Russell Crowe Needs To Scarf Down Another Vegemite Sandwich And Calm The Fuck Down

Russell Crowe.  Do you remember when he was all hot and box office magic?  Me neither, but I guess he was at some point.  Apparently, he is in the land of the lost and thinks he’s still relevant in Hollywood.  I could try to blame his ishness on the carbs, but I think Russell Crowe was always a phone-flinging bitch.

In pre-production of his new movie, Nottingham, he’s been demanding rewrites, a new director and now his costar Sienna Miller has been “released”.  The media is playing it like Miller quit this movie but, please.  The producers realized that there was no way in hell people were going to buy the vision of Sienna Miller screwing fat, flabby Robin Hood/Sheriff of Nottingham; Yes, he’s playing both roles.  Casting directors are now in search of an actress in her late thirties or early forties to replace Sienna.  Have they considered Kathy Najimy?  Because that’s Russell’s league right now.

Rumors are floating around that, during the holidays, Crowe was calling around trying to find a replacement for director Ridley Scott.  The studio is denying that, natch. 

And this is just pre-production, folks.  Filming is going to be an absolute nightmare.

As an aside, can I tell you what I love so much?  A spell-check that doesn’t question me on the use of the word “ishness”.

  • Ha ha! Crowe is a Kiwi and probably doesn't like Vegemite.
    Innes is Aussie and probably does like Vegemite but does not need to scarf anything down or calm the F**K down as he's a nice guy compared to Diva Crowe.

    I've never heard of him and can't find a picture anywhere.

  • If only Aussie actor Steve Innes had been able to stay on and not gone on to do Michael Berg's Dune remake, this show might have been on the road long ago.
    Crowe does not seem to impress him certainly is not permitted to throw his weight around...

  • I think someone needs to stop this BS. The mentioned "story" originated in a gossip column without naming sources, but the comments sounded like they came from a teenager. What adult uses the word "gross" to describe another adult?

    The producers...
