...Chow Yun-fat left the cast of Red Cliff. Are you two still friends? Will you ever work together again? Cheo Hodari Coker,Studio City, Ca. Yeah, we're still friends. I still admire Chow Yun-fat as a great actor. Even though it didn't work out for Red Cliff, I'm looking forward to working with him again. We have a project called The Divide. It's about Chinese railroad workers in the United States. He's going to be one of the main cast [members]. I'm also looking forward to working with him again in Hong...
...actor, who died in January at 28 of an accidental prescription-drug overdose, is magnificent. Echoing the sly psychopathy and scary singsong voice of Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs (Hannibal Ledger!), Ledger carries in him the deranged threat of a punk star like Sid Vicious, whom he supposedly took as one of the models for his character. The Joker observes no rules, pursues no grand scheme; he's the terrorist as improv artist. Evil is his tenor sax, Armageddon his melody.

Wroblewski, who himself grew up on a farm in Wisconsin, initially wanted to be an actor. But he fell in love with tech when he got hold of an employer's TRS-80 Radio Shack computer in 1978, and wrote a tiny routine for it.

...story based on Mark Millar's 2003 miniseries for Top Cow comics, and adapted for the screen by Derek Haas, Michael Brandt and Chris Morgan, the white-collar drudge is Wesley Gibson (Scots actor James McAvoy), whose life is a conspiracy of indignities. In a job where he's badgered by his fat-cow boss, he reads a dense computer page and his brain isolates the words "why? "are? "you? "here?". His girlfriend is having sex with his best friend, and Wesley pays for the condoms his friend will use to betray him. Even his ATM sasses him. "Insufficient funds...
...long-simmering battle between the two unions escalated in March amid allegations that SAG was trying to poach actors from the soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful, which is under AFTRA jurisdiction. Now the fight has gotten to the hair-pulling stage: SAG is attempting to defeat AFTRA's contract vote, which would force the unions back to the bargaining table together. The latest weapon is dueling robo-calls: actor James Cromwell is calling AFTRA's members to support the contract. Sandra Oh is calling the 44,000 actors who are members of both unions to vote to defeat...
