One week after the Fourth of July holiday, Hollywood is back at work and tweeting about it. Jon Favreau gave a status update from the "Iron Man 2" set, where he's getting ready to shoot scenes with Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow now that Mickey Rourke is finished.
"Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World," which is filming up in Toronto this summer, got some tweet defense today from creator Bryan Lee O'Malley, who was irked by online frustrations that the cast won't be attending this year's San Diego Comic-Con. The comic book writer and artist shared the simple scheduling conflict that's keeping them Canada. You'll find both of these posts, as well as Jeremy Piven's heartfelt shout-out to Hayden Panettiere and Pen Jillette's own defense of jury duty. It's all below in the Twitter-Wood report for July 13, 2009.
@Jon_Favreau Lighting a scene with Robert, Gwyneth and Don. Start shooting in 10.

@jeremypiven 4 the record: Hayden Panettiere is a lovely hard working women who I'm lucky enough to call my buddy.

@radiomaru S.P. The Movie shoots through August. 6-day weeks. 12-hr round trip to San Diego on a Sunday would kill everyone. Cut them some slack.
-Bryan Lee O’Malley, Writer (”Scott Pilgrim vs. the World”)
@pennjillette Monday morning I have jury duty. People say, "Can't you get out of it." I don't think I want to. I'd like to do it. Is that crazy talk?
-Penn Jillette, Producer/Actor (”The Aristocrats,” “Penn & Teller: Bullshit!”)
@ThatKevinSmith Took the wife and kid to TWELFTH NIGHT with Anne Hathaway and an amazing cast in Central Park. Superb staging. Shakespeare was a funny guy.
