The spout getting a little wet?

After about 5 months of not pitching anything and 2 months of nothing new to report, we have finally pitched a brand new movie today. This one is yet again another drama, but something ripped from the headlines and something which hit close to where he lives within the last few years.

You will be seeing some CMP newbies but acting veterans in this film: the likes of Rowan Atkinson, famously portrayed as the goofy Mr. Bean taking on one of the most challenging roles of his career. It will also feature the surviving brother of the Belushi brothers: Jim, who has been seen in films which he's been able to show off some acting skills in 'Ghost Writer' and the unfortunately short-lived dramedy, 'The Defenders' and in this upcoming film in question, he will be playing a defense attorney. I just feel that he fits that sleazy defense attorney mold very well.

And if you think Kristen Stewart is the worst actress ever, I really hope you take into account her other films before she hit it big in Twilight. She is very good and in this film, she will show off reasons why you shouldn't count her out so fast.

So if you haven't made the connection yet, there's really no hope for you. A sleazy male defense attorney, a very young female...ripped from the headlines of the news..gee, what could it be? So you're probably all sick of hearing about it, but ripped from the headlines is not a new thing for Josh Collins to do and this one was bound to happen, why not see how it turns out before it hits Hollywood?

We are also excited for the upcoming release of 'Here Kitty, Kitty' an animated feline tale about a couple of domestic house cats getting stuck in the Australian Outback and their mission to get home. The film is actually inspired by a true story of a real cat who was accidentally locked in a shipping truck and brought across the country and managed to find its way back to its owner. The cats in Here Kitty, Kitty are thrust into a situation they're not used to, hopelessly lost.

You may shrug your shoulders, but it's another chance for Collins to show off the cute and fun movies for those who like cute animated films: it's been quite a few seasons since we've seen it and families with young kids aren't going to wait forever for the next cute animated movie to come out. If the story doesn't fancy you, we hope the great art direction and animation will keep you mesmerized. It's also a chance for us to show off yet again that Cats get the short end of the stick for roles in movies. They're the supporting animal, the big stupid buddy, the villain; even the cat in Bolt was just the supporting feline.

Collins has a thing for cats, as much as he likes dogs too, cats are just as adventurous and mysterious enough to get stories out of but rarely get the spotlight shined on them as carrying an entire feature. So we do hope you go see Here Kitty, Kitty: a story about friendship, love and the joy of licking yourself, mate!

just an example of what you're going to see in the art designs, something so good you won't notice it's computer animated!
