Friday, August 24th, 2007 by Dr Malcolm Crowe

Every time I hear a rumor I find worthy of sharing, I am going to post it with the ‘Rumor or Trumor?’ disclaimer. Well, apparently Alan Ruck (Ferris Bueller’s Day Off / Spin City) was doing some press rounds in Australia and mentioned that he had a role in The Happening that he couldn’t talk about. Hmm, could it be true? I shall keep you posted.

p.s. – A trumor is a rumor that turns out to be true

Mark Wahlberg is Happening?

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007 by Dr Malcolm Crowe

According to JoBlo’s Mike Sampson, Mark Wahlberg is in talks to star in Shyamalan’s The Happening. Mark would be playing Elliot Moore, a teacher and struggling musician. It’s his struggle, along with that of his ex-wife and daughter, that we follow along in the film. The deal is far from done, but he is what we would call “in talks” for the role. Those talks can be very preliminary or  very advanced. Keep in mind that publicists like to announce an actor’s next movie as their current movie is getting ready to hit theaters.

Wahlberg’s Shooter opens next Friday. Coincidence?
