Mel Gibson And Jodie Foster Team Up For Beaver

Mel Gibson And Jodie Foster Team Up For Beaver

Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster are teaming up once again for the big screen.  It's been 15 years since the two actors have worked alongside one another and now E! News is confirming the actors have signed up for 'The Beaver'.

A quirky comedy drama along the lines of 2007's indie hit Lars and the Real Girl (or, depending on your humor, South Park), the Kyle Killen-penned script follows a down-and-out man (Gibson) who finds comfort wearing a beaver hand puppet. Foster will not only play his wife, but she'll also helm the film, marking her first directing effort since 1995's Home for the Holidays.

Sounds... interesting! :) 

The only reason why I would even give this one a shot is because Jodie doesn't do just any movie. It seems she waits until something feels right. 

Do you watch movies based on which actors are involved even if the plot doesn't really interest you?

It depends on the actor. There are a few actors I almost watch everything no matter what the film is about.

With Jodie involved I watch everything, no matter if she acts, directs or produces.

OK, funny. It's slightly ironic to me that a lesbian would be in a movie about beavers. LOL

Jodie chooses her movies, so usually i watch anything she's in, the same goes for Juliette Binoche.

Lars and the Real Girl was an excellent movie, so if this is in the same vein, I'm sure it will be great.

I'd see it. I love Jodie and she's fantastic with comedy. And Mel hasn't been in anything in a long while, has he? He's a good actor and I'd love to see him do something funny again.
