Have not passed two weeks since you know that Owen Wilson is in talks with the director Paul Weitz (“Little Fockers”, “American Pie”, “Down to Earth”) and producers from Focus Features company to enter in the dramedia “Admission” inside a high school teacher and a secret crush on Tina Fey character and editors of the blog 24 Frames are saying that the deal fell and now are trying to bring on board of Paul Rudd, that filming could begin in May in 2012.
As comedies “Interns” and “Zoolander 2” and biographical drama about eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes that will direct Warren Beatty were not included even in pre-production, Owen Wilson’s program seemed quite free in the near future it will only lend voice to an animated character in the comedy “Turkeys”, the only project whose shooting and could overlap with those of drama “Admission” is dramedia about cryogenic missed experiments “Freezing People Is Easy”, the director Errol Morris planning to bring out the cameras in the middle of this year.
If “Freezing People Is Easy” is the reason why Owen Wilson refused to sign the contract for the project directed by Paul Weitz, we are introduced into a total madness because Paul Rudd is part of the distribution of Errol Morris and even in the lead role, which means that it is as hard as Owen Wilson to juggle both job offers.
If however the contract will stamp, cute and charming Paul Rudd will have a chance to dig their teeth into a story with dramatic potential, far more serious than it usually receives, which would help to highlight interpretative skills, “Wanderlust”, “Our Idiot Brother”, “How Do You Know” or “Dinner for Schmucks” is frivolous and addressing an audience that does not taste dry and intelligent humor. Paul Rudd will launch during 2012, the romantic drama “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” and comedy “This Is 40″, but he has agreed to the comedy “Lucky Dog”.
