Couple’s Retreat star Kristen Bell has just signed on for a new role, and it’s in a musical. A lot of you may not know this but Veronica Mars has some serious vocal talent, and she will showcase it in an upcoming film opposite Christina Aguilera. According to THR, Bell will co-star in Burlesque, a musical that will be directed by Steve Antin.
This week the Bora Bora comedy, Couples Retreat with Jon Favreau, Vince Vaughn, Malin Akerman, Kristin Davis, Jason Bateman, Kristen Bell, Faizon Love and Kali Hawk hits theaters. With so many comedians all jam packed into one film, I’m sure you’re all looking forward to seeing your favorite actor strut their stuff in a laugh out loud comedy. Sadly, it’s not that movie. This is definitely a film that was more fun to shoot than it was to watch.
Check out the review below…
Time to get up tight and sarcastic with two of the co-stars of director Peter Billingsley’s comedy, Couples Retreat. Out of the four couples in the film, Kristen Bell and Jason Bateman are the stress filled business couple who convince their friends to go on a trip to Bora Bora to save their relationships.
I don’t know if I would consider this an interview as much as a Kristen Bell and Jason Bateman comedy sketch with all the sarcasm you could possibly shove into one conversation. Both Bell and Bateman seemed to sit down in character, ready to tackle any questions we had with a quick comeback and a power-point projector.

Director Mark Steven Johnson (Daredevil, Ghost Rider) has decided to try his hand at a rom-com starring Kristen Bell and Josh Duhamel. As much as both actors are entertaining and will be fun to watch in some way or another, there is nothing unique about this film yet, aside from the fact that they’re promoting Katy Perry and Jason Mraz in their trailer. Anyone else see something odd about that?

A new trailer has been released for the upcoming CGI animated film, Astro Boy. It’s the same video that premiered at this year’s Comic-Con, and I can tell you from that experience it’s pretty awesome. The film stars Freddie Highmore, Kristen Bell, Donald Sutherland, and oddly enough Nicolas Cage. Why is he in everything lately? They’ve already released a couple of teasers for Astro Boy but this one is the real deal.

Earlier this year, there was talk about a Veronica Mars movie. The creator, Rob Thomas, was hoping to get the ball rolling, but it seems like it hit a dead end. This is a sad day for Veronica Mars fans. Creator, Rob Thomas, and Kristen Bell were on board and eager to do a film, but it seems Warner Brothers felt differently. Warner Bros decided there isn’t enough of an interest among audiences to warrant a movie.
Recently, Kristen Bell said about the possibility of a Veronica Mars movie…
In May of 2007, a good friend of mine got to attend the 30th anniversary celebration of Star Wars at the L.A. Convention Center. Fans were treated to some early footage of a little film that represented the true brotherhood of the Star Wars community. That film was Fanboys, and for almost two years now it has been avoiding theaters like the plague. If your like me, you’ve been following the roller coaster of drama that has surrounded the film and it’s distributors, The Weinstein Co. Fanboys release date has been pushed back several times within the past year and the cause seems to change each time. Rumors of storyline issues, re-shoots, and production problems make me wonder if business took the pleasure out of the Fanboy experience?
