With Joe Wright’s Pan flying into theaters this October, Hollywood may be about to embark on a new romance with the Boy Who Never Grew Up, and Disney is already getting ahead of the crowd with a live-action Tinker Bell spinoff, currently titled Tink. Today brings news that, to help them bring Peter Pan’s pint-sized sidekick to the big screen, the studio is calling on none other than Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon to spread some fairy dust.
Witherspoon is attached to both star in and produce the pic, which is being developed as a new take on a beloved character in the same vein as Disney’s mega-grossing Maleficent (though with a considerably smaller budget, according to reports). It will play with the classic Peter Pan narrative to give Tink (Witherspoon) her own tale, independent from her human-sized companion.

With Hot Pursuit, her buddy comedy with Sofia Vergara, proving a hot mess at the box office after getting raked over the coals by critics, Reese Witherspoon is retreating back into dramatic territory for Pale Blue Dot.
Witherspoon, who was Oscar-nominated earlier this year for her performance in Wild, will portray a successful female astronaut who returns home from an extended mission, only to find her mind unraveling as she attempts to readjust to a seemingly perfect American life. The pic, written by Brian C. Brown and Elliott Diguiseppi (the Black List scribe behind Uncle Shelby), explores the idea that astronauts experience an unusual form of mental illness when they return home, finding it tremendously difficult to regain a grip on earthbound reality.
Buzz is strong on this one, with Witherspoon also producing through her Pacific Standard banner. Hollywood has been hot on space-related dramas since the runaway success of Gravity,...

Alexander Payne began development on his then-next project, Downsizing, in 2009 before moving onto The Descendants. The troublesome social satire scripted by Payne and long-time writing partner Jim Taylor already had Paul Giamatti and Reese Witherspoon attached before it went belly-up. For whatever reason, 20th Century Fox were reluctant to invest in the story or its heavy use of CGI and lodged the flick into a permanent hiatus.
Late last year, the film underwent a shake-up. When news arrived that Matt Damon had relinquished his role in Zhang Zimou’s China-set epic, The Great Wall, in favour of the lead in Payne’s drama, the project returned to Fox’s development slate. Now, in a strange turn of events, Deadline reports that Witherspoon is back on board as the female lead.

Paul Feig, the director behind Bridesmaids, is currently in talks to helm an all-female reboot of classic comedy feature Ghostbusters.
All-Female 'Ghostbusters' Sequel
Feig’s Ghostbusters reboot won’t be a Ghostbusters 3, nor will it be a remake of the original. Instead, the script will be written from scratch with comedic actresses playing the ghostbusters, reported Variety.
Currently, Feig is in talks with Sony, but the project hasn’t moved forward into formal negotiations.
Feig, who earned raves with female-driven comedies Bridesmaids and The Heat, is teaming up with Melissa McCarthy for a third time in Spy, which is scheduled for release next Memorial Day. Feig is also slated to direct comedy Wish List with Reese Witherspoon in the lead role.

Over two years ago, Reese Witherspoon was attached to star in Wish List, a romantic comedy set up at Disney about an overly imaginative little girl who makes ten wishes at a wishing well. However, her coin never reaches the bottom, and she grows up to lose touch with her inner child. Now the actress is heading into more familiar Disney territory with Happily Ever After, a fairytale romantic comedy that follows a prince and princess about 10 years after they have ridden off into the sunset for their "happily ever after." However, it's not easy as the two learn that even in a magical land, relationships are hard work. Read on!

Paul Feig will be continuing his recent trend of directing comedies led by a female cast with Susan Cooper. His 2011 female-led feature, Bridesmaids, was a mega success, bringing in $288 million. That film will be followed by The Heat later this month. After bridal parties and buddy cops, Feig’s new focus will be on a female spy who is said to be reminiscent of James Bond.
While not much can be said of the plot, Feig will be taking a more realistic approach, unlike other spy comedies such as Austin Powers or Johnny English. Similar to The Heat, two characters will lead the story. The possibility of creating a franchise is also being discussed.
In addition to directing, Feig has provided the script and will be producing. He was supposedly inspired by one of his favorite movies, the 1967 spoof Casino Royale starring Peter Sellers. If the two films have anything in common,...

Reese and Jim took their trip to the Big Apple after the actress wrapped up filming for The Good Lie in Atlanta. Reese debuted her new blond hairdo when she returned to the couple's home base in La over the weekend to spend time with her family.

Has Reese Witherspoon found her next role? TheWrap reports Reese is in talks to produce "The Engagements," an adaptation of a J. Courtney Sullivan novel. If the film gets made, she may have a role in it, though there's no indication how big a part it would be.
The book, which has yet to be released, was found by the actress' production company, who brought it to the attention of Fox 2000. It's an ensemble story, that follows a diamond engagement ring. The story begins in the 1930s, ending in the present day, telling the tales of five different relationships.
If this movie doesn't happen with Witherspoon, she's not hurting for work. The Oscar winner has roles in the upcoming films "Mud," and "Devil's Knot," which centers around the trial of the West Memphis Three. She's also starring in "Wish List," the next movie from "Bridesmaids" director Paul Feig.

His casting fortune continued last night when Variety reported Feig and 20th Century Fox got Academy award winner Sandra Bullock and Bridesmaids standout Melissa McCarthy signed on to star in his future, currently untitled buddy cop movie.

Last year, Bridesmaids did more than just become one of the most successful comedies and launch Kristen Wiig’s career to the next level: it also provided a healthy boost for both director Paul Feig and scene stealer Melissa McCarthy. The pair are now reconnecting for a new film, and have roped in Sandra Bullock for the untitled cop comedy.The buddy script comes from Katie Dippold, who has been honing her comedy chops on Us sitcom Parks And Recreation. The story finds an upright FBI agent (we’re guessing Bullock – she’s got form with the Bureau) and an unconventional Boston cop (sounds like something McCarthy could win with) forced to work together.20th Century Fox is looking to get this one shooting this summer to take advantage of McCarthy’s break from her own TV job on Mike And Molly.

Be on the lookout for a touch of high school hilarity in this summer's "The Amazing Spider-Man".
According to Vulture, "Spider-Man" director Marc Webb got some writing assistance from "Bridesmaids" director Paul Feig with one of the film's scenes.
Feig attended Tribeca Film Festival last night for the "Take This Waltz" premiere and gushed about his connection with Webb.
"I'm looking forward to 'The Amazing Spider-Man,'" he explained. "[Webb]'s a great guy, he invited me on set, and I did a little bit of writing for that movie, for one of the high school scenes, so I'm excited."
Feig's got some serious experience with writing about the woes of adolescence, having created the short-lived but beloved television show "Freaks and Geeks," about a group of teens dealing with the usual dilemmas — factions, bullying, alcohol and drugs, to name a few.

When the news first broke about Reese Witherspoon becoming attached to a high concept Disney comedy called Wish List, we worried that it sounded as though she was falling back on formula rom-coms. We’re still a little cautious about the premise, but we’re heartened to see that Bridesmaids' Paul Feig is now in negotiations to direct it. Wish List would see Witherspoon as a woman who made a set of wishes when she was young. Now, as a driven career type with no real memory of what she asked for, she finds the wishes suddenly coming true and causing havoc in her life. But, we would hazard a guess, possibly also offering important life lessons.The script, which has been lurking around the studios since 2001 (when it was originally conceived with a male lead character), has been through the hands of Randi Mayem Singer, Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger.

Some of you may remember Disney's "Wish List" project. It was reported last August that Reese Witherspoon had signed on to star in the gig; a comedy about an overly imaginative little girl who makes ten wishes at a wishing well. None of the wishes come true because the coins never touch the bottom of the well, but 25 years later, they're dislodged, and now this ambitious career woman has to deal with the consequences of ten wishes made as a child that are coming to pass.
Sounds a bit like "Enchanted" meets "When In Rome," and it was originally going to be written by Randi Mayem Singer who wrote "The Tooth Fairy" (and ironically enough a project first developed for a male lead, a la "Big"), but apparently it's been penned by "Kung Fu Panda 2" screenwriters Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger. Now "Bridesmaids" director Paul Feig is in negotiations...

Paul Feig, the man who brought Bridesmaids' bathroom humor and plane hallucinations to the big screen, may have found his next project in Disney's Wish List, starring Reese Witherspoon. The director is currently in talks with the studio, as The Hollywood Reporter has exclusively learned. The film seems to follow a bit in the vein of Enchanted and Kate & Leopold: a career-driven woman all of a sudden has to fend with all manner of absurd hilarity as her childhood wishes one by one come true. Is that a pastel pink pony in my living room? Eek! And why am I wearing an astronaut suit with a built-in tutu? And why is everyone calling me Madame President? Oh what a mess! Here's to Feig reining in the kiddy laughs and giving us a few moments of good 'ole Bridesmaids-style adult awkwardness to make it worth our while.

I have a hard time watching Reese Witherspoon movies. It's not because she picks terrible projects or because she's a bad actress - in fact, it's actually the opposite. Every time I see her on screen I immediately think back to Alexander Payne's Election and her performance as Tracy Flick, a character so grating and awful that it's actually poisoned my perception of the person who played her (Note: Making the whole situation that much stranger, I love every other aspect of Election). As a result, I've actively tried to avoid all Witherspoon movies since, but now THR has news about who may direct her next project and, in a surprise twist, it makes me actually anticipate seeing it. Paul Feig is now in talks to direct Wish List, a new Disney fantasy comedy that already has Witherspoon on board to star. The story follows a "career-oriented woman" whose...

We heard a few months back in the summer that Reese Witherspoon had come aboard Disney’s Wish List, leading the film as a career-driven woman whose childhood dreams are granted twenty-five years late.
THR now report that Disney are moving ahead nicely with the project, hiring the Emmy-winning writing team of Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger to pen the script.
The film will see,
“an overly imaginative little girl who makes ten wishes at a wishing well. They don’t come true because her coin never reached the bottom and eventually she loses her inner child and becomes a full grown and ambitious career woman. Some 25 years later, the coin is dislodged, falls to the bottom and she has to deal with the ramifications of 10 kid wishes coming true all at once.”
Aibel and Berger’s credits are pretty impressive, including both Kung Fu Panda films, as well as DreamWorks’ Monsters vs.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Disney moved forward on fixing the situation by hiring Kung Fu Panda 2 screenwriters Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger to re-write Randi Mayem Singer’s original script about a young girl who drops a coin into a wishing well and makes ten wishes with no impact. Witherspoon signed on to play the little girl as a grown career woman who faces her childhood wishes coming true all at once because her coin dislodged after 25 years and finally lands at the bottom of the well.

With the success of this summer’s Kung Fu Panda 2, scribes Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger have been tapped to write the Disney fantasy comedy Wish List. Reese Witherspoon it set to star in the film from veteran Disney producers Mark Ciardi and Gordon Gray of Mayhem Pictures. [THR]
Wish List will tell the story of a workaholic adult whose perfect life is thrown upside down when all the wishes they made as a child magically come true. Judging by the small synopsis, Witherspoon seems like a perfect fit for this type of role and could definitely bring a lot of energy to the character. Based on the surprise of their DreamWork hit, I’m sure Ciardi and Gray will have no problem formulating a fun, happy script that will make both kids and adults laugh.
The project has been sitting around the studio since 2001, where it was originally set for a male comedy star.

Back in October, we got the excellent news that Clint Eastwood would be making his return to acting in Trouble With The Curve, after Beyoncé Knowles’ pregnancy put production on his next directorial project, A Star Is Born, on hold.
Just a few days after that, word came that Sandra Bullock was in talks for the female lead, the role of Eastwood’s daughter in the film. The Playlist now report that Bullock has decided to pass on the part, and now two more brilliant actresses are being eyed for the role in the form of Amy Adams (The Fighter) and Reese Witherspoon (Water for Elephants).
The script has been penned by relative newcomer Randy Brown, and will see the directorial debut of Eastwood’s long-time friend and producing partner, Robert Lorenz, focusing on Eastwood as,

The last time we wrote about Reese Witherspoon adding a potential project to her schedule, it was for the generic-sounding Wish List. Back then, we bemoaned the fact that it didn’t exactly sound like she was making anything different from her usual fare when on rom-com duty. Well, now she’s being approached for something that could be more interesting, as Sony wants her to star in Sex Tape.No, the studio doesn't want her to go all Paris Hilton: it’s a comedy written by Kate Angelo about a married couple who get the night off from looking after their kids and decide to add a little spark back into their sex lives by making a private tape. But when they wake up, the recording is gone, kicking off a frantic search.Yeah, it sounds a little like a kinkier Date Night, but Sony also wants Forgetting Sarah Marshall...

Reese Witherspoon stopped by the Brentwood Country Mart in La yesterday for a bit of light shopping. Still modeling a fresh off the beach glow from her recent family trip to Hawaii, she carried Givenchy's ivory Nightingale bag on her arm. Reese has amassed an arsenal of handbags in her wardrobe and has recently been spotted toting Miu Miu, Chloe, Alexander Wang, Marni, and Bottega Veneta, to name a few. Luxury items may be a few of Reese's favorite things, but in her new Disney film, Wish List, her character's childhood wishes are granted, which may be more along the lines of ponies and prince charming than designer wares.

Reese Witherspoon picked up some items from Ron Herman during a Friday afternoon spent shopping in Beverly Hills. Reese was once again looking adorable in a Summery skirt and low heels, though this is a slightly more casual version than the Chanel and Louboutins she wore earlier in the week. She's been frequenting the city's high end boutiques recently and has been spotted scoping out James Perse, Hermés, Chloe, and Cartier to name a few. Her free time between movies will be coming to an end soon since she recently signed on to star in the sweet-sounding romantic comedy Wish List and Reese is also in talks to join Matthew McConaughey in Mud. Matthew is a good friend of her husband Jim Toth, who is also his agent, and both Mm and his patrner Camila were in attendance at Reese and Jim's Spring wedding. View Slideshow ›...

Reese Witherspoon had a busy morning of working out and running errands around La today. She made a stop at the Brentwood Country Mart, picking up a bag of goodies from James Perse and then heading back to her SUV with the new purchases in a reusable American Eagle bag. It would appear Reese is getting a jump start on her Fall wardrobe, since yesterday she was spotted leaving Chloé's Melrose Avenue outpost. It's almost back-to-school time for her kids, Ava and Deacon Phillippe, following their Summer of fun. Ava and Deacon spent the July 4 holiday playing on the beach with Reese and their stepfather, Jim, then took an out-of-town adventure with dad, Ryan Phillippe. Busy Reese has her own new material to study. Reese just signed on to star in Wish List, and there's a possibility she'll team up with pal Matthew McConaughey in Mud. View Slideshow ›...

Two rather pretty movie stars are down for getting dirty.
Reese Witherspoon and Matthew McConaughey are in talks to join director Jeff Nichols' down and dirty drama, "Mud," according to Variety.
Described as being in the vein of "Stand by Me" (a pitch you don't hear too often), "Mud" chronicles the strange and dangerous friendship between an escaped fugitive and the 14-year-old boy who helps him evade the law as he looks to reunite with his sweetheart.
McConaughy will play Mud, the fugitive, and Witherspoon will take on the role of Juniper, his lady in waiting. Tye Sheridan ("The Tree of Life") is in talks to play Ellis, the boy and unlikely guardian angel.
"Mud" marks the third feature film for director Nichols, whose "Take Shelter," starring Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain, has enjoyed a strong festival run and will hit theaters on Sept. 30.

Matthew McConaughey and Reese Witherspoon along with young thesp Tye Sheridan (The Tree of Life) are in talks to star in Mud, the follow-up to Jeff Nichols’ Cannes Critics’ Week winner Take Shelter.
Mud is the great, redemption story of a compelling fugitive named Mud (McConaughey) and his unlikely friendship with fourteen-year-old Ellis (Sheridan). Ellis is determined to help Mud to escape from both the law and some very dangerous bounty hunters face, in order to join up Mud with his romantic companion, Juniper (Witherspoon).
Nichols wrote the script as well.
No word yet on when it will shoot Mud, neither film has a set release date.
Everest founder Lisa Maria Falcone will produce film and she just had the guts to say that:
Jeff Nichols has written a beautiful story with rich characters learning valuable lessons through life-changing circumstances. With Jeff’s vision, this will be a work of art.

Matthew McConaughey is really going to get to play up the southern drawl on this one.
Variety reports that the Texan star, who revived his dramatic career with this spring's hit legal drama, "The Lincoln Lawyer," is entering talks to star in the indie film, "Mud," in which he'd play the titular character (yes, named Mud) who is trying to go Awol and obtain his freedom by sneaking off to an island off the coast of the Mississippi river. He'll be aided in the quest by two teenage kids, to whom he acts as a mentor.
McConaughey is a busy man; he's currently filming "The Paperboy," a drama with Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron, and will also star in "Killer Joe."
Also in talks to join the film is Reese Witherspoon; Deadline reports that she'll play McConaughey's soul mate, Juniper. She just last week signed on to a much happier tale,...

Reese Witherspoon will be starring in upcoming Disney comedy, Wish List, as a career-driven woman whose childhood dreams are granted twenty-five years late, Deadline report.
Witherspoon’s career has been a mixture of serious and light-hearted roles, and she can play both very well, and Wish List looks set to be one of the latter.
The film will see,
“an overly imaginative little girl who makes ten wishes at a wishing well. They don’t come true because her coin never reached the bottom and eventually she loses her inner child and becomes a full grown and ambitious career woman. Some 25 years later, the coin is dislodged, falls to the bottom and she has to deal with the ramifications of 10 kid wishes coming true all at once.”

Reese Witherspoon's next project is a Disney fluff piece called Wish List, about a girl whose wishes do not come true because the coin she throws into the well never reaches its bottom. Twenty-five years later, Witherspoon enters as that girl's older self, a careerist who has lost the imagination of her childhood. The coin finally drops, and she is left to deal with the fallout from ten 25-year old wishes being fulfilled en masse. The script, by Randi Mayem Singer, who brought us The Tooth Fairy (cringe), but also Mrs. Doubtfire (a more respectable piece of candy), was originally written for a male star but is being reworked for Witherspoon. Mark Ciardi and Gordon Gray, who most recently made Disney's Secretariat, will produce. -Having ...
