According to "Variety" three young stars
Dave Franco (James' gay brother),
Hailee Steinfeld (from TRUE GRIT) and
Deborah Ann Woll (TRUE BLOOD) have been offered roles in
ROSALINE,
a period movie adaptation of
Rebecca Serle's debut novel "When You Were Mine". In Shakespeare's famous "Romeo and Juliet," Rosaline was the woman Romeo first claimed to have loved from afar before he became enamored with Juliet. The story in
ROSALINE finds Romeo's jilted ex-girlfriend telling her side of the story. Franco and Hailee would play Romeo and Juliet, which is a bit strange since Hailee is already playing Juliet in
Julian Fellowe's
adaptation of the famous play beside
Douglas Boot. The film will be directed by
Michael Sucsy whose
touching drama THE VOW with
Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams is coming out next February.

Well, it was only a few days ago that I mentioned new stop motion animated flick
PARANORMAN which should hit cinemas next year, and now the first trailer has already been released. Check it out bellow. As you recall, the story of the film is set in a small
town which comes under siege by zombies. Who can it call? Only misunderstood local boy Norman who is able to speak with the dead. In addition to the zombies, he’ll have to take on ghosts, witches and, worst of all, moronic grown-ups, to save his town from a centuries-old curse. But this young ghoul whisperer may find his paranormal activities pushed to their otherworldly limits. I hated the idea with the music in the trailer.
And don't forget to visit
Scottie's
FRONT ROOM CINEMA because he's giving away four movie DVD's. Pop over and say hello :)
