Russell Crowe may reunite with Gladiator director Ridley Scott for A Good Year, an Under the Tuscan Sun-type comedy set in a vineyard in Provence. Given the star, maybe they should call it The Grapes of Wrath… Saturday Night Live's Seth Meyers is in talks to write and star in Key Party, a comedy about a married couple who decide to attend an Ice Storm-style swingers' bash, with disastrous results.
Meanwhile, on the small screen: Seth's little brother, MAD TV's Josh Meyers, will fill the dweeby-normal-guy slot left by departing Topher Grace on That '70s Show, playing a college student who works for Hyde (Danny Masterson) at his record store… Carlos Bernard will return for more punishment as Jack's beleaguered pal Tony Almeida on 24… Oz convict Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje will join the cast of Lost playing Emeka, a mysterious man living on the island... With Jennifer Garner unable to slip into a rubber mini-dress anymore, Alias is recruiting a younger female agent for Sydney to mentor; no official word on who's playing the new hottie (though there is one rumor), but I bet there's a no-pregnancy clause in her contract.
