Jennifer Aniston Is Going To Be A Queer Female President For Netflix’s First Ladies

May 21, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s proving difficult enough getting a woman into the White House, let alone an LGBTQ one. However, Netflix is going to show us that fiction can do what real-life has failed to with First Ladies. It’s been announced that Jennifer Aniston will play the first female president in the show, with comedian, writer and actor Tig Notaro as her wife.

Notaro also helped come up with the idea for the show and will co-write the script alongside her real-life wife, Stephanie Allynne. Netflix hasn’t released a huge amount of details, except that, ‘First Ladies is a political comedy about America’s first female President and her wife, The First Lady. When Beverly and Kasey Nicholson move into the White House, they’ll prove that behind every great woman… is another great woman.’

Aniston will also produce the series alongside Adam McKay, Will Ferrell, Jessica Elbaum and Betsy Koch. It’s not known when we might get to see the series – it’ll certainly be one to look out for though!

New Mother’s Day Trailer – Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson team for a tale of moms

March 30, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Mothers-Day-slideBrits may be a bit confused about why a film called Mother’s Day is reaching cinemas over here until June, but it’s because Americans have a different Mother’s Day to us, so they’re getting the film in April, and we might as well wait until June. The movie itself is another Garry Marshall ensemble tale (after Valentine’s Day and New Year’s Eve).

This one stars the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Julia Roberts, Kate Hudson, Britt Robertson, Sarah Chalke, Shay Mitchell, Jon Lovitz, Aasif Mandvi, Timothy Olyphant and Margo Martindale. A new trailer has dropped, which you can take a look at below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘“Mother’s Day” is the latest star studded ensemble comedy from director Garry Marshall (“Pretty Woman,” “Valentine’s Day”). Bringing together Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson and Julia Roberts along with Jason Sudeikis, it’s a celebration of mothers everywhere. This big-hearted comedy invites us all to enjoy the laughter, tears and love as three generations come together in the week leading up to Mother’s Day.’ [Read more…]

Jennifer Aniston & Jason Bateman Reuniting For Office Christmas Party

February 21, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

jason-bateman

Horrible Bosses co-stars Jennifer Aniston & Jason Bateman have decided it’s time to work together again, as THR reports theyre getting back together to star in Office Christmas Party (although lets hope that’s just a working title, as it’s a dreadful name). Dreamworks is back the movie with Blades of Glory directors Will Speck and Josh Gordon helming from a script by Lee Eisenberg, Gene Stupnitsky and Laura Solon.

TJ Miller and Kate McKinnon are also set to star in the movie, which follows ‘a cast of characters who have to contend with an office party gone awry’. There’s not much more info than that about the movie, but presumably we can expect drunken hook-up, people telling the boss things they shouldn’t and plenty of behaviour they’ll be embarassed about on Monday morning.

The movie will shoot this Spring, with a December 2016 release date already set.

Mother’s Day Trailer – The stars line up for another Garry Marshall ensemble movie

February 13, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Mothers-Day-slideDirector Garry Marshall had a surprised hit with the star-studden Valentine’s Day, but audience’s weren’t as interested in the follow-up, New Year’s Eve. However, Marshall hasn’t given up, as now he’s bringing us Mother’s Day, which features the likes of Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson, and Jason Sudeikis.

Once more they are a loosely connected group of people, all of whom are having issues involving mothers (or with the fact they are mothers), around the days that moms are supposed to be celebrated. To give us a taste, the first trailer has arrived, which you can take a look at below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘“Mother’s Day” is the latest star studded ensemble comedy from director Garry Marshall (“Pretty Woman,” “Valentine’s Day”). Bringing together Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson and Julia Roberts along with Jason Sudeikis, it’s a celebration of mothers everywhere. This big-hearted comedy invites us all to enjoy the laughter, tears and love as three generations come together in the week leading up to Mother’s Day.’

It’ll be in cinemas this spring.

Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson Up For Garry Marshall’s Mother’s Day

July 1, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

julia-robertsGarry Marshall’s ensemble rom-com New Year’s Eve may not have matched the surprise success of Valentine’s Day, but he’s visiting the concept again with Mother’s Day, according to Deadline.

The director is now living up the cast, with Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson and Jason Sudeikis all in talks to star.

Katherine Fugate wrote the first two movies, but this new instalment replaces her with Anya Kochoff-Romano and Lily Hollander.

Assuming it all comes together it will mark the fourth collaboration between Marshall and Julia Roberts, following Pretty Woman, Runaway Bride and Valentine’s Day. The movie should start shooting in August.

Cake (Blu-ray Review)

June 28, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Jennifer Aniston, Adriana Barazza, Sam Worthington, Anna Kendrick, Felicity Huffman
Director: Daniel Barnz
Running Time: 102 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: June 29th 2015 (UK)

It seems that Jennifer Aniston is destined to only put in really good performances in movies that not that many people see. Back in 2002, reviewers fawned over her role in The Good Girl, but when after that she went back to dreck like The Bounty Hunter (shudder), The Switch (wretch) and Just Go With It (vomit), everybody forgot she is actually very good when given the chance. That has occasionally shown through, even in films like We’re The Millers, but because of the type of movie’s she’s in it’s largely been overlooked.

As a result, her performance in Cake has been described by some as ‘revelatory’, but it’s not, it’s just a reminder that she has real dramatic chops to mix in with the comedy when she has the right role. It wouldn’t actually be too much of a surprise if she won an Oscar one day, and indeed many say she should have gotten a nomination for Cake. [Read more…]

Cake Trailer – Jennifer Aniston gets serious for an indie drama

November 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

jennifer-aniston-cakeAlthough we’ve got used to Jennifer Aniston popping up in Hollywood comedies, she’s actually done some really good work in the indie realm, although not for quite a few years. However now she’s back with the indie drama Cake, which is already giving her some excellent buzz.

The impressive cast also includes Anna Kendrick, Sam Worthington, William H. Macy, Felicity Huffman, Chris Messina, and Adriana Barazza.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Claire Simmons (Jennifer Aniston) is in pain. Her physical pain is evident in the scars that line her body and the way she carries herself, wincing with each tentative step. She’s no good at hiding her emotional pain either. Blunt to the point of searing insult, Claire’s anger seethes out of her with nearly every interaction. She has driven away her husband, her friends — even her chronic-pain support group has kicked her out.

‘The only one left in Claire’s otherwise solitary existence is her housekeeper-cum-caretaker, Silvana (Academy Award nominee Adriana Barraza), who barely tolerates her boss’ need for liquor and prescription pills. But the suicide of Nina (Academy Award nominee Anna Kendrick), one of Claire’s fellow chronic-pain group members, prompts another fixation. In pursuing questions about the death of a woman she barely knew, Claire explores the boundaries between life and death, abandonment and heartbreak, danger and salvation. As she inserts herself into the lives of Nina’s husband (Sam Worthington) and the son Nina left behind, Claire just might find salvation.’ [Read more…]
