Now, I know we are all fed up with vampires and zombies, but what if the best of the best thespians play in such a film? Believe it or not, her Majesty Judi Dench (bow immediately) will join Ian McKellan in THE CURSE OF THE BUXOM STRUMPET. This zombie comedy will be set in 1713, in the town of Upper Trollop :) where a strange plague begins to turn the town's residents into flesh eating cannibals. Lord Fortitude must then lead the survivors in an escape to survive. Judi's character will be called Mrs. Halfpint, and the cast will also include Gillian Anderson.

Well, if you like musical, glitz and Broadway you will surely like NBC's upcoming show SMASH. Featuring gorgeous Katharine McPhee and her stunning voice, the new show, coming up this Fall, will celebrate the beauty and heartbreak of the Broadway theater as it follows a cross-section of dreamers and schemers who all have one common desire - to be a SMASH. The series centers on a desire
to create a Broadway musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe, written by the successful songwriter played by WILL & GRACE's Debra Messing. The cast also includes Angelica Huston as a tenacious producer, Jack Davenport as a brilliant director and Megan Hilty who plays the experienced rival to Katharine McPhee's inexperienced but talented character. The whole show was an idea of Steven Spielberg and will feature lots of famous songs in each episode. Check out a short video.
