Meryl Streep, David Frankel Re-Team On ‘Great Hope Springs’

COMMENTS (16)

• Dear Ms. Streep: I’ve worked on your films and got an up close and personal look at you, my heroine in film, tv and stage. Can you please set an example in the industry that every time you sign on to a film you take 3-5 unknowns and make sure they get speaking roles right along side you?? It’s nice that you keep getting cast, but we are all out here, working hard and chomping at the bit to have a career such as yours. You could help greatly in that area. If other stars see you doing that, maybe they will do it too. Thank you.

• No, not Tim Allen, not Kevin Kline. Get a hunky Aussie around her age, a real man, something American male actors are not.

• I think Jeremy Irons would be good. It fits with the age.

• Only one man for the job — the most GORGEOUS, SEXY silver fox in Hollywood: John Slattery. Also, he is incredibly talented. But if they insist upon a “movie star,” then Ed Harris (also a gorgeous, talented, sexy, mature man.)

• Why not David Strathairn?. They’ve worked together before as a couple on the outs–let’s see it happen again (except without all that river rafting and gun-fire).

  More Meryl is good for everyone. Love this news!

• John Slattery is the sexiest man in Hollywood. Great actor too. Their chemistry would be through the roof.

• Dear Dyro,
  Could you please stop trying to make Hollywood a Socialized State?
  If you want to work, get your butt off the computer, find a way to meet the casting director for this film and get an audition. Wow, the director with your talents and earn the work. Nobody owes you anything. That’s why they call it, “Work.”
  Now, stop reading, get out the door and… Go get ‘Em!

• I vote for Robert Redford as your husband and my father in the film.
