Interview: Chiwetel Ejiofor on American Samurai Journey ?Redbelt? From Mind
2008-05-14 01:04:00 CHICAGO ? Chiwetel Ejiofor (pronounced choo-ih-tell edge-o-for) has been a stalwart film actor ever since his dramatic debut in Steven Spielberg?s ?Amistad?. Since then, he has been a go-to character actor for directors as diverse as Spike Lee, Woody Allen and Stephen Frears. His latest film is ?Redbelt,? which is written and directed by the great Chicago playwright David Mamet. Ejiofor plays Mike Terry: a jujitsu master caught between his passion for the martial art discipline and the outside forces that want to exploit his talent for commercial means.

Sigourney Weaver Reunites With Tim Allen
2008-03-25 22:42:00 Sigourney Weaver Reunites With Tim AllenOn his Crazy directorial debutSource: The Hollywood Reporter Good news for fans of Galaxy Quest ? Tim Allen and Sigourney Weaver are back back back!Sadly, they won?t be reuniting on a sequel to their cracking sci-fi comedy. However, their new project, Crazy On The Outside, does sound distinctly interesting, given that it not only marks Allen?s directorial debut, but it?s a comedy about an ex-con trying to go straight.Parallels with Allen?s life will be unavoidable, of course, given that he once served time for cocaine possession ? but perhaps that personal factor is what marked this project out for Allen, and it should be interesting to see a) how much of his own experience will be brought to bear on the screenplay, by Judd Pillott and John Peaslee, and b) how he can put a comic spin on it all.Weaver will play Allen?s loving but manipulative older sister, while the wonderful J.K. Simmons will play her s...

According to Variety, Tim Allen will be making his feature directing debut with Crazy On The Outside. Shooting later this month in Los Angeles, this "adult-themed comedy stars Allen as a parolee who finds life outside a prison cell to be much crazier once he enters his quirky sister's world".
