Jack & Jill Cast Interview

Now I will admit that I am not the biggest Adam Sandler fan in the world but there is no denying that the funnyman is box office gold.

No matter what he stars in the film is a hit and this week sees him return with Jack & Jill.

And this time around he takes on not one but two characters as he plays twins Jack & Jill.

This latest video sees Sandler and co-star Katie Holmes talk about their roles and their time on the film:

Jack and Jill is a comedy focusing on Jack Sadelstein, a successful advertising executive in Los Angeles with a beautiful wife and kids, who dreads one event each year: the Thanksgiving visit of his identical twin sister Jill.

Jill’s neediness and passive-aggressiveness is maddening to Jack, turning his normally tranquil life upside down.

Jack And Jill Clips

Everyone’s favourite funnyman, Adam Sandler, is back on the big screen next month with his new movie Jack And Jill.

The movie sees Sandler take on the duel roles of both Jack and Jill while he is joined on the cast list by Katie Holmes and Al Pacino.

Jack and Jill is a comedy focusing on Jack Sadelstein (Sandler), a successful advertising executive in Los Angeles with a beautiful wife and kids, who dreads one event each year: the Thanksgiving visit of his identical twin sister Jill (Sandler).

Jill’s neediness and passive-aggressiveness is maddening to Jack, turning his normally tranquil life upside down.

Jack and Jill is released 3rd February.

Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark Clips

Guillermo Del Toro is back in his producer’s hat later this year with new horror movie Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark.

The filmmaker has also penned the script with Matthew Robbins but Troy Nixey is in the director’s chair for the project.

Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark follows Sally (Bailee Madison), a young girl who moves to Rhode Island to live with her father (Guy Pearce) and his new girlfriend (Katie Holmes) in the 19th-century mansion they are restoring.

Having stumbled upon the mansion’s hidden basement, Sally starts hearing voices calling out from the bolted ash pit, imploring her to open it.

Sally obliges and unwittingly unleashes something so terrible, so unthinkable, that everyone’s life – hers most of all – is placed in immediate and grave danger.

Don’t Be Afraid Of the Dark is released 7th October. Take a look at some clips from the movie.

The movie is another project that has been produced by Guillermo Del Toro, following up Julia’s Eyes.

The Romantics Trailer

Over the course of one raucous night at a seaside wedding seven close friends, all members of a tight, eclectic college clique, reconvene to watch two of their own tie the knot.

Laura (Katie Holmes) is maid of honor to Lila (Anna Paquin), her golden girl best friend.

The two have long rivaled over the groom, Tom (Josh Duhamel). Friendships and alliances are tested and the love triangle comes to a head the night before the wedding, when the drunken friends frolic in the nearby surf and return to shore… without the groom.

Based on the heralded novel by producer, novelist, director Galt Niederhoffer, “The Romantics” is a Zeitgeist love story and generational comedy that breathes new life into the genre and recaptures the camaraderie of youth.

Directed by Galt Niederhoffer the movie brings together a great cast of Katie Holmes, Josh Duhamel, Anna Paquin, Elijah Wood, Malin Akerman and Adam Brody.

Take a look at the trailer for the movie:

Tuesday In Ruths View

So Danny Boyle is the toast of British filmmaking after winning the Oscar. he returned home this weekend to celebrate with his family with the award in a plastic bag…bless!

Poor Jake Gyllenhaal. Seriously, the poor guy just wants to buy some ladies underwear in peace, and not only does he get told he has to go and queue to pay, he also gets laughed at by the grannies doing their weekly shop at M&S. No wonder he legged it when he got spotted!

> Amy Winehouse is back in Britain after her two month holiday in Jamaica and as usual her journey home was marred with controversy when Amy got into a fight on the plane.

The beehived one hit a fellow passenger because she thought he was looking at her funny. Amy, knowing your usual choice of hairstyle and clothes we’ll be surprised if there was anyone on the plane not looking at you funny!

We are also putting together a Battle Of The Bands Competition in the North of the UK, if you know anyone who would like to get involved in any way… let us know.

Tuesday Early Headlines

Wow, what a day it’s been at FemaleFirst HQ! First of all, we bring you the new on who won what at the Grammy Awards 2009, although you probably know by now that Robert Plant won practially everything; who said that you have to be young to be cool?

However, Chris Brown and Rihanna didn’t make it to the Grammy’s as Chris was too busy (allegedly) giving his girlfriend a black eye and is now in prison. Uh-oh.

Also, possibly the best news ever came out at the Grammy’s as Mark, Tom and Travis, Blink 182, to anyone who isn’t ‘coo’ have announced they’re friends again and are ready to take on 2009 as a reformed group! Woo! But is it too little to late now?

It makes a nice change but it was British talent that was the toast of the Bafta Awards last night as Slumdog Millionaire stole the show and Kate Winslet kept her emotions in check.

Why oh why people feel they need to mess with a winning formula is beyond me, especially when its become such a huge success just the way it is. So to hear that Simon Cowell apparently plans to hire Kate Moss as a stylist for the next series of X Factor baffles me, especially after all the chopping and changes with the judging panel over the past few years too. We imagine their current stylist won’t be all thrilled to be turfed out for Mossy either…

Monday – Heads Up

Cheryl Cole wants a “romantic” Christmas for her self and husband Ashley Cole, and plans to lavish him with gifts.

Katie Holmes is obsessed with playgrounds, some people never grow up do they?

Elvis Presley is singing new duets from beyond the grave – with millions of fans who can log online to record a track with the late King… how good is that?

Saturday Slice

The biggest news I have heard all week is that the famous war of words between Blur and Oasis was in fact all just a sham. Talk about doing anything for publicity.

It’s official, Amy Winehouse has gone and got herself addicted to something else. Don’t panic though, she isn’t packing more crap into her veins; she’s opted for the far less dangerous addiction to a TV gameshow. So intead of having a white nose, she’ll have square eyes. Great!

I have to say that I admire how sensible Beyonce is by having a real and fake engagement ring. I don’t mean Jay-Z did a pretend proposal, no they are definitely married – but she just has a pretend one for when she’s on stage so it doesn’t fly off and smack some kid in the face (and end up on eBay the next day!)

Erm, it might not be all jolly in Cheryl Cole’s house this Christmas after a mental fan has vowed to kill himself and his family for her. Yeah, mate, that’s just the best Christmas present to give a girl you like… only you’ll be dead when she realises how much you love her. You didn’t think that one through did you mate?

My journalism ‘homeboy’ Jeremy Paxman is not exactly the flavour of the month with Estelle and Dizzee Rascal after he patronised Dizzee live on Newsnight. Watch your back Jezza, or you could have Dizzee’s crew on your case! Haha.
