Looks like Steven Antin/Kate Weatherhead on Book

Christina Aguilera, Sia, and Diane Warren on music

Jess Folley and Todrick Hall on additional music (disclaimer: I am NOT a Todrick Hall fan)

Don't worry, bestie... Here We Are starts tonight.

1. Just because an entity name has been set up, doesn't mean this is anything more than a reading/workshop --it's just a way to enter into a contract with (and pay) people.

2. Foresight is a GM -- not a producer.

3. Not sure if your opinion of Todrick Hall required any sort of a disclaimer -- but glad you were able to get that off your chest.

The movie is one of my guilty pleasures.

God this board is so ungrateful.

Next time I have information I'll just keep it to myself!"

I appreciate the info!! But definitely know how you feel!! It’s the worst feeling when you post something and then people get snarky with you, especially when we’re all just trying to be helpful! Know that I am grateful for any and all information shared!! :)

Maybe Alan Cumming will reprise his worthless role from the movie.

Someone call Orfeh

god lord not ever movie needs to be a stage musical, please make it stop.

FWIW, at least one person out there in the world thought that all the movie needed was an edit to make it less cheesy. Maybe this turns out to be a similar exercise. But I doubt it.

Decided to throw in my Blu-ray on this rainy day, and, between this and Easy A, 2010 was Tucci as his absolute hottest.

As for the movie, I genuinely enjoy it, and I don't hate the idea of a stage version.

The writing team for this is a bit of a joke. Sia, Xtina, Todrick, AND their leading lady. They should've just had Christina and Linda Perry write it. They'd still be pop songs but they'd be good pop songs. I wonder if she's actually even involved or are they just keeping Bound To You so she's getting a credit.

I truly have no idea. If she was the lead, would she sell lots of tickets. I have no sense of where her career these days. Think the idea of her as older character is good, particularly if she sells tickets.
