· Revolution Studios, pleased with White Chicks, will dump a truckload of money on Keenan, Shawn, and Marlon Wayans for Little Man. The movie is about a "a man anxious to be a father who mistakes an extremely short-statured, baby-faced criminal on the run as his newly adopted son." Is it just us, or does this sound a lot like the Bugs Bunny cartoon "Baby Faced Finster"? There's no Looney Tunes connection mentioned in the article. [THR]
· Judd Apatow gets his first directing gig, shooting co-writer Steve Carrell in 40 Year-Old Virgin. We're atwitter (really) for how Carrell will play the premature ejaculation jokes. [THR]
· New Line gets a remake of 1939's The Women back on track. Producers are looking to cast Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Sandra Bullock, Ashley Judd and Uma Thurman, but the Botox budget might push this one back into development hell. [Variety, sub. req'd.]
· CBS and the WB shuffle struggling dramas Clubhouse, The Mountain and Jack & Bobby around their schedules to try and salvage viewers. Does this tactic ever work? Our guess is that two of the three don't survive the winter. [THR]
· Appropriately suggestive lede of the day: "Bryan Singer appears to have found his Man of Steel." Singer casts the pretty much unknown Brandon Routh, a fact that "the internets" have known for days, but the studio have held off announcing out of respect for Christopher Reeve.[Variety, sub. req'd.]
