Sometimes There’s So Much Booty In the World, It Feels Like Kevin Spacey Can’t Take It

4:15AM Defamer Hollywood | As Esquire once famously teased, “Kevin Spacey Has a Secret,” and now, finally, that secret has come to light: he’s a good samaritan! Already notorious for a well-intentioned, late-night dog walking that turned ugly in the most homoerotic way, the actor was snapped this weekend in Croatia enacting a “pay it forward” so unorthodox that it would make even a newly R-rated Haley Joel Osment blush.

Yoda-Like Kevin Spacey Praises Quick-Learning ‘Jedi Knight Harvey Weinstein’

4:10AM Defamer Hollywood | Relief swept Defamer HQ today as we can finally close the book on the long, tortured saga of Fanboys, the terminal-cancer by-way-of-Skywalker-Ranch buddy comedy whose scissoring (and presumed dumping) at the hands of Harvey Weinstein provoked such authentic fanboy outrage last spring. But now a press release from Darth Weinstein himself announced that Fanboys will receive a second premiere this week at San Diego ComicCon — now with fans’ “extensive feedback” added to the final cut.

Kate Bosworth: ‘No Sober Sex Scenes For Me, Thankyouverymuch’

9:50AM Molly Friedman | This may shock many of you, but we’ve been hearing rumours for years that giving girls a few drinks can make them feel more romantically adventurous. And, according to People, this very rumour was put into action when 21 star Kate Bosworth shot her love scenes with co-star Jim Sturgess. As she recently admitted at a New York screening, “We were both so drunk…Jim and I became such good friends, we decided to have a couple of drinks, loosen up and go for it.” Which got us thinking: seeing as how Kate’s been required to do the whole sex scene thing with quite a few actors over they years, what other combination of sedatives, drugs and drinks must she have had to pop and sip in order to get down and dirty with the likes of James Van Der Beek and (gulp) Kevin Spacey?

Trade Roundup: Denzel Washington Is The New Walter Matthau

4:00AM Defamer Hollywood | Hollywood Out of Ideas, Unoriginality Is Easy As 1-2-3 Edition: Denzel Washington will star in director Tony Scott’s sure-to-be incomprehensible remake of The Taking of Pelham 1,2,3, assuming a role originally played by Walter Matthau and not-so-memorably reprised by Edward James Olmos in a 1998 made-for-TV version. [Variety] · NBC throws money at big-name screenwriters for its Heroes: Origins spinoff, signing up X2/Superman Returns co-writer Michael Dougherty and Hostel’s Eli Roth to script episodes tackling the backstory issues of the hit series’ characters, such as why Ali Larter’s evil reflection is so angry all the time. [THR] · Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac will star in the Dimension comedy Soul Men, a project that regrettably is in no way related to the classic, similarly titled C. Thomas Howell/Rae Dawn Chong self-tanning farce of 1986. [Variety] · The Family Guy’s Very Special Star Wars-Themed Episode posts a “strong” performance in its ultimately doomed Nielsen attack against NBC’s Sunday Night Football. [THR] Kevin Spacey will return to TV (well, sort of) after a 16-year hiatus, starring in HBO’s Recount as the Gore campaign chief of staff who challenged the disputed balloting in Florida during the 2000 presidential election.
