Seth Rogen and Will Reiser on 50/50 and How Life Sometimes Needs a Rewrite

They say to write what you know. Unfortunately, in the case of screenwriter Will Reiser, what he knew was cancer. Six years ago, Reiser was diagnosed with cancer in his back, and — after surgery to remove the tumor — decided to handle the life-changing situation the only way he knew how: by finding the humor. Thus, 50/50 was born.

Elizabeth Banks Added to What to Expect When You’re Expecting

What to Expect When You’re Expecting wouldn’t be an ensemble rom-com in the vein of He’s Just Not That Into You and Valentine’s Day without a cast of dozens. As such: Elizabeth Banks is the latest actress to sign on, joining Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Brooklyn Decker and Anna Kendrick. Banks will star as a “baby-crazy” expectant mother and children’s book writer who has militant views on breast feeding. Sounds not too screechy at all. [ Coming Soon ]

Seth Rogen’s Untitled Cancer Flick No Longer Untitled

Monotone Canadian funnyman Seth Rogen’s cancer-based comedy is sporting a new name . Previously known as I’m With Cancer and then simply reported as Untitled Cancer Comedy, it’s now been dubbed Live With It. Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars as a 25 year-old who contracts a rare form of terminal cancer and Rogen stars as, I’m guessing, his braying boobish friend. They’re joined by a bevy of talented co-stars, including Anjelica Huston, Bryce Dallas Howard, Anna Kendrick and Philip Baker Hall. [ /Film ]
