The following e-mail arrived at the SZ today:
“Here is an article that was in the Hartford Courant:
You know all those stories about name talent in Hollywood being booked and double-booked into pre-strike movies – and how there are almost no stars of marquee value left with free space on their schedules? Well, now we can tell you that even boxoffice-challenged SYLVESTER STALLONE is hurrying into a pre-strike project – and a promising one at that.
It’s “Dolan’s Cadillac,” a STEPHEN KING story in which STALLONE will play a Las Vegas kingpin who thinks he’s gotten away with murder, though the spouse of the victim has big revenge plans.
The CRUISE-WAGNER project [as in TOM CRUISE and PAULA WAGNER] is scheduled to start the last week of April in Mexico. That’s last minute for production and post-production, considering the strike could start June 30th.
