Over the last few weeks we’ve been covering the growing cast of Scenes From A Gay Marriage’s Matt Riddlehoover’s upcoming LGBT-themed movie, which already includes the likes of Maria Conchita Alonso, Charlie David, Jared Allman, Josey Greenwell, Jonathan D. Lovitz, and Enrique Sapene. Now two more have been added, in the form of Gay rights activist Justin Mikita and award-winning comedienne Christine O’Leary.
Mikita co-produced last year’s Los Angeles premiere of 8: The Play, which chronicled the landmark trial of California’s Prop. 8, using actual court transcripts and first-hand interviews. O’Leary, who recently performed stand-up with Joy Behar, has been nominated “One of the 50 Funniest Lesbians in America” and serves on the Board of Directors for True Colors, Inc., a GLBTQA Youth Serving Agency.
Riddlehoover’s currently untitled film is about a newly together gay couple who find their blissful life disrupted by friends and relatives. Thematically, the script aims to grind gears about civil rights, hereditary illnesses, and life itself – all while making you laugh. Production is slated to begin shooting in Spring 2013 in Los Angeles.
As we reported a couple of weeks ago, the movie is currently seeking funding on Indiegogo, so head over there if you’d like to help.
Plans to bring He-Man and the Masters Of The Universe back to the screen are slowly moving forward, with 
It appears Ryan Reynolds is hoping to team up with director Jon Favreau for the high-speed drama Battle for Bonneville, which New Regency is currently in final negotiations to acquire.
Anyone who enjoyed the creepy chills of The Woman In Black may be wondering how a sequel would work, but after the $130 million plus success of the movie, it’s little wonder Hammer Films wants a follow-up. They’ve been working on the film ever since Woman In Black was released, working from a story idea by Susan Hill (who wrote the original novel), with Jon Croker handling the screenplay.
Ewan McGregor is one of those actors some love and others hate, but he does tend to pick unusual and interesting projects (which is why some have been great and a lot have been dreadful). Now he has signed on to star in the crime thriller Son of a Gun, for Australian director Julius Avery.
