- Gina Gershon, Danny Glover, and Robert Patrick have been tapped for indie flick Five Minarets in New York, about a Turkish scholar’s wife (Gershon) who’s accused of a crime she didn’t commit. Good pal Bill Clinton eagerly awaits to supply her with tips. [THR]
- Can I get a chung-chung? Elisabeth Röhm, of Heroes and Law & Order fame, will play Taylor Lautner’s mom in the thriller Abduction. [THR]
- Reid Scott has been promoted from bartender on My Boys to oncologist — who “has lots of training and intellect, but lacks life or professional experience — on The Big C. At least we can assume the good doc knows how to treat for side effects brought on by Hot Pocket. [Deadline]
Maybe Gina will realize by playing this role what she did by betraying the artist/musician crippled, motorized wheelchair bound, legally blind man of crimes that she commits, not him. She got her NY police department to threaten him for his efforts in the business of entertainment and artistic license by making up some delusional statements. He has the credentials to prove his efforts legit. Does she?
