Alex Eyes "Back-up Plan"

[SirenSong]

Mark your calendars, everyone! January 2010!

Which may, in fact, beat WHiteout to theaters...

Heck, it might even beat Whiteout to DVD release!

Whiteout, btw, has been moved back to 9/25 now, from what I've heard.

Sounds like a done deal!!

From etonline:

ET breaks the news that "Moonlight" actor Alex O'Loughlin has been cast to star opposite Jennifer Lopez in CBS Films' feature 'The Back-Up Plan.'
The romantic comedy features Lopez as Zoe -- a woman who embarks on a journey to motherhood using artificial insemination, only to meet a possible Mr. Right named Stan (O'Loughlin) on the day of her insemination.
The couple begins dating, with Zoe confusing their early relationship by hiding her pregnancy. After she reveals her secret, Stan unexpectedly sticks by her side. But as the birth approaches, the pressures of their new relationship and her impending motherhood could split them apart.
'The Back-Up Plan,' is the first feature from CBS Films and will be directed by "Six Feet Under"'s Alan Poul. The movie is set to begin filming in Los Angeles in May and will premiere in theaters in January 2010.
You can also catch O'Loughlin in upcoming films 'Whiteout' and 'August Rush.'

You have made my spring Siren... my entire spring.

And I dunno what it means for 3R... but it means peeps will know and love this actor... cause he's gonna be so amazing as... Stan? Unfortunate name, but he will rock it...

Yes, Stan is a little old-fashioned. It's my grandfather's name, for Pete's sake. Ah well, if they'd left it up to us, his name would likely have ended up Mr. Sexyman.

Hmmm, is your grandfather around 85 years old? Cause Alex plays 85 very well...

So, we start with CM in April and then move on to a TR in the fall followed by Whiteout in September and this movie in January. Wow! An Alex overdose.
He is surely "The One to Watch" this year

Okay...this is creepy! My grandfather is EXACTLY 85 years old!!!

[redwinter101]

Is he unusually youthful, Kelly?

And, dc, you are SO right. (Kudos to Suz for spotting it first!!)

When I had sirensong make up my banner, I left all the artwork in her capable hands. The only think I knew I wanted was a statement that would say that 2009 was Alex's year. "The One to Watch" was my only contribution to the banner. And yes, it does seem to be very prophetic, which is exactly what I was hoping and praying for when the idea struck! Thank you, Juli, for making the banner come to life!

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! What wonderful news for Alex!!! From the ET article, it definitely sounds like a done deal!

Kel~

P.S. While I'm absolutely ecstatic about this me, I can't help but feel a tad sad as well. A film like this could really boost his exposure...and, I don't know, it seems like every new fan he gets will take him just a wee bit further from being "our Alex." However, from what I've seen of Alex, he seems like he will always have a special place for his original fans...that would be us. And that says something very special about him.

It is kind of sad in a way. My family refers to him as 'Joanie's little vampire' and I guess this means he's 'growing up' to be a big star, as we hoped but still . . .

But what the heck - Stan's the man!

Well, both you and SS will need to be updating your super cool avis... there will be a doctor and a... Stan... to drop into the mix before long.

And may I echo Red... I can only ever just echo Red... thank you Susan for bringing this utter ray of sunshine into our NIGHT!!!!!

Wow...yes he is! He doesn't look a day over 75. Creepy, huh?

Ok... ew. I was just being sarcastic... sorry...

I know you were.

Does this mean we have super-duper prophetic powers, Suz??

If so......I have a very specific banner that I would like to attempt next....

Whiteout, btw, has been moved back to 9/25 now, from what I've heard.

At this rate, Back-up Plan will end up being released before Whiteout.

[Fleur de Lisa]

Marc or Alex, Alex or Marc, Fleur you better have a "back-up plan" on this.

Let's just say that, although it doesn't carry quite the heft of J Lo's, the fleur derriere is impressive in it's own right. So, I will be more than able to "back up" Alex!!!
