Crazy Heart writer-director Scott Cooper isn’t holding back with the follow-up to his double-Oscar-winning filmmaking debut, dialing in Christian Bale, Casey Affleck, Sam Shepard and Zoe Saldana (not to mention producers including Leonardo DiCaprio, Ridley Scott and Relativity Media mogul Ryan Kavanaugh) for the family crime-and-redemption drama Out of the Furnace . Read on for full details just over the transom from Relativity; adjust your Oscar 2013 pools accordingly. ================= (Beverly Hills, Calif.) April 5, 2012 – Relativity Media has closed deals with Oscar®-winner Christian Bale ( The Fighter ), Oscar®-nominated Casey Affleck ( The Assassination of Jesse James By the Coward Robert Ford ), Zoe Saldana ( Avatar ) and Oscar®-nominated Sam Shepard ( Safe House ) to star as the lead roles in the upcoming gripping and gritty drama currently titled Out of the Furnace , written and directed by the critically-acclaimed Scott Cooper ( Crazy Heart ), it was announced today by Relativity’s Co-President, Tucker Tooley. Bale will star as older brother Russell Baze in the film alongside Affleck who will play the role of younger brother Rodney Baze Jr. Saldana has also been cast as Bale’s love interest Lena Warren and Shepard will play Red, Russell and Rodney Baze’s uncle. Production is set to begin in Braddock, Pennsylvania later this month. Relativity Media will release the film theatrically in the U.S. Red Granite, the Los Angeles based film production, finance and international sales company has acquired foreign rights outside of the U.S. and will handle international sales. Red Granite International President Danny Dimbort and Co-President Christian Mercuri will begin shopping the film to buyers in Cannes next month. In making the announcement, Tooley said, “This is a meaty script with characters as strong as they are complex, and we needed powerhouse actors who complement the story. Christian, Casey, Zoe and Sam each approach everything they do with heart and conviction. We can’t wait to see what each of them brings to this film,” says Tooley. The film is a drama about fate, circumstance, and redemption. Russell and his younger brother live in the economically depressed Rust Belt, and have always dreamed of escaping and finding better lives. But when a cruel twist of fate lands Russell in prison, his brother is lured into one of the most violent and ruthless crime rings in the Northeast – a mistake that will almost cost him everything. Once released, Russell must choose between his own freedom, or risk it all to seek justice for his brother. Producing are Appian Way’s Leonardo DiCaprio ( J. Edgar ) and Jennifer Killoran ( The Ides of March ) alongside Scott Free’s Ridley Scott ( The Grey ), Tony Scott ( Man on Fire ) and Michael Costigan ( American Gangster ) as well as Relativity’s CEO Ryan Kavanaugh ( The Fighter ). Bale and Affleck were both represented by WME in the deals. Saldana and Shepard were both represented by ICM in the deals. ###

Russell Brand is doing well, thank you. Returning to his roots – bachelorhood, plus standup comedy – is the ideal way to move on from his marriage to Katy Perry , which ended this winter after 14 months. To hear Russell tell it, he has no reason not to be well. Waxing philosophical about life, he says, “You don’t need to brush it off if you don’t get it on you in the first place,” he says, not specifically defining what “it” is. The 36-year-old sounds downright zen in adding, “I don’t have to let anything go. I don’t hold on to anything negative. It’s the same as zero-ness.” Asked if that’s part of his yoga philosophy , Brand notes. “It’s not about letting it go,” he says. “You can’t let go of something you don’t hold, you know. It’s meaningless, [and] much of our world is predicated on meaninglessness. And I just don’t do that anymore.” As for his upcoming late-night show, which is due later this year on FX? “It’s a standup comedy show. We’ll talk about current affairs and analyze and deconstruct the media of the day and approach news from a humanitarian and spiritual angle, whilst keeping it simultaneously and continuously humorous.” It will be Brand’s first major foray into American TV, though he’s done guest spots and hosting gigs such as the MTV Video Music Awards. Two weeks ago, Brand also made news when he was arrested in New Orleans for allegedly grabbing a photographer’s iPhone and tossing it. That, too, he says, is “meaningless to me. It’s like it never happened. It’s meaningless.” And reports that he’s had a “Katy Perry” tattoo removed? “Nope,” he says. “Never had a tattoo removed. Never happened.” This concludes our Russell Brand update. It’s been a good one!

Jason Russell’s family has released statement on the Kony 2012 creator following his unbelievable naked meltdown Friday, claiming he was diagnosed with “brief reactive psychosis” after the fact and will remain hospitalized for several weeks. The statement by Russell’s family reads: “We would, again, like to make it clear that the incident was in no way the result of drugs or alcohol in his body. The preliminary diagnosis he received is called brief reactive psychosis, an acute state brought on by extreme exhaustion, stress and dehydration .” Jason Russell Naked Meltdown Video “Though new to us, doctors say it is a common experience given the mental, emotional and physical shock his body has gone through in the last two weeks.” “Even for us, it’s hard to understand the sudden transition from relative anonymity to worldwide attention – both raves and ridicules, in a matter of days.” Russell, whose Kony 2012 became a remarkable viral hit this month, was ranting maniacally and slapping the pavement , fully nude, before cops detained him. He was placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold. Jason Russell Slapping Pavement Jason’s family insists Russell “will get better”, saying, “He is, and will remain, under hospital care for a number of weeks; and after that, the recovery process could take months before he is fully able to step back into his role with Invisible Children.” “During that time, we will focus not on a speedy recovery, but a thorough one.” We wish him a speedy and thorough recovery.

This viral video can’t be staged … and yet it can’t not be. How else can you explain the fact that this downtrodden-sounding, scraggly apartment dweller just happened to turn on his webcam to lament that his roommates have been (allegedly) stealing his food, only to unknowingly capture the real culprit in the act? Also, why videotape this at all? Who are you talking to? Questions for another day. Regardless, this is a classic: Guy Complains About Roommates’ Food Theft

The National Enquirer is not the only tabloid that won’t let Whitney Houston rest in peace . According to The London Sun , the late singer carried on an affair with Jermaine Jackson – while the latter was married – in the early 1980s. The newspaper, which does not cite a single source, even claims Whitney’s hit single “Saving All My Love for You” was based on her secret romance with MJ’s brother. A few stolen moments is all that we share/You’ve got your family and they need you there. Though I’ve tried to resist being last on your list/But no other man’s gonna do/So I’m saving all my love for you , Houston croons on that track. The tabloid goes on to say that Michael Jackson was aware of the relationship and did not approve. It also says Jermaine was so broken up over Houston’s death that he could not attend her funeral. Late last month, Jermaine offered a few words of wisdom to Whitney’s daughter, Bobbi Kristina. [Photos: WENN.com]

Despite some lyrics that make clear reference to a relationship falling apart and love gone wrong, Katy Perry insists “Part of Me” isn’t about Russell Brand. “I wrote it two years ago, which is funny because everybody is like ‘God, it sounds so current,'” the pop star, 27, told MTV News about her latest single. The song is full of jabs – “You can keep the diamond ring/It don’t mean nothing anyway” etc. – leading many to conclude that it was a dig at Russell . Not the case, says Perry, whose split with Brand remains amicable. Katy and Russell wed in October 2010 and split in December 2011 . “Some people that I work with were like, ‘Just say you wrote it a couple of weeks ago,'” she says. “I’m like, ‘I’m not a d—, I’m going to tell the truth.'” “I wrote it two years ago when I was writing and recording Teenage Dream , [but] it didn’t feel right on the record. It’s not about [Russell Brand].” Still, Perry admits that the timing is eerie in a sense. “Sometimes I’m like, ‘Am I living in The Truman Show?’ It just feels like sometimes I’m caught in this movie where my life is paralleling my music!” “It seems very serendipitous, but, as un-fun as it sounds, I prepare everything. I’m overly prepared and kind of a control freak in the best of ways.” [Photo: WENN.com]
