Nicole
gets snatched
Nicole
Kidman is set to star in a remake of Invasion of the Body
Snatchers (versions of the story were filmed in 1956 and in 1978). The
Warner Bros. release, led by German director
Oliver Hirschbiegel and written by Dave Kajganich, will center on Kidman's
character who uncovers a conspiracy in a small town where the
inhabitants’ personalities seem to be changing. Shooting is scheduled to
begin in October.
Bale
and Zahn climb on board

Dawn. The independent film tells the real-life story of U.S. fighter
pilot Dieter Dengler, a German-American shot down and captured in Laos
during the Vietnam War. Dengler (to be played by Bale), organized a
death-defying escape for a small band of POWs.
Wilson:
Still experimenting
In a recent Chicago Sun-Times
interview, Owen Wilson, hot off the summer hit Wedding Crashers, in
which he plays a womanizing partier
who falls in love, spills about his romantic
methodology: "I thought I’d be married by the time I
was 30 and starting a family, but it just hasn't worked out that way. I
guess I want to be sure of my choice, and I
didn't realize that I have such a strong, scientific side that demands you
must experiment and compare."
