Paris Hilton Gets a Job: Trade Roughage, 07/30/07
Reading 'The Art of War' apparently paid off.
Sun Tzu-fan Paris Hilton will star (!) as Paul Sorvino’s daughter (!!) in Repo! The Genetic Opera, a “musical thriller” from Saw III director Darren Lynn Bousman (!!!). Sometimes the jokes just write themselves, and in this case, I can’t top Variety’s logline: “Hilton will sing in a futuristic thriller framed around musical numbers that range from opera to rock. The setting is 2056, when a plague nearly destroys the human race and survival is dependent upon being able to finance a pricey organ transplant.”- Speaking of celebutantes that were thought to be unemployable, a Reuters story picked up by The Hollywood Reporter warns us not to write off Lindsay Lohan, because “no actor is uninsurable.” An expert quoted in the story says something along the lines of, “I got insurance for Robert Downey Jr. I could insure Lindsay Lohan barefoot with somebody else’s coke in my pants.”
- Johnny Depp is re-attached to The Rum Diary, an adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s novel, now to be directed by Bruce Robinson. But don’t put a lot of weight in this announcement: the project has fallen in and out of development since 2000, and at one point, Benicio Del Toro was on board to direct.
