Yes, I can see it.
Ellen DeGeneres as Mother Nature - it’s believable in a funny, quirky kind of way.
For the first time in almost 10 years (HAS IT BEEN THAT LONG?), Ellen has taken on a new movie role where we can actually see her. The last time she starred in a film was EDtv and that was in 1999. The comedian has lent her voice to Finding Nemo and Dog Show, but this is the first live-action movie Ellen has signed on for in quite some time. She must really like the script!
Ellen is due to "play the human representation of Earth’s life-giver in a new project from Walden Media – the studio behind hit children’s films Charlotte’s Web and the Chronicles of Narnia franchise".
When asked what she thought about her upcoming project, Ellen said
"I’ve always wanted to control the weather."
The as-yet-untitled project is being penned by Sex and the City writer Jenny Bicks.
Can’t wait to see it!
In other news, how cute are Portia de Rossi and Ellen in that pic?!
Portia & Ellen were adorable on Ellen’s show on Monday. They were SO sweet and they just GLOW when they are around each other. There’s nothing fake about those two. They seem so genuinely nice and SO in love with each other.
That’s awesome! Sounds like the perfect role for Ellen. They are the cutest couple, not to mention Portia is *gorgeous*!! I’m happy for them; I’m definitely a gay rights activist. It doesn’t matter who you love, all that matters is that you love someone.
Is that a tv show? I used to watch the old one with Bob Eubanks all the time. It was hilarious. Portia and Ellen do make a cute couple.
