Marisa Tomei Gossip

Years after fans shouted into the ether of the internet, campaigning for Donald Glover to play Spider-Man—they went with Andrew Garfield, instead—Glover, of Community and Childish Gambino fame, is finally living the dream. Full Story

Ryan Gosling did not walk the carpet at the SAGs. He didn’t walk at the Golden Globes either. Don’t be surprised if he doesn’t walk at the Oscars; he was confirmed as a presenter last week. Inevitable next question: Rachel? Ryan and Rachel? They weren’t seated very close to each other at all at the SAGs. Full Story

Now that New New Spider-Man has been cast, Marvel and Sony are turning their eyes toward once again casting Peter Parker’s friends and family, beginning with Aunt May. First played by Rosemary Harris and more recently by Sally Field, Variety is reporting that Marisa Tomei has been offered the role in the three-boot, continuing the trend of Aunt May being played by very talented character actresses. Full Story

Ben Affleck and Anna Kendrick are in Atlanta working on a new movie together called The Accountant. He balances the books by day and is an assassin by night. When I first heard about this project, two words jumped in my head: Reindeer Games. That said, I trust Anna Kendrick. She wouldn’t be in a Reindeer Games, would she? Olivia Munn has a puppy and she’s been taking her puppy along with her to promote Mortdecai. Full Story

How awesome is the sight of George Clooney arriving on a boat? Look at this. Who does it better than this? Who owns the world better than this? (Maybe Brad Pitt, but it would be a bloody battle.)

Have received a lot of email the last couple of days about Ashley Judd’s face. She’s out in the open right now because she’s promoting her memoir All That Is Bitter & Sweet. A lot of explosive revelations about childhood abuse and how sh-tty it was growing up in that family. She’ll also be on Who Do You Think You Are on Friday. Full Story

Jessi Cruickshank reported on our etalk red carpet show that Marisa Tomei’s dress was some kind of 1950s gown that is so rare and so precious, they wouldn’t loan it to her so she had to buy it and it was tens of thousands of dollars, probably the only celebrity who had to do so last night. Full Story

Jacek and I flew to Toronto recently and watched Cyrus on the plane. By the end of it all he wanted to talk about was Marisa Tomei. I didn’t mind. She is crazy sexy in that movie. Crazy sexy. There’s something about the way she talks, a hint of a baby girl voice but not grating like SJP, she holds her body like you know there’s a freak underneath, and of course the face, perhaps not the most exquisite face in the business, but beauty doesn’t have to be intimidating, and oftentimes it’s the faces you find comfort in that turn you on the most. Full Story

Enough with the Academy rewarding strippers with a heart of gold. Every year there’s a stripper with a heart of gold nominated for something. Am over it. It’s done. Anyway, Marisa apparently dressed for her character at the BAFTAs – f*ck me hair and a showgirl dress that’s seen better days, like a girl who has seen better days, used hard and dried up… She’s been hanging out with Mickey Rourke too long, I think. Full Story
