Reese Witherspoon Postpones Participation in Unofficial ‘Joe Versus the Volcano’ Remake
4:37AM Kyle Buchanan | First, the good news: Reese Witherspoon has confirmed the postponement of the Cameron Crowe film that would have paired her with Ben Stiller in a supernatural romantic comedy about volcanoes and human sacrifice. More »An Open Letter to Cameron Crowe, Re: His New Volcano Comedy
9:00AM Kyle Buchanan | Yesterday, CHUD reminded of us one of the most outlandish projects percolating in Hollywood: the next film from director Cameron Crowe (Almost Famous), an untitled, semi-supernatural comedy set to star Ben Stiller and Reese Witherspoon. The former plays a disgraced weapons analyst who must journey to Hawaii to convince the islanders to put up with a new spy satellite — something they’re perfectly willing to do if Stiller will secure a human sacrifice for their volcano. Along the way, the analyst has romantic entanglements with various women, including one played by Witherspoon. More »Why Can’t Reese Witherspoon Get First Billing?
3:57AM Defamer Hollywood | Correct us if we’re wrong, but didn’t Reese Witherspoon, y’know, win an Oscar just a few years ago? We’re pretty sure she did, but you’d never know it from this poster for Four Christmases, the upcoming comedy she stars in with Vince Vaughn. Despite the fact that Vaughn fired UTA and his manager after the star vehicle Fred Claus opened to less than his first $20 million paycheck, the poster still gives him first billing over the Oscar-winning, A-list Witherspoon (and for another Christmas movie, no less!). To be fair, Witherspoon’s last film Rendition was a box-office bust, but she wasn’t top-billed on that, either: new beau Jake Gyllenhaal was, despite the fact that he’s not yet proven himself as a box office draw. After winning the industry’s highest award and proving her ability to single-handedly open a comedy with films like Legally Blonde and Sweet Home Alabama, what more does Witherspoon have to do to be called first in the billing block?

8:55AM Defamer Hollywood | Before we conclude the Defamer Day of Beefcake, we’d like to make it a threefer: hence this picture of shirtless, Middle Eastern megastar Jake Gyllenhaal squiring girlfriend Reese Witherspoon on the set of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time — which we last learned would be pushed back a full year to Memorial Day, 2010. Now that shirtless photos have emerged of Gyllenhaal’s newly buffed-up body, we think that news will be greeted with the delayed, heart-rending cries of protest it deserves. Says Just Jared:
Three Reasons Why We Won’t Be Watching MTV’s ‘Legally Blonde’ Reality Show
8:30AM Molly Friedman | As Variety reports today, MTV just greenlit eight episodes of a new reality show called The Search For Elle Woods, in which ten blonde hopefuls will compete to play the lead in Broadway’s version of Legally Blonde. Reminiscent of NBC’s You’re The One That I Want, that high-kicking monstrosity in which amateur dancing, singing, crying, laughing Great White Way hopefuls danced their little hearts out for the chance to star in last year’s revival of Grease, this one will thankfully rely on judges instead of America to determine the winner. But after hearing the details behind MTV’s production plans, our initial sense is that the summer series will be utterly unwatchable. Three reasons why this show should not go on, after the jump:
