Solitary Man, Girlfriend Experience Duo to Adapt Neil Strauss’s Pick-up Tome The Game

According to The Hollywood Reporter, MGM will team up with A Solitary Man writer Brian Koppelman and director David Levien to bring Neil Strauss’s dating how-to book The Game to the big screen. Others have tried before to make Strauss’s best-selling pick-up tome into a film, but maybe Koppelman and Levien are the right guys for the job; after all, they gave Michael Douglas a great vehicle playing a skeevy womanizer in A Solitary Man . Maybe they can do the same for magician-turned-pick-up artist Mystery?

Could the James Bond Delay Actually Be a Good Thing?

We’ve been told over and over for decades that James Bond will return, and implicit in that promise is that in the in-between time won’t be long at all. The turmoil at MGM has changed all that, however; not only has the next Bond film lost Sam Mendes as the director , but now, according to an irate Harry Knowles , development on the movie has stopped completely (not to be confused with when it stopped indefinitely ). Is that really so bad, though?

Will Sir Ian McKellan Still Appear in The Hobbit?

Considering The Hobbit doesn’t really have a studio or a director at this point — though Brett Ratner is still available — it does seem a bit silly that there are actually actors still attached to this thing — a fact Sir Ian McKellan surely realized. Speaking with New Zealand’s Good Morning , the acclaimed thespian — who would appear as Gandolf the Grey in the Lord of the Rings two-part prequel — pretty much threw cold water onto the heads of OneRing.net message board posters throughout Middle Earth.

Peter Jackson in Negotiations to Direct The Hobbit

It looks like the MGM and Warner Bros. strategy of contacting tonally inappropriate directors to helm The Hobbit franchise had paid off better than any strategy associated with MGM in the last year. According to Movieline sister site Deadline, Peter Jackson is fully immersed in negotiations that would place him behind the camera for the two Hobbit films. Feign your total surprise… now.
