Countdown

With the countdown to the 83rd annual Academy Awards in its final phase (there's just five days left until the big night), there's still news coming out about the ceremony: It was announced Tuesday morning (February 22) that actress Scarlett Johansson and funny man Russell Brand will attend the 2011 Oscars as presenters.

 

Johansson, who appeared in last year's hit "Iron Man 2" and is currently filming Cameron Crowe's upcoming "We Bought a Zoo," has recently been the focus of the media attention due to her divorce from actor Ryan Reynolds.

 

Meanwhile, Brand, who wed singer Katy Perry last year and stars in the upcoming "Arthur" reboot with Helen Mirren, tried out his own style of edgy comedy during his hosting stint on the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009 and just this month on "Saturday Night Live."

 

This will mark the first Oscar appearance for the "Get Him to the Greek" star, who joked on his Twitter page Tuesday, "I am presenting an Oscar. I shall also choose the recipient. At last my work as Aldous Snow will be honoured, for best actor-ing."

 

Brand and Johansson will join fellow A-list presenters Sandra Bullock (last year's Best Actress recipient will hand out this year's Best Actor trophy), Jeff Bridges (2010 Best Actor winner to hand out the Best Actress award), Oprah Winfrey, Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Robert Downey Jr., Hugh Jackman, Reese Witherspoon, Cate Blanchett and Marisa Tomei, as well as two of this year's Best Actress nominees, Nicole Kidman and Annette Bening.

 

Matt

In line with the Nationwide Enquirer, whereas Scarlett Johansson and Matt Damon playfully wrestled over a water bottle throughout a break from shooting We Purchased a Zoo, ”an orangutan who’s co-starring with them instantly went BANANAS!”

The tab goes on to claim that “the grouchy gorilla, who’s apparently taken quite a monkey-shine to Scarlett since filming began, obtained jealous and indignant when Matt began grabbing at her,” and pelted the Oscar winner with “APE DOO-DOO!”

If the supermarket rag had simply spent as much time reality-checking as it did developing with primate puns, it wouldn’t have printed this - to borrow a phrase - “poop.”

This monkey business by no means happened.

In addition to not even having an orangutan in the movie, a rep for the movie tells Gossip Cop, “No such event occurred on the set of We Bought A Zoo.”

uses concealer

A Nordic blonde beauty who continues to captivate audiences, Scarlett Johansson is recognised for her natural beauty, sensual mouth and outrageously attractive body. However, the not too long ago-separated actress additionally admits she has more than a trick or two up her sleeve for being virtually continuously gorgeous.

Scarlett Johansson has incessantly said that she is pleased with her physique and not obsessed with her weight, although she remains on form by exercising daily. She says she can't go without Chinese language food, her greatest weakness, and on the days when she appears like indulging herself a bit more, will deal with herself to a delicious vegetarian pizza, weight loss plan Coke or home-made pastry.

As for cosmetics, Scarlett has confessed that lip-gloss is an absolute should in her make-up bag. Her trick for getting her cheeks to all the time look perfect is finding the perfect color for her skin tone, so for basis she at all times uses manufacturers that supply a luminous effect. For her everyday make-up regime, she by no means goes anyplace with out her concealer, blusher, mascara and, of course, perfume.

Her favourite moment for pampering herself is when she takes a shower, which gives her a possibility to relax.

uncharted

 

 

As a lot information as I'll cover about David O. Russell's adaptation of the video game Uncharted, I've absolutely no concept what the hell is happening with it. Since learning final October that he could be taking up the venture, it has been nothing but a series of stops and starts both involving casting and story while Mark Wahlberg has finished his best to say "everything's fine." And even if all the things's high quality, then why did he begin working on one other project this month? Wherever the film could also be in improvement, Russell continues to be speaking about it, and now has dropped a small casting hint.

Empire recently spoke with the director, who acquired his first Oscar nomination last Tuesday, and when the conversation turned to Uncharted, they spoke a couple of character not yet talked about in the rumors: the love interest, Elena. After saying that he's "cultivated her fairly a bit" and "added a number of dimension," the two talked a bit about casting. After a suggestion from the interviewer that Amy Adams, who was also given an Oscar nod for her work on The Fighter, Russell mentioned,

"Oh I'd love that too, I love Amy. I also love Scarlett Johansson; there’s a variety of nice actors I believe would possibly suit. Hopefully, we’ll see how it works out with everyone who are being scoped to do this role"

Contemplating that Johansson will probably be in production on The Avengers for many of the year, one must ponder whether she would even be obtainable for the project. Despite at all times having her named mentioned in casting stories like this, it's unusual that Johansson hasn't been practically as ubiquitous as she's been in past years. Certainly a proficient actress, maybe if it takes long sufficient for Uncharted to get going she'll be capable to do it
