Rumors are swirling in Hollywood that Jennifer Garner is in talks for a role in the remake of Arthur, starring Russell Brand. Jen would play Susan, the heiress Brand’s Arthur would have to marry to keep his fortune. Nick Nolte is in talks to play her father.
While I’d like to see The Dimples in a new Arthur, I find Russell Brand unbearable. He’s unfunny and a complete beating. I don’t know if Jen would be enough to get me in a theater. OK, I’m lying, I’d still go, but my opinion of Brand won’t change.
