Reese Witherspoon is set to star alongside Jason Segel in Sex Tape, a new rom-com from Sony Pictures. According to Deadline.com, the pair are the studio’s first choice for the lead couple in the film, with Nick Stoller in talks to direct.

The film, which was acquired by the studio in a seven-figure deal in June, follows a married couple who take a night off from family life to spice things up by making a sex tape.

However, the following morning they notice the tape is missing and start a desperate search to find it.

Witherspoon is also slated to star in This Means War next year. The action comedy will also feature Tom Hardy, Chris Pine and Chelsea Handler.

Meanwhile, Bad Teacher star Segel is also due to appear in The Five-Year Engagement and This Is Forty next year.

It’d be his second hook up with Stoller in recent times, after the pair wrote the new Muppets move together.

Not sure if this is legit.. I will keep you updated

‘This Means War’ hits theater’s Presidents Day February 17th, 2011

Here’s one way to make Reese Witherspoon sexier: Ask her to don some leather and bare some flesh.

At least that was the strategy behind This Means War, a spy thriller due in February that posits what would happen if two super-agents fell for the same woman.

The movie, whose trailer hits theaters Friday, features Chris Pine and Tom Hardy as spies who work well enough together — as long as they’re killing people, not courting them. The movie is directed by McG (Charlie’s Angels, Terminator Salvation). Chelsea Handler and Angela Bassett also star.

Pine plays an Ethan Hunt-style spy, an American bruiser who has more fight in him than finesse. Hardy is more of a James Bond agent: smooth, quick with a quip and heavy on the British dryness.

“They get to run around to exotic places, and everything is great until they meet a chick,” says McG, who adds that the film is in the vein of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and the Mission: Impossible and Bond movies.

McG says he is a longtime fan of Witherspoon, an Oscar winner for 2005′s Johnny Cash bio Walk the Line. But he says her provocative side has long been ignored.

When he offered the role, “I told her, ‘You’re America’s sweetheart,’” McG says. “‘Women love you. Men … like you. I want men to covet you.’ She took a deep breath and said, ‘Go for it.’”

That meant dressing her in some tight-fitting spy get-ups and having her lip-wrestle covert operatives.

“Those are really her legs, those are really her abs,” McG says. “That’s her making out with Chris Pine and Tom Hardy.”

McG says that while he has always considered Witherspoon a beauty, the two had to “establish trust” before she agreed to lose any garments.

“I love strong female characters, and she had seen Charlie’s Angels,” he says. “Between her physical readiness and the manner we photographed her, you get a sexy takeaway.

“The audience is the beneficiary.”

McG is catching Pine and Hardy in steep ascent. Pine starred in last year’s hit Unstoppable, and Hardy appears in next summer’s Batman installment The Dark Knight Rises. McG expects that their chemistry — and one of the movie’s messages — will lure women, who are not always the biggest spy fans.

“Men,” McG says, “will disintegrate into boys when a woman is involved.”

Jeff Nichols’ second film, the Michael Shannon/Jessica Chastain drama Take Shelter, has been gaining tremendous buzz, including winning the Crtitcs Week award at the Cannes Film Festival. The promotion of this possible Oscar contender hasn’t stopped Nichols from thinking about his next project.

According to Deadline, Nichols’ next film will be titled Mud. Matthew McConaughey and Reese Witherspoon are currently in talks to star as the two leads. Tye Sheridan, the boy in The Tree of Life, is said to also star.

Mud tells the story of a friendship between a fugitive (McConaughey) and a 14-year-old boy (Sheridan), who helps him hide from the law as Mud tries to reunite with his one and only love, Juniper (Witherspoon).

There is no currently scheduled release date for Mud, but we will let you know once the news breaks.

Reese Witherspoon will be in Disney’s “Wish List”. “Wish List” is a new Disney comedy movie that at first was to be about a man. The movie was re-written for Witherspoon.

The Disney comedy is about a very imaginative little girl who makes ten wishes at a wishing well. The coin doesn’t reach the bottom of the well so the little girl’s wishes don’t come true. The little girl grows up to become an aspiring career woman. Twenty-five years later the coin falls to the bottom of the wishing well. The woman has to act on the consequences of a little girl’s ten wishes coming true all at once.

This movie sounds like a wistful and charming movie. The little girl probably had some silly wishes and some serious wishes she yearned for. When the little girl grew up, she may have forgotten the silly wishes but I think she still remembered her yearning. The silly wishes were probably embarrassing and hard to explain. If the little girl’s wish that she longed for came true even twenty-five years later, it would most likely be welcomed and cherished by the career woman. There is the possibility that “Wish List” will be a happy and heart-warming movie.

Public Appearances > Events from 2011 > 04-17-11 – “Water For Elephants” New York Premiere

Robert Pattinson, Reese Witherspoon and Christoph Waltz have all been revealed in their period finery in a new shot from movie Water For Elephants.

Coming courtesy of Algonquin Books, the latest run of Sara Gruen’s novel features a new sleeve with snaps from the movie – which has given us our first sneaky glimpse at the stars of the film adap.

Most impressive is R-Pattz’s tamed mane, with not a hint of the Edward Cullens about him. Of course, Witherspoon’s going for gold with that wavy crop (there’s definitely some Marilyn Monroe mixed in there), while Waltz is happy to sit and simmer with Oscar-winning gravitas.

Water For Elephants follows Pattz’s veterinary student, who looks after the animals of a travelling circus during the Great Depression. There, he meets Marlena (Witherspoon) and her twisted animal trainer husband August (Waltz).

I Am Legend helmer Francis Lawrence directs. The film opens on 22 April, 2011.
