Monday 7th April 2003: Company Confidential Update:
Just received the following information on Company Confidential
" DIRECTOR: Matt Damon
CAST:
Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Alec Baldwin, Robin Williams,
Jennifer Garner, Paul Sorvino and Wilford Brimley
BASED
ON: COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL, a novel by Tom McCrory
OFFICIAL
SITE: www.TomMcCrory.com
PREMISE/SYNOPSIS:
In this suspenseful corporate thriller from Tom McCrory, women
are objects and men are pawns at Campbell Industries in Los
Angeles. The ground-rules for survival in this hostile workplace
have long been established. If you value your paycheck, never
question authority. In this environment, "yes-men"
prosper, and for female employees, there is no such thing
as an unwelcome sexual advance.
"The
two lead characters are perfect for us," Affleck told
a source. Ben would play Scott Murphy, a young executive,
and Jennifer would play New Orleans bred beauty Lisa LeDoux.
With all the scandals going on in corporate America, Ben feels
the timing for this film couldn't be better, said the source.
The novel is set in Los Angeles and New Orleans. Ben will
modify the novel for the big screen, but said the love story
between his character and J.Lo's would remain intact."

Monday 7th April 2003: Die Hard 4: Die Hardest Update:
Producer
Arnold Rifkin has been talking about the possibility of making
a
Die Hard 4 with Bruce Willis. We want to do it, and
we are in active
pursuit, he said in an interview. We have probably
met with 30 writers,
and the biggest questions that you ask yourself, because one
day if we do do
it we'll be sitting here with you, and you're going to say
why did you this
movie? So, the reality is, who is he? It's eight years later.
What is he
doing, what happened when he was rebellious, he was never
within the system,
and you can't have him in the right place at the wrong time
again. What
would make sense to any of you that you would be willing to
accept that he's
now doing this again? Because he ain't leaping from buildings,
we've done
planes, we've done buildings. What is it you do? You don't
want to do
terrorists, because then we're going to sit here and you're
going to say,
'Wasn't that irresponsible of you to put terrorists back in
the White
House?' Or do you want to put terrorists in Yankee Stadium,
where the
biggest event is? And that's unfortunately what people, writers
come up
with. So we will do it if the right story comes."
