Ben Affleck Is Also Not That Into You
There are still about seven people in Hollywood who haven't been cast in Just Not That Into You, but it can only be a matter of time. The latest big name to join the uber-starry movie is Ben Affleck.

The comedy about the differing ways in which men and women perceive the intentions of the opposite sex, based on the book of the same name by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tucillo (both former writers on Sex and the City) already boasts the following in its cast (deep breath): Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Connelly, Kevin Connolly, Scarlett Johansson, Bradley Cooper, Ginnifer Goodwin and Justin Long. Kitchen Sink is still in negotiations. The film will be directed by Ken Kwapis (License To Wed).

Affleck has been taking a bit of a break from acting recently to direct his first feature, Gone Baby Gone. The drama about the kidnapping of a young girl, which stars Affleck's brother and rising star Casey, is set for release in the UK later this year.

RE:
I quite like Affleck, he's made some dumb decisions with his movies but he's never deserved the universal backlash against him. I heard Gone Baby Gone is very good so good for him.   Plus....he was DA BOMB in Phantoms!! ... Read More

Likewise
It looks quite decent from the trailer. And I like the way it doesn't make a big point of Affleck being director. Although that's probably just an awareness that that would put a lot of people off! ... Read More
