Hailee Steinfeld to Play Sleeping Beauty

Mar 30, 2011 @ 12:45 pm

Ever since Hailee Steinfeld shot to stardom with her Oscar-nominated role in True Grit, we were waiting with bated breath to find out what the former Guess model’s next project would be. Turns out, 14-year-old is heading to fairytale land! Steinfeld signed up for a new Sleeping Beauty movie, which will be a remake of the classic, reimagined to tell the tale from within her dream world and she has to “find her way out,” Deadline reports. And this isn’t the only enchanted legend to be remade, as new versions of Hansel & Gretel, Snow White, and Peter Pan are also in the works. While Steinfeld’s project is still pending—a studio has yet to buy the script, though she will star in it if sold—we took a look back at her rise on the red carpet, from rising newbie to style star. See more amazing photos of Hailee Steinfeld in the gallery.

Isaac Mizrahi Appeared on Cake Boss Last Night!

Mar 29, 2011 @ 5:21 pm

Isaac Mizrahi knows the perfect accessory to complement a spring dresscake! The designer appeared on last night’s fashion-themed episode of Cake Boss, where he tasked pastry chef Buddy Valastro with making seven fashion-inspired confections for his fall 2011 runway show, which filmed February 17th. Mizrahi wanted his models to carry the cakes down the catwalk, and the show’s dessert geniuses decided to make them out of styrofoam so they would be light enough to carry without toppling over. In case you missed it, catch a preview of Mizrahi critiquing Valastro’s sugary creations here. TLC will also replay the “Designer, Deadlines & Diagnosis” episode throughout the season. Get the latest Cake Boss schedule here.

Jennifer Garner to Play Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple

Mar 29, 2011 @ 3:48 pm

Jennifer Garner is going to play Agatha Christie’s most famous amateur detective, Miss Marple! While Christie wrote the character as an elderly woman living in the fictional English village of St. Mary Mead, Disney is revamping the story to feature a younger, present-day Marple, Deadline reports. (Wardrobe update!) Marple was first played on the big screen in 1961 by Dame Margaret Rutherford, and Angela Lansbury took over the role in the 1980 film The Mirror Crack’d, which also starred Elizabeth Taylor. So far it’s unclear whether Garner’s film will be based on a particular Christie novels, but we do know that the screenwriter is Mark Frost, whose previous credits include Fantastic Four and TV’s Twin Peaks. We’re excited to see the Alias star put her sleuthing skills to work again!

Katie Holmes Hypes The Kennedys, Jake Gyllenhaal Flies Solo and More!

Mar 29, 2011 @ 3:01 pm

In Hollywood, Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise made a red carpet appearance at the premiere of The Kennedys, where Holmes remembered getting into character to play legendary first lady Jacqueline Kennedy. “The wardrobe department worked very hard to re-create a lot of  Mrs. Kennedy’s iconic looks, including a hand-painted gown,” said Holmes, who looked every inch the style icon herself in a knitted lace dress from the Ralph Lauren Collection. “It was a lot of fun to do all of the fittings.” Across town, Jake Gyllenhaal arrived solo to a screening of Source Code but soon met up with onscreen flame Michelle Monaghan. In New York City, Michelle Williams sparked Chanel envy when she walked the press line at a screening of Meek’s Cutoff. See more photos from last night’s parties in the gallery.
