Bewitched 2: The Transformation of Darrin












From what little I have been told, Will Ferrell and Nicole Kidman are looking to revive the franchise with this movie. The last one Bewitched Ferrell and Kidman played actors who portrayed Darrin and Samantha, in the upcoming film, they will be Darrin and Sam.

If you ever watched the TV show you may remember that Darrin's character changed appearance as 2 different actors, Dick York and Dick Sargent, in the role. The new movie suggests that since the 2 actors were always considered Darrin, there is a certain metamorphosis that took place that caused the character's reconfiguration. Will Ferrell will begin as Darrin followed by David Hewlett as Darrin.

And there is the possibillity of an additional change in another character's appearance.

Michael Bub(b)le


Celebrity crooner Michael Buble dropped a "B" from his surname changing its pronunciation from the grin-inducing Bubble to the more suave sounding Buble.
The recent confirmation from unidentified staff came as no surprise to journalists who have suspected such for some time.
Be it so, we have now learned from other sources, it was the singer's deep drive to achieve success without piggybacking on his father's commercial acclaim that was the primary catalyst for the metamorphosis.

It is the oldest story in Hollywood, comedic actor to star in drama, however, all the critics are raving about Andy's transformation to former comic Charles Nelson Reilly.

Sources state that Dick will re-create all phases of the late comedian's career including his stint on Match Game with Sigourney Weaver as Brett Sommers, Ray Romano as Jamie Farr, Robin Williams as Richard Dawson, Hillary Swank as Fannie Flagg, and Dave Chappelle as Nipsey Russell.
Although a supporting Oscar buzz has been in the air for Williams and Swank, sources say they do not take away anything from Dick.
