Deadline.com: Renee Zellweger Coming to Broadway in THE HUSTLER

Didn't see this posted. According to Deadline.com, Zellweger will be appearing in a Broadway adaptation of THE HUSTLER. Here's the article:

Renée Zellweger will star with Johnny Knoxville in the comedy that marks the actress’ directorial debut. K5 International and PalmStar Media Capital concluded a financing and sales deal today on the film, which K5 will introduce to buyers in Toronto. 4 1/2 Minutes is set in New York City’s stand-up milieu with Knoxville playing a commitment-phobic comic whose life is falling apart when he takes a job looking after single-mom Zellweger’s genius son. The story is based on the comedy of real-life stand-up Dov Davidoff. Warrior‘s Anthony Tambakis penned the Zellweger and Tambakis are already working together on TV drama Cinnamon Girl, a 1970s-set project that the pair co-created and which Lifetime picked up to pilot in July. She’ll also star in the upcoming Broadway adaptation of The Hustler, written by Tambakis and to be directed by Warrior‘s Gavin O’Connor.

"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"

Pretty funny, right?

There's another she does of Zellweger, but I can't find it right now. Zellweger is cast in a Magnificent Obsession type film, but instead of being blind she develops a terrible squint! She asks the doctor, "How long...am I...going to have...this squint?!?!" It's hilarious.
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco. Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

I keed the Zellweger.
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

Bizarrely enough i was just thinking about her on Broadway recently. i hope this leads to more ventures i could see her being a startlingly good Amanda in Glass Menagerie. If you've seen picture this you know what i'm talking about.

Wow, people on this board will believe anything. The Hustler? Please. Directed and written by people involved in Warrior? You would think by this time that someone would understand what PR bullcrap is, but I guess not.
