No Day But November 11

Did you guys know about this? Chris Columbus of all people is directing a film of RENT, to be released on November 11 of this year. Other directors previously tapped for the job apparently included Spike Lee, Baz Luhrmann, Rob Marshall, and Sam Mendes. It's in production right now, and stars the original Broadway cast (each of them now ten years too old for their roles), with one notable exception: Rosario Dawson in the role of Mimi. Rowwrr. Why are all the most beautiful people in the world composites of like eight different racial backgrounds (viz. Carly Kriwanek)? Because good things happen when you spread genes apart, that's why.
