Martin Scorsese kidnapped Leonardo DiCaprio. He's presently under contract to produce and star in their 4th film together, The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt. Seems DiCaprio is giving that good old Oscar try.
Toni Collette (Little Miss Sunshine) will be starring in Evening, a drama about “the objectification of women and…how we’re affected by the images that are thrown at us daily.”
Halle Berry and her costar Benicio Del Toro (Traffic) have just wrapped up Things We Lost in the Fire, a drama about "A recent widow invites her husband's troubled best friend to live with her and her two children. As he gradually turns his life around, he helps the family cope and confront their loss."
Joaquin Phoenix and Mark Ruffalo are presently filming Revelation Road with director Terry George (Hotel Rwanda). In the drama, the duo play dads facing serious issues after Phoenix’s child is killed by Ruffalo in a hit-and-run. Ruffalo will also be in The Brass Wall playing an undercover detective infiltrating the Luchese family--seems Hollywood is digging The Departed plot and just might run it into the ground.
Nicholas Cage will be grooming 50 Cent Million Dollar Baby style in the boxing drama, The Dance for 2008 release. It's “a dramatization of the life of one-time champion prize fighter Billy "The Kid" Roth, who has volunteered as a boxing coach for over 40 years in the prisons of Louisiana.”
Victor Rasuk ("Lords of Dogtown") will appear in the drama Reggaeton this year with R&B singer Omarion. It's a film about "A young man from the South Bronx dreams of making it as a rapper, until a run-in with local thugs forces him to hide in Puerto Rico with the father he never knew."
