One 'source' told a reporter, 'Mischa hopes to work with Jake one day.' Well, maybe she's not only an extremely lucky Londoner (yes, that was a surprise to me too), she may be a seer because there's a rumour that Mischa is to play the woman in the middle of Brothers Jake and Tobey Maguire.
According to a poster on IMDB (and no doubt we all have our own assessment of the accuracy of IMDB reports), 'she was at the toronto film festival and she was talking about her new movie closing the ring and than she said her next movies were a movie called finding tatu where she plays a lesbian and another movie with bruce willis ( cant remember the name) and than she said she looking foward to be filming the new movie brothers with tobey and jake this november. She said she will be playing a mother and a wife. Her husband goes to war. She thinks her husband is dead and she falls in love with his brother. or something like that.'
Whenever I post a photograph of an actress, I pick a picture of the wrong actress (with the notable exception of Maggie). I trust that I am correct here with these pictures of Mischa in London from Just Jared. I'm detecting a London theme tonight...
Rome Film Festival
Another day, another festival. This time it's Rome, which was set up last year to rival Venice. Rendition will be an attraction at the festival next month.
Includes pictures from IHJ.
Gawd! I hate being first. (looks around...dashes out...then slooooowly sidles back in...). OK. This is one rumor I sincerely hope is false. And as Forrest Gump said: "That's all I have to say about that..." (I have my fingers, toes and eyes crossed!) WDW! I remember the "Mischa incident" at the '06 BAFTAs LOL! Wasn't she giggling to someone about having enough nerve to go over and ask him for his phone number? And so finally she went up and asked him. And she suggested they get together? Like "Lunch " ...or something? I remember, bcz she was very agressive. I thought he very politely blew her off, except she didn't realize it? I know for sure this was when she was still "dating" Cisco Adler. Or maybe it was still Brandon Davis. I remember, bcz, I was sort of appalled. She was definitely part of the Paris Hilton Set at the time. She hasn't done much since the O.C. And she's very young.
ReplyDeleteHi Bobbyanna - don't worry about being first - I'm always first - you get used to it :)
ReplyDeleteI have to say - I bet Jake ran a mile - but in an extremely polite manner! I can honestly say that, apart from the 'Bafta incident' I know nothing about her.
Have to say here that I bought a couple of Arcade Fire albums today and I love them!!
woof woof waiting for WDW so I can have my eve. tipple - but is she gone out to dine? no I think she is returned. thank you bobbyanna I hate to be first, also, but I am always at the door with my tail wagging around about when WDW is due home.
ReplyDelete"brothers" ia a wonderful story. Connie Nielson was radiant as the wife/mother - I think this might be the most difficult role to cast! and perhaps the most crucial. (hoping this is all going to happen. . . ) in the meantime. . .
discussion with B&N magazine person as to when they will be unpacking the Interview tomorrow - can you believe they're only getting three copies?
glad to hear its gorgeous, GetReal.
I figured.
Well. I was an early fan of the O.C. It was a perfect case of life imitating art. When I read about the 'BAFTA incident' I was aware of her 'lifestyle' so I got all "Momma Bear." At the thought of Poor Jake falling into the clutches of the Paris Hilton set, I became physically ill! LOL! Of course, now, I find my reaction laughable, on Jake's end. I mean. He SO wouldn't go there !!! But as I think of Brothers, and remember Connie Nielsen's outstanding performance, I realize how, very often, someone's reach can exceed their grasp.
ReplyDeleteHope you will enjoy your music! I think I will watch Zodiac on pay per view for the third night in a row. (Lisa said hello!)
Hey Positively Pia! *) We got fish and chips in, in the end! Now we're drinking the wine and I'll have to sign off for the evening soon. I love to see you in the evening too - thanks for waiting for me and putting up with my erratic hours now the commute is on again.
ReplyDeleteOnly 3 magazines! With that cover? Are they crazy?
Hey Bobbyanna - I agree that I can never see Jake as part of that set. Oh my :\ But as you say who knows what people can achieve - and whoever gets this crucial third role - they may surprise.
Please say hello to Lisa for me too and a hug to you both :)
She hasn't done much since the O.C.

I don't know anything about Mischa Barton but she obviously has great taste in men and she's a Londoner,so if someone has to get up close and personal with Jake, it might as well be her.*sigh* It should have been me... Can she actually act though? I've never watched The OC. then again, she's going to be playing a woman seduced by dark and dangerous roguish bad boy Jake, how much acting is she going to need to do?:D
ReplyDeleteI can't help wondering if she actually called Jake after she got his number. Cos I never heard any rumours about them, and if Jake forgot to call her back, or even *gasp* gave her the wrong number, it could be ...awkward!
So Rendition is premiering in the US, the UK and Rome all at once...The question is, where will Jake be? I'm sure you can guess what my preference would be;) Mind you, with his recent NY-Texas-LA exploits wouldn't suprise me if he turned up in all three places;D
well one of the important plot points of the STORY
ReplyDeleteSPOILER ALERT
is that she not seduced. now, anyone who can pull THIS ONE OFF
if Jake is playing the bro, good night and good luck.
Indeed, some people have all the luck, don't they?
ReplyDeleteif Jake forgot to call her back, or even *gasp* gave her the wrong number, it could be ...awkward!
Oh dear, that would simply be terrible, but I can't picture Jake being that rude or insensitive. He's such a sweetie.
Mind you, with his recent NY-Texas-LA exploits wouldn't suprise me if he turned up in all three places;D
I can only assume that Jake has cloned himself to keep up with such a schedule. If so, I call dibs on one of them.
Thank you, Pia :) I haven't read anything about Brothers since it was first repoted about Jake being in it, so all I remember is something about Jake becoming close to the brother's wife and I just let my imagination do the rest. And yes, whoever can pull off NOT being seduced by Jake better make space on their mantle piece for a little gold statue!
ReplyDeleteI can only assume that Jake has cloned himself to keep up with such a schedule. If so, I call dibs on one of them.
See, now didn't I say that's what Jake was doing when he was papped at the medical centre? Everyone laughed at me and said I was crazy but it looks like I was on to something;D
Oh Lord,I'm having horrible flashbacks! All this talk of Ms. Barton is bringing back the Bafta Incident,which caused me Post- traumatic stress at the time. Please let this be one of those casting rumours that's got it all wrong! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI just read about the Rome Film Festival on Gyllenhaalics and thought perhaps I should e-mail WDW with the news. I decided to check here first. Oh all-seeing Blog-mistress,how do you do it,always first with important Jake-news?
That should mean that you'll know in plenty of time which of the three simultaneous premieres Jake will be attending,WDW. Packing our case now, are we? ;-D
Most random thought ever:
ReplyDeleteJake needs a bigger, better picture on Wikipedia. Of course, his page is locked right now, but still...that man deserves his own Wiki.
And yes, whoever can pull off NOT being seduced by Jake better make space on their mantle piece for a little gold statue!
Anyone who can do the above, I will bake you a cake. How can you NOT swoon when confronted by the Jakester?! Simply. Impossible.
I know nothing about Ms. Barton so I'll leave that. You are amazing, WDW, finding out all this stuff.
ReplyDeleteJake's page on Wikipedia is about 4 times the length it was the last time I was there. That must mean something. And the picture is better, too.
Mischa yuck. Like freshly churned white vinegar.
ReplyDeleteIs Jake going to the Rome film festival? Will we get new pix of him there?
Sadly, the only acting I've ever seen Mischa Barton do was as a 12 year old 'actress' in one of my favorite movies, Notting Hill.
ReplyDeletehttp://blog3.fc2.com/t/tempest/file/MBarton_NottingHill.gif
And I still think of her as that 12 year old actress.
Wow...Jake (hopefully)in Italy?
ReplyDeleteAnyone coming?? :) :) :)
BTW this is the Fest. Site (English version);consider me at your complete disposal for transalations, informations bla bla bla...
http://www.romacinemafest.org/romacinemafest/home.php
Rendition is scheduled for the 21st of October.:)
Mischa? No!!! She's an expensive coat hanger with a spray tan!
ReplyDeleteMorning everyone :) I missed you all last night. Thanks for the great comments and all the info on Mischa (I don't think I've seen a single thing she's been in except Notting Hill) and the Rome Film Festival.
ReplyDeleteThanks Xenia for the date for that and for the translation help offer. I'll be back to you on that!
I agree with you all that anyone who can act not being seduced by Jake should be up for an Oscar in my book. Maybe they have to try desensitisation therapy ;) Hmmm
So Rendition weeks is going to be a busy week, no clear sign of what Jake will be doing for it, or indeed which continent he'll be on. So everyone keep your ears and eyes peeled (ooough not a pleasant image) :)
Some great one-liners again, thanks! Have a good Friday :D
Oh btw - thanks for the info Fourplay and Beckela about Jake's Wiki page.
ReplyDeleteI was traumatised by the incident too, Nadine - if only we'd known, we could have comforted each other :D
ReplyDeleteMischa was 12 in Notting Hill?
*newly traumatised*
I was about to scoop WDW with Rome but I shoulda known better :D
LOL pia and all you funnies above :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I just noticed that in that pic of Heath and Jake, Jake is drinking red wine! I'm practically ovulating!
ReplyDeleteEwwwwwww!
ReplyDeleteHi everyone :D Some great lines here - bmg you crack me up! Jake is drinking red wine! and he's not the only one - I have my Californian Merlot on the go. I've been tempted to do a Jake and wine post...
ReplyDeleteOh pia Nadine and Anouska - I had no idea about all of this Mischa turmoil going on... I'm sorry to laugh at it but it's so funny...!
Watching Jamie Foxx on JR :D
Hey Anouska :-) At least if the unthinkable happens and little Miss Barton does get the part in "Brothers",we now know we can come together with several of our sisters here for some group therapy ;-)
