Crowe takes over for Pitt

It’s confirmed—Academy Award winning actor Russell Crowe will replace Brad Pitt in the political thriller State of Play. Pitt walked away from the role after citing concerns with the script. With filming set to begin later this month, director Kevin MacDonald immediately turned to Crowe and persuaded him to take the role. The cast includes Rachel McAdams, Edward Norton and null.

   Don’t start “crowing” yet Russell; this movie could be a dud in the making!

   So now Mr. Pitt is getting fussy..perhaps Russel will do a better job anyway…Sorry Brad but your movies suck lately.

   I don’t think Angelina wants Brad to star with Rachel McAdams she is wayyy hotter and younger i would give my left nut to hit that.

   Hey Browny

   Sounds like you think with that particular part of your anatomy and from what I’ve read of your comments so far – it would appear you’ve already given away your left nut and half your brain along with it!

   Dream on, none of these woman would give you the time of day.
