Author Mentally Casts Film Version Of Unfinished Novel

Author Mentally Casts Film Version Of Unfinished Novel
From the guy who wrote the book on writing the book about making the movie, it's "Cast The Movie Before You Write The Book" - available now in bookstores everywhere!

WASHINGTON (CAP) - This week freelance writer Miles Kramer confirmed that he has mentally cast actress Rachel McAdams to play the female romantic lead in the film adaptation of his new novel, which is as yet untitled.

"I've only written a few pages of the book so far," he told industry reporters. "But I really think McAdams will absolutely shine in the role of Alice - or Dakota - not yet sure on the name, who will be the love interest of the main character, Devon or Michael. Or maybe Brad?"

When asked about casting for his male lead, Kramer admitted that he was still trying to decide between Brad Pitt and Edward Norton.

"If I went with Pitt, it might be weird for the character's name to also be Brad," he noted. "But then again, it might be kind of cool. Still, I think Edward Norton would be a pretty good choice as well. I guess it will all depend on how the character develops as I keep writing."

Kramer added that he was confident that his novel was going to translate exceptionally well to the big screen once it was finished.

"I'm pretty sure it's going to be optioned right away," he said. "It's really going to touch on a lot of issues that men and women struggle with when it comes to life and love in the modern world. It's also set in Seattle, which is such a great city to film in."

As of press time, Kramer had set his five-page novel aside and was playing Minesweeper on his laptop to "help clear his head and get those creative juices flowing."

Justice Dept. Seized Cosmo Records Seeking Sex Tips
Justice Dept. Seized Cosmo Records Seeking Sex Tips

WASHINGTON (CAP) - In a sweeping and unusual move, the Justice Department has secretly obtained two months' worth of telephone records of journalists working for Cosmopolitan magazine, uncovering in the process hundreds of secret sex tips beyond those published in every issue of the magazine for the last 27 years.

According to Cosmo editor-in-chief Joanna Coles - author of How To Set His Man Bits On Fire, Possibly Literally - federal authorities obtained cellular, office and home telephone records of five individual sex tip reporters and both the Sex Tip Editor and Deputy Sex Tip Editor. She called the Justice Department's actions a "massive and unprecedented intrusion" into sex-tip-gathering activities.

"Which ironically enough would also describe many of our sex tips," she noted.

WASILLA, Alaska (CAP) - As scientists continue to monitor recent explosions and seismic activity in Alaska's Cleveland Volcano, former Gov. Sarah Palin has informed local media outlets that she can indeed see the volcano from her porch, but that her family is safe and sound.

"Oh, yah, plain as day - it's practically in my back yard," Palin said as she offered chewing tobacco to reporters on her front lawn. "Todd and I were out back rustling up some grouse for dinner when we seen the ash and felt the rumblin'.

"So's I thought to myself, There goes ole Cleveland again!" she added. "But then I started yelling for a Code Pompei because who knows what was gonna happen!"

Disney has crowned its newest official princess, a somewhat short and stocky stringy-haired character named Frumpy Fran. "The life and accomplishments of all the other princesses are way too unachievable for little girls," said a spokesperson. "Fran is basically the princess from the projects, which more girls can relate to." «» A local auction house is accepting bids on a rock that came from astronaut Neil Armstrong's shoe. "No, it's not a moon rock or anything like that," said a spokesperson. "I think it got stuck in his shoe while he was working in his garden. But what a conversation piece!" «» Investigators in Boston have uncovered some key evidence at the site of Monday's explosions: a piece of intact resolve in the debris. "We're still determining the origins of the resolve, but one thing's certain," said an FBI source. "This shit wasn't made in China. This is 100% pure American resolve." «» The U.S. Supreme Court has handed down a decision on same-sex marriages, voting 5-4 that "all marriage is gay." Writing for the majority, Justice Anthony Kennedy questioned why anyone would voluntarily choose a situation that involves dealing with in-laws on a regular basis, noting that "having in-laws is so queer." «» The UN has awarded North Korea Most Angry Nation status, elevating the Asian state alongside the likes of Syria, Iran and Israel. The new standing affords Kim Jong Un complimentary anger management counseling as well as a coupon for a free hug from a world leader of his choice. «» Tiger Woods has accepted Sergio Garcia's apology for his racist fried chicken comment, saying, "It's okay, because I actually really like fried chicken.

"I'm telling you right now, plus sizes means plus prices," he said. "But I think if anyone can make fat people cool, it's me." «» With the White House under fire from numerous directions, press secretary Jay Carney dropped his usual demeanor to tell reporters to "fucking back the fuck off" and that he was "sick of answering dumb-ass questions."
