Movies never seem to get tired of mining the comedic territory of artificial insemination. Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman have the squirm-inducing "The Baster" coming up next year. Now we learn that sperm donation means "The Kids Are All Right" for at least one cast of characters.
Variety reports that Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Mia Wasikowski ("Alice in Wonderland") and Josh Hutcherson ("Journey to the Center of the Earth") have joined director Lisa Cholodenko's indie project -- not a remake of the classic same-titled documentary about British classic rock outfit The Who -- which begins shooting today.

Impeccable designer Tom Ford has already conquered fashion and photography -- and now he's set to make his directorial debut with one heck of a cast. According to Variety, Colin Firth, Matthew Goode, and Julianne Moore have all joined the cast of his indie drama, "A Single Man." Ford is also executive producing the film, under his Fade to Black shingle, and cowriting the script with David Scearce.
The film is based on Christopher Isherwood's 1964 novel. It's centered around George, a British college professor, who suddenly loses his partner, Jim, in a tragic accident.

I had a ball making it.” Read more...
