Wahlbergs new role

Mark Wahlberg is on a role. After his success with "The Departed" and his newly released film "The Shooter" he is getting ready to take on another film role. He has been set to star in the new M. Night Shyamalan thriller "The Happening." The film is about a man who runs with his family after a natural crisis threatens to end the world. This movie is set to start filming in August in Philadelphia where Shyamalan films most of his movies. It is set to be released on the perfect day of June 13,2008 which is Friday the 13th. Everyone has misconceptions of Friday the 13th and Shyamalan thought it would be the perfect day to release his new thriller.

"The Fighter"

Matt Damon and Mark Wahlberg are teaming up again. They were in talks to co-star together in "The Fighter" the story of "Irish" Micky Ward (Wahlberg) who won the world lightweight title with the help of his half brother "Dicky" (Damon) who became his trainer. The film was put on the back burner for a little while but now is in the works as long as Damon and Wahlberg accept the rewrite that is being done by Paul Attanasio. If all goes well Darren Aronofsky will direct and the film will start shooting this summer in Massachusetts.

Scorsese and Wahlberg

Martin Scorcese and Mark Wahlberg are teaming up again. They are going to do a series about the development of Atlantic City for HBO called "Boardwalk." They will produce the series together along with Steven Levinson. Wahlberg and Levinson have previously worked together on the hit HBO series "Entourage." This new series is based on the book "Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption of Atlantic City." It is a story that explains the stages that made Atlantic City the place it is today. With Martin Scorsese and Mark Wahlberg producing this show together it is bound to be one of the greatest shows on television, look at the success of "Entourage."

Best and Worst Dressed

The 79th annual Academy Awards are starting soon. With the Red Carpet buzzing with excitement here is my take on this evenings best and worst dressed celebrity. Beyonce, in her mint green Armani jeweled gown looked absolutely stunning. she got everything right the perfect hair, jewelry and shoes. People said she keeps replicating the same "Dreamgirl" look but if it works for her she should stick with it. Anne Miran wowed the crowd in her golden almost vintage looking gown. She is definitely giving young Hollywood a run for their money. Kate Blanchet wearing a stunning silver gown by Armani Prive, She looked like a goddess the only thing I thought did not look right was her hair, it did not go with her dress. Reese Witherspoon looked amazing as always. she was floating in her black strapless drees. Being single definitely works for her, she has such a glow about her that makes her look extra amazing.

The men stood out as well. I have to say they are all looking classic and well groomed. To my surprise Sacha Baron Cohen was one of my favorites, after seeing him all crazy in scruffy in "Borat" it is nice to see how well he cleans up. My other best dress males were Leonardo Dicaprio 9of course,) Forrest Whitaker, he looked so handsome but yet humble in his tuxedo. Mark Wahlberg looked amazing in his classically tailored tuxedo. The men did very well this year, I don't really have any votes for worst dress males, but these four stood out for me.

Know for the bad news, my vote for the worst dressed females. Kirsten Dunst, Ann Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Meryl Streep. Kirsten Dunst looked washed out and to old in her vintage light blue dress. The feathers on the bottom just topped a horrible look for her. Gwyneth Paltrow looked like a mermaid in her pink Zac Posen dress. Everything from the dress to the hair just did not work for her tonight. Meryl Streep was wonderful in" he Devil Wears Prada" she looked amazing and gave an amazing performance, she should have took some cues from her role as Miranda. Her long baggy black dress with her long orange necklaces were horrible. She looked like she got up went through her closet and put on the first thing she could find. It must be something with "The Devil Wears Prada" Ann Hathaway did not live up to the expectation either. Her white lace dress with black overlay that looks like she is wearing her bra on the outside of he dress, just did not work for me. It is such a shame, she is such a beautiful girl everything else worked but the dress was awful! For more of the celebrities walking the Red carpet, click here.

Matt Damon and Mark Wahlberg set to reunite again? The word is the two are going to co-star in a Paramount Pictures film called "The Fighter" It is about two brothers growing up on the rough streets of Lowell Massachusetts. (It kind of sounds like a true story of Wahlberg's childhood) and the other brother going on to win the London boxing World championship. Both worked well together in The Departed, lets see if these two will have have the same chemistry in The Fighter.
