New starting date for ‘The Revisionist’

Listen to excerpts from ‘Colin Fischer’ read by Jesse Eisenberg
Encyclopedia Brown from the screenwriting duo behind X-Men: First Class and Thor!
Colin Fischer cannot stand to be touched. He does not like the color blue. He needs index cards to recognize facial expressions. But Colin is Wayne Connelly’s best—and only—hope of proving his innocence after Wayne is accused of blowing up a birthday cake in the school cafeteria. Colin and Wayne quickly set off on a journey to prove Wayne’s innocence, but neither realizes just how far their investigation will take them or that it will force Colin to consider the greatest mystery of all: what other people are thinking and feeling.
Colin Fischer is a modern-day Sherlock Holmes. He’s a boy with Asperger’s syndrome who sees clues in the unlikeliest of places, and whom readers will root for right up until the case is solved . . . and beyond.

‘Night Moves’ news
Producers of eco-terrorist thriller go underground near Galesville Dam
AZALEA — Geese honked overhead as a man called for quiet while actress Dakota Fanning sat at a picnic table at Chief Miwaleta Park, conspiring in the dark to blow up Galesville Dam.
A crew has taken over the Douglas County park this week to film an eco-terrorism thriller, “Night Moves.”
Filming began Monday and is scheduled to continue today and possibly for a few more days. Other scenes will be shot in the Medford area.
Fanning and co-stars Jesse Eisenberg and Peter Sarsgaard play the eco-terrorists determined to blow up a dam. The county will receive $2,000 a day.
Fanning portrays a wealthy young woman who finances the operation and develops a romantic interest in Eisenberg’s character. Sarsgaard, who appeared in last year’s “Green Lantern,” plays the bomb maker.
Tall trees with a thick canopy and the fading light lent an eerie feeling Tuesday evening as the Hollywood stars appeared to plot the destruction of Galesville Dam in the distance.
The company filming the movie, Tipping Point Productions of Portland, has operated in stealth mode, providing no details about its filming schedule and discouraging visitors from watching.
The company, however, declined to pay the county an extra fee to close the park to the public. Parks Director Gary Groth said today movie producers said it wasn’t necessary. The county would have issued a notice if it were putting the park off-limits to the public, he said. “The park is not closed.”
Groth apologized for volunteer park caretaker Ron Marriott threatening to call the sheriff’s office if a News-Review reporter didn’t leave the park. Marriott was with film producer Neil Kopp, who said his company’s permit gave it authority to close the park. Groth said that’s not the case.
Last week, during a scouting trip, Kopp said the film was a low-budget production and that his company did not have the money to pay to have the park closed to visitors.
Following a dinner break, filming resumed with Fanning and her co-stars jumping aboard a boat named “Night Moves” to reach the dam.

Collectively, their talents have garnered an astonishing twelve Tony Award nominations (including two wins) and ten Academy Award nominations (including one win).

Jesse Eisenberg, Vanessa Redgrave to Star Off-Broadway in Eisenberg’s ‘The Revisionist’
NEW YORK — Vanessa Redgrave will star alongside playwright Jesse Eisenberg in the world premiere of The Revisionist, his second work to be produced off-Broadway by Rattlestick Playwrights Theater.
Directed by Kip Fagan, who also staged Eisenberg’s previous play, Asuncion, the new production begins previews Feb. 6, with official opening set for Feb. 21 at the Cherry Lane Theatre in Greenwich Village.
Eisenberg’s character is a blocked sci-fi writer attempting to escape his problems in Poland. A 75-year-old cousin played by Redgrave latches onto him as a means of connecting with her distant American family, gradually revealing details of their complex postwar past.
An Oscar nominee for best actor for his role in The Social Network, Eisenberg recently appeared in Woody Allen’s To Rome With Love.
Redgrave’s most recent New York stage role was in the 2010 Broadway revival of Driving Miss Daisy, opposite James Earl Jones. Her new movie Song for Marion, in which she stars with Terence Stamp, Gemma Arterton and Christopher Eccleston, premiered this month at the Toronto International Film Festival.

‘Night Moves’ news
New Jesse Eisenberg Film May Be Plagiarized
If a new lawsuit is successful, Jesse Eisenberg and Dakota Fanning’s new project, Night Moves, set to start filming next month, may never even make it off the ground. The plaintiff, American Pyscho production company Edward R. Pressman Films, argues that Night Moves ripped off eco-vigilante novel The Monkey Wrench Gang, which Pressman owns the film rights to. (Catfish duo Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman have already been tapped to direct its adaptation.) The evidence, according to the Hollywood Reporter: Both feature ammonium fertilizer-laden boats headed towards dams and beer-guzzling bombmakers. However, Night Moves’ bombmaker is a former U.S. Marine, while the books’ features former Green Beret. Stay tuned for more differences, courtesy of the Night Moves lawyers.
