Dave Franco... and a million other things

So I am watching Charlie St. Cloud the other night...

I had meant to watch it sooner, it was filmed here in Vancouver and the island, I actually met Zac Efron - see blog here, the bubble of pretty who floated towards us one summer day.... but I am watching the movie on demand and I see this kid is on it, he has a goofy grin and he looks JUST like James Franco, and I am thinking, how do I know this kid?

Then, last night, I go see Incredibly Loud and Extremely Close and then The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and there is a trailer for 21 Jump Street. I am super excited because, obviously, Channing Tatum is in it... but then, this kid pops up again with his big "James Franco-esque" grin. And I am thinking, "I need to imdb this kid"

So tonight as I am laying in bed I remember - and I look him up...

Sure enough, he IS a Franco.... James Franco's brother, Dave Franco, and I know where I have seen him before... Privileged as Zack... remember Privileged?

Joanna GarcĂ­a (Reba's tv daughter on Reba)

Well Joanna Farcia was the tutor for two rich kids... Rose & Sage... played by Lucy Hale (Pretty Little Liars - originally filmed in Vancouver ALSO, but relocated sadly, just like Vampire Diaries who filmed the pilot here then bailed to GA)

along with and Canadian Ashley Newbrough (who has't done anything since)

I thought for a second Sage had been played by Phoebe Tonkin (Secret Circle, also filmed in Vancouver) but I was wrong....

OOH side note (as if this whole blog isn't one already....) Phoebe Tonkin has been linked to Ed Westwick - omg rawr!!! (also Tom Felton, Angus McLaren and numerous other hotties - lucky gal)

ANYWAY.........

That is how I know that kid... he looks like James Franco, because he is his brother, I have seen him on Privileged and now... I should sleep LOL

Which is hotter? Hmmm...

Another connection I just made while blogging this... Michael Cassidy played Charlie on Privileged, was also on The OC and Smallville (filmed in Vancouver also) and saw him this week as a "red head" on "Are you there Chelsea?" That 70s Show's (DONNA - Laura Prepon) new sitcom....

AND Water for Elephants star Mark Povinelli is also on Are you there Chelsea

This is how my mind works at 2am.... linkinf fromone topic to another.... rant over

GOODNIGHT

Will Paul Wesley accept role of Paris in new Romeo & Juliet?


Upcoming Movies writes:

Romeo and Juliet role of Count Paris offered to Paul Wesley
"Vampire Diaries" lead actor has been offered the part of Paul Wesley opposite Douglas Booth who plays Romeo and Hailee Steinfeld as Juliet in the latest version of Shakespeare's classic, directed by Carlo Carlei.

Julian Fellowes wrote the script and is also producing alongside Amber Entertainment's Ileen Maisel and Lawrence Elman.

Production starts this September with a co-starring cast including Holly Hunter as Juliet's Nurse, Ed Westwick and Kodi Smit-McPhee as cousins of Romeo and Juliet - Tybalt and Benvolio respectively.

There have been many Romeo and Juliet adaptations, the most memorable of late was Romeo + Juliet helmed by Baz Luhrmann and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Claire Danes, John Leguizamo and Harold Perrineau.



P2P writes:


What do you think, is he a good fit? Should he take the part? He is 29 while Hailee is only 14, but remember the time period here. That big of an age gap between a suitor and a young girl wouldn’t be abnormal.



I think it would be amazing to have Ed Westwick and Paul Wesley in a movie together - R& J makes it even better... let's see if he takes the role *hopes*

Ed Westwick Cast as Tybalt in new Romeo & Juliet


First Showing shares:

Ed Westwick is set to play Tybalt in a new adaptation of Romeo and Juliet from Italian director Carlo Carlei which already has True Grit star Hailee Steinfeld as the titular female lead in the tragic romance. For those who haven’t dealt with the Shakespeare play in school, or seen any of the various film versions, Tybalt is Lady Capulet’s nephew and the arch rival of Romeo, which does not bode well for him.

This pleases me.... I have always loved Romeo & Juliet, in fact, as a teen my friend and I went to the theatre numerous times to see the Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes version... then when it went to the cheap theatre we literally went after school every chance we got (even DURING school hours tee hee bad Mandy!)


I really am a fan of Shakespeare as a whole and I love when they remake his stuff. What I really liked about Baz Luhrmann's 1996 version was that it was modern music, sets, props, but the old language... It captivated me as a rebellious teen and stuck with me. I am an English Literature geek and majored in it at University.... Casting young, hip actors will revive the classic tale and I can't wait to see who they choose for young Romeo opposite Hailee Steinfeld as Juliet.


Ed Westwick as Tybalt will be awesome.

Ashley Greene attends Art Showing hosted by Ed Westwick



From RadarOnline.com:
Just after Ashley Greene got back from wrapping Eclipse, she attended an art showing, titled Heartstrings, which featured the work of Todd Ciurcio. The exhibition was hosted by Ed Westwick of Gossip Girl. Ashley sure knows how to keep herself busy, and always beautiful!

This girl *is* beautiful and *does* keep busy.... I mean she was hanging with Ian Somerhalder back in April in Vancouver, spotted with Chase Crawford recently, Co-Stars such as Kellan Lutz and her hang out regularily (like the U2 concert last night in L.A.) and now Ed Westwick... no I am not saying she is banging them all, nor do I imply she gets around that way - just saying she certainly hangs with some HOT Hollywood men... rawr!
