The Very Busy Chris Pratt on Preparing for Moneyball, Goofing in What’s Your Number? and Ten Year

Television watchers have been hip to Chris Pratt since he first appeared on The WB series Everwood in 2002. Other supporting roles in television ( The O.C. ) and film ( Bride Wars ) followed, but the Minnesota-born star really came into his own with his winning turn as Andy Dwyer, pratfaller extraordinaire-cum-romantic lead, on the beloved NBC series Parks & Recreation . Now, with three films coming out this fall, including two next month, Pratt is poised to tackle the big screen with a fervor his Parks & Rec alter ego would usually reserve for the Meat Tornado .

The New Trailer for Moneyball Changes the Game, For Good and Bad

Let’s get this out of the way up front: the latest trailer for Moneyball looks like the previous trailer for the film. It makes what many believed to be an unadaptable book into something dramatic, funny and altogether thrilling. At least in trailer form. (It helps that Brad Pitt is putting on the “full Redford” in the campaign; dude looks like Roy Hobbs’s son.) That said, there is a quibble — at least from a baseball standpoint.

Steven Soderbergh Apparently Not Retiring After All

This just in from the reportedly outgoing Oscar-winner Steven Soderbergh, answering questions at Relativity Media’s panel at Comic-Con : “Matt Damon is apparently as discreet as a 14-year-old girl. I had this drunk conversation with him while shooting Contagion and four days later, I read about it in the paper. And he read it verbatim. Nobody in this economy wants to hear about someone quitting a good job. That kind of got blown out of proportion. And that’s Matt’s fault.” Aha! Cue “Blamin’ Damon” headlines in 3… 2… (And check out all of Movieline’s Comic-Con 2011 coverage here .)

Which of These Three Actors Makes the Most Believable Movie Blogger?

Today in news that doesn’t relate to Comic-Con: Deadline reports that Steve Carell, Jack Black and Nicolas Cage are in various stages of negotiations to star in Frank Or Francis for director and writer Charlie Kaufman. Details on the film are slim, but when it was first announced back in March , Frank Or Francis reportedly dealt with a filmmaker and the blogger “who takes delight in berating his cinematic talent.” (It sorta sounds like that movie Pitchfork that Jonah Hill was rumored for ; bloggers, they’re not just for blogs anymore!) Assuming Carell, Black and Cage sign on for Frank Or Francis — and assuming at least two of them are in talks for the lead roles — this news raises a fairly legitimate question: who among them is believable as a blogger?

If you wind the clock back to mid-2009 and took a look at /Film you’d find the film Moneyball as one of our most-covered topics. The film took an unusual path to the screen when Steven Soderbergh’s version of the movie was canned [1] at the last minute by Sony chief Amy Pascal. The movie was shopped to other studios [2], which passed on it, and Soderbergh soon left the project [3].
