Just trying to get everyone caught on some new movie roles for Elizabeth. Read below:

New Movie: “What Was I Thinking?”

Actresses Leslie Mann and Elizabeth Banks will explore the comic side of bad relationships in “What Was I Thinking?,” a movie based on the nonfiction book of the same name.

The film will revolve around a woman who gets dumped during her engagement party. Her friends spring into action and whisk her away on a ski trip for healing and hedonism. Threading through their adventures on the trip are four flashbacks dealing in “worst ex-boyfriend” tales.

Mann (who happens to be married to Apatow) would play a woman who dates a lot but never seems to have serious relationships, while Banks is a woman on the rebound. Two other lead female parts have yet to be cast. (Source)

New Movie: “Forever 21″

Elizabeth Banks will star in and produce the workplace comedy “Forever 21.”

Mike Culbert and Mike Pellettieri wrote the screenplay for the DreamWorks Studios project, which is now looking for a director.

Banks’ most recent big-screen role was in the horror film “The Uninvited.” In 2008 she appeared in “W.,” “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” and “Role Models.” She has just signed on to star with Leslie Mann in the comedy “What Was I Thinking?” (Source)

Rosamund Pike and Radha Mitchell have joined Bruce Willis in Disney’s The Surrogates.

Variety reports the film is directed by Jonathan Mostow from a screenplay by Michael Ferris and John Brancato. It is based on the graphic novel by Robert Venditti and Brett Weldele. The film is scheduled to start shooting this month in Boston with Mandeville’s David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman producing with Max Handelman and Elizabeth Banks.

The film is set in the near future where humans live in isolation and interact through the use of surrogate robots – which are designed to be better looking versions of the humans.

Elizabeth Banks is F*cking Seth Rogan!
Written by on February 26th, 2008

Oh man, everybody is fucking everybody these days and it’s barely as exciting as it sounds. These celebrity fueled musical bits inspired by Sarah Silverman’s clever little “I’m Fucking Matt Damon” video and her boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel’s response, “I’m fucking Ben Affleck” will probably be poppin’ up everywhere.

Now, in what appears to be a viral marketing effect for Kevin Smith’s new movie Zack and Miri Make a Porno, Kevin Smith, Elizabeth Banks and Seth Rogan have created a parody video with a couple laughs you haven’t already had. Most noticeable, the last scene with Kevin Smith and M. Night Shyamalan’s director credit.

Jason Mewes and ex-porn-star Traci Lords make brief appearances.
