Reeves, who was last year's overall champion of the Toyota Pro-Celebrity race, had to drive as one of the pros in Saturday's race.

He was not a factor, but he was able to come from 30 seconds back to start the race, like the rest of the pros, to take 11th out of 19. He was also the last of the pros who finished the race.

"It was nice training with them (the pros)," said Reeves, the star of such films as "Speed" and the "Matrix" trilogy among others. "Once the race started, they just took off."

This blogger's post is about their experience of the MAAN reading at LA Shakespeare Center on Monday.

Much Ado About Nothing

On Monday, Travis and I drove over to LA to attend the 20th anniversary of "Simply Shakespeare," a celebrity reading of a Shakespeare comedy that raises money for The Shakespeare Center of Los Angeles. Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson are the chairs of this event each year. We got tickets from Cameron and Peggi, Travis' brother and sister-in-law, because they couldn't make it. They got the tickets because they bid on them at an auction and fundraiser.
