Stars as Disney Characters: Jessica Biel, Scarlett Johansson, Rachel Weisz

Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella, Jessica Biel as Pocahontas, and Rachel Weisz as Snow White? Hey, why not, we’re tired of seeing the same ol animated girls, why not slip a famous celebrity into the role, photograph it, and use it to promote Disneyland? Um, yeah, that’s the idea. I have to admit, the Jessica Biel as Pocahontas one is really hot, but the Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella brings up all manner of ideas that would break the law in a number of States in the Union. And just for laughs, there’s model Gisele Bundchen as Wendy from Peter Pan and Jennifer Lopez as Jasmine from Aladdin.

Rachel Weisz as Snow White in Disney Ads

I’ve always thought Rachel Weisz had that something-something about her that makes men’s legs quiver, but I didn’t know what it was until she stepped into the corset of Snow White for these Year of a Million Dreams Ad Campaign for Disney. Says Weisz about making her childhood ream come true: “I’m a woman now, but it doesn’t matter what age your are, I think you always want to be Snow White. It is every little girl’s dream.” Now ain’t that sweet? Me, my childhood dream was to be Freddy Krueger, but you know, I was kind of weird back then. Not like now. Now, my dream is to be more like Jason Vorhees because, let’s face it, who doesn’t love the machete? Anyhoo, some Rachel Weisz as Snow White for your ogling pleasure.

Rachel Weisz Appreciation Post

I don’t think Rachel Weisz gets enough credit for being a babe. It could be that she doesn’t show up very often in the tabloids, and when she does do talk show appearances, she always comes across as very shy and reserved, so people just never realize noticed that this is one hot woman. So in an attempt to rectify that great crime against men everywhere, here’s one picture of Rachel Weisz that may or may not make you appreciate her more. That is, you will appreciate her more if you’re a warm-blooded man, and you won’t if you’re gay or not a man, whatever the case may be. Behold and appreciate, scum — Rachel Weisz.

Luke Ford, Michelle Yeoh Joins MUMMY 3

Rachel Weisz is out, but 26-year old Australian actor Luke Ford and Chinese actress Michelle Yeoh are in the “Mummy 3″, reports Variety. In the film, Ford will play Alex O’Connell, the 20ish son of adventurer Rick O’Connell (Brendan Fraser), who journeys into the forbidden tombs of China and into the Himalayas, where they run into a new shape-shifting mummy, a former Chinese emperor who was cursed by a female wizard. Kung fu superstar Jet Li, in only his second villainous role, will play the mummy, while Michelle Yeoh will assay the part of the wizard.

Rachel Weisz Out of MUMMY 3

I guess I should have known rumors that Rachel Weisz was coming back to the third installment in the “Mummy” franchise was somewhat optimistic. We’re talking about Rachel Weisz, who has gone from action-adventure (”The Mummy” films) to Oscar winner (”The Constant Garderner”). It’s kind of hard to go back to fighting CGI mummies (even if the leader of those movies will be Jet Li) after that kind of acting achievement. So it was no surprise when Reuters reported that Weisz had bowed out of the project (to be directed by Rob Cohen), and to star Brendan Fraser once again. I wonder how they’re going to explain her character’s absense. Grave robbing accident, maybe?

Jet Li Really is Going to be in “Mummy 3″!

They’ve been rumors that Jet Li was going to play the villain in the latest “Mummy” films for a while now, but it never seemed really possible to me. Li may have played a villain in “Lethal Weapon 4″, but that was his first Hollywood movie, and I was sure he wasn’t going to do it again. Well maybe I was wrong. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Li is in negotiations to play the villainous mummy in “Mummy 3″, which will be set in and around China and its culture. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, on the other hand, haven’t yet to sign on the bottom line, although both have said many times that they’re gung ho about coming back. It looks like it’s all about the money at this point, but considering the franchise’s profitability, that won’t take long.

Rachel Weisz Replacing Angelina Jolie for “Sin City 2″?

According to the dudes at Cinema Blend, an unnamed source has told them that Angelina Jolie is out of “Sin City 2″ and Rachel Weisz is in. The reasons seem to stem from Mother Angelina’s tireless schedule not allowing her to fit “Sin City 2″ in, and Rachel Weisz’s lack of a tireless schedule and Mother Teresa-like complex. Oh well. In “Sin City 2″, Weisz would play the role of Ava Lord, a sex bomb who leads our hero Dwight (Clive Owen in the original film) through a series of manipulations and that ol set-up for murder stuff that good guys always end up in in these pulp noir movies.

Keanu Reeves on Board for “Constantine” Sequel

According to this article, Keanu Reeves will be “whoa’ing” his way back into the black trenchcoat of demon slayer Constantine in a sequel set in a Latin American country sometime next year. The flick, which I kinda liked (Reeves’ stilted, dumbell acting notwithstanding), didn’t exactly light the U.S. box office on fire when it hit in 2005, but it did blockbuster business overseas, which is apparently enough for the Powers That Be to greenlight the sequel. The original was directed by MTV vet Francis Lawrence, who will only produce the sequel, and there is no word if Rachel Weisz will return. One can only hope.

Rachel Weisz Back for “Mummy 3″

According to the guys over at Cinematical, accented lass Rachel Weisz says she’s up for a third installment in the popular action-adventure “The Mummy” franchise. Says Rachel: “I know there’s a new script but I haven’t read it yet. Nothing’s definite yet and should the film be done, it’s probably going to happen next summer. And if so, I would definitely like to be in it.” Sounds good. Now if only they can bring back Patricia Velasquez and make her wrestle Rachel in a vat of chocolate. What? I like chocolate.

Rachel Weisz Caught in the Shower?

Someone call help, Rachel Weisz is trapped in the showers! Or at least I think she’s trapped. Maybe she’s just taking a break from showering. Whatever the case, here’s the lovely Brit doing something weird in the shower.
