Jessica Chastain -- the "It" actress who's likely to get an Oscar nomination for one of her umpteen-diddly movies of 2011, including 'The Help' and 'The Tree of Life' -- is now prepping to conquer Broadway. She'll make her Broadway debut this fall in 'The Heiress.' It's a role that won an Oscar for Olivia de Havilland back in 1950. Since she'll be playing an unattractive 19th-century heiress, she'll likely be "uglified" with heavy eyebrows, as was de Havilland.
"Script issues" are supposedly to blame for Matt Damon's decision not to direct his first film, although he's reportedly still game to star in the film, according to Vulture. Damon's decision to forego directing duties on the untitled movie -- which is the brainchild of John Krasinski and Dave Eggers -- is all the stranger since Damon co-wrote the script with Eggers (of McSweeney's fame).
Michael Caine is an integral part of Christopher Nolan's Batman films as fatherly butler Alfred, but the Oscar-winning actor says -- gasp! -- that those movies aren't really all that interesting to make. On a set visit to his new film, 'Mr. Morgan's Last Love,' Caine told THR, "Batman has very good actors in it, but it's all about the special effects. A film like this is about the people. It's more interesting as an actor."
Benedict Cumberbatch -- you know, that tall, angular fellow in 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy,' 'War Horse' and the BBC's Sherlock Holmes -- says he often gets typecast as rich and upper-class. Cumberbatch told Radio Times, "Being a posh actor in England, you can't escape class-typing, from whatever side you look at it. I realized quite early on that, although I wasn't trying to make a career specialty of it, I was playing slightly asexual, sociopathic intellectuals." That must be why, as his 'Sherlock' co-star Martin Freeman explains, his nickname is "Cumberlord."
