Nina Gold, acclaimed casting director, has a clear view on the subject: All the fuss about Ellen...

All the fuss about Ellen Page being cast as Jane Eyre for a BBC film is misplaced. I think she's got the part because she's a really good actress and the producers must think she's the best person for the part. Not to cast on the basis of her being the wrong nationality would be mad. Page has shown her range not only in Juno, but also in her breakout role in Hard Candy, where...

Scarlett Johansson joins the latest group of actors in taking on musical projects armed with plenty of attitude, if not always vocal chops. THE VERY last scene of last year's hit film "Juno" pointed toward one small path in music's future: star Ellen Page sitting on a stoop, singing a song by obscure boy-girl folk duo the Moldy Peaches. Her leading man, Michael Cera, sang along, but he...

Ellen Page is probably hoping to avoid being typecast as the wise-cracking, deadpan youngster like the character she played in the Academy Award winning comedy Juno by taking on a period piece. She'll be starring in yet another iteration of Jane Eyre . For the love of all that is holy, is it really necessary to remake this story yet AGAIN? If you look up "Jane Eyre" on IMDb, then you'll...
