TRAILER TUESDAY: The Movie Being Raved About at Sundance


CYRUS
Coming Soon
****

I have read a bunch of positive reviews about this movie coming out of Sundance and the Duplass Brothers are a pair of my favorite filmmakers -- The Puffy Chair anyone? -- so I was naturally very interested to see the trailer.

I have to say it wasn't quite what I expected. It still looks good, but this is definitely a different direction for the Duplass Brothers. First of all it does have some well-known faces in it. That, in and of itself, is a big difference.

I am certainly not betting against them here. The movie looks like a lot of fun and Jonah Hill looks creepy. Hopefully I will be able to see it somewhere relatively soon.

Josh "The O.C." Schwartz's New Project, Duplass Brothers Shine at Sundance and Another Damn Dirty Ape Movie?

I have heard some good things coming out of Sundance about Cyrus, the new Duplass Brothers movie with John C. Reilly (Step Brothers), Jonah Hill (Superbad) and Marissa Tomei (The Wrestler). This is the first Duplass Brothers movie with some weighty actors behind it. If you have no idea who the Duplass brothers are... trust me you should figure it out!

Josh Schwartz, the mastermind behind The O.C., Gossip Girl and Chuck has a new comedy in development with CBS called Hitched. Keep an eye out for that.

Apparently, somebody thought it would be a good idea to try to make another Planet of the Apes movie. What the fricktacular?
