Don’t hire Howie Mandell for your private party; The Rock’s grandma has some in ring experience; Kristen Bell is a real joker…
Bonus Scoopage: The Thai cave rescue will be the subject of not one, but two competing movies. Now You See Me 2 director Jon M. Chu is doing a movie about the rescue operation a day after Pure Flix Entertainment announced it was seeking the movie rights to the mission.
Chu signaled that he was working on the project on Wednesday with a tweet, which appeared to slam Pure Flix’s efforts. “I refuse to let Hollywood #whitewashout the Thai Cave rescue story! No way. Not on our watch. … There’s a beautiful story abt human beings saving other human beings. So anyone thinking abt the story better approach it right & respectfully.”
I get what he’s saying, but do we need a movie about this? Much less two movies… Didn’t we just see two weeks of news coverage on it? I mean, you do you, but two movies? Is one going to be from the cave’s perspective? Now that’s a movie I’d watch.
