Good news for all you Ender’s Game fans out there as there is finally some forward motion on the film. Ender’s Game has had a long journey getting from a novel to the big screen and finally has a production blog. Even though there is only a single image posted so far, producer Roberto Orci promises to have exclusives from the film over the next year. This would include guest appearances by well known cast members.
For those of you unfamiliar with the Orson Scott Card book series, here is a synopsis. Set in Earth’s future, the plot presents an imperiled humankind who have barely survived two conflicts with the Formics, an insect like alien species that are usually called “Buggers”. These aliens act much like gigantic super smart Earth ants and are very protective of their queen. In preparation for an anticipated third invasion, an international fleet maintains a school to find and train future fleet commanders.

Paul Rudd and Zach Galifianakis may be the new comedy duo, since they’re following up the upcoming Dinner for Schmucks, with the newly announced film Will, written by Demetri Martin (the lead in Taking Woodstock and Comedy Central show Important Things With Demetri Martin). The Hollywood Reporter reports that the actors have signed on with Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton directing, the people behind Little Miss Sunshine.
The movie is set in a world where people’s lives are written out by heavenly scribes. Rudd’s character one day wakes up to find that his scribe (played by Galifianakis) has stopped writing his life. So Rudd’s character has to work his way through the story without any guidance and “ending up on a journey to fulfill his hidden potential.”
Paul Rudd, of course has been around and starred in great comedies from Clueless to The 40 Year Old Virgin and last year’s I Love You, Man. Galifianakis really popped onto the mainstream radar last year with The Hangover, and has landed a number of roles including Youth in Revolt; Up in the Air; the Robert Downey, Jr. comedy, Due Date; and the planned The Hangover 2.
