Not sure that Will Farrell's agent is going to have an easy job after this news. Forbes claim that Farrells films now earn back only $3.29 for every $1 paid into his bank account.
Compare this to someone like Shia LeBeouf – reportedly the world's most bankable star – who earns a $160 return on every dollar spent on him.
Tom Cruise's still seems to be bankable and is more than double Farrells although came in at number 6 in the overpaid stakes.]
Only one woman, Drew Barrymore, was in the list. Looks like this means that female actors are providing a lot better value than men.

Mildly disappointing news that Larry Fessenden (Habit, The Last Winter) is likely off of The Orphanage remake as a director.
Produced, once again by Guillermo Del Toro, the Orphanage is best known for being super creepy and an awesome horror film. The U.S. remake would've been much more so if Fessenden was still working on. Alas.

For a service that has only just launched, the library is truly incredible and surprisingly broad, offering a far larger selection than the majority of digital film content providers. The number of films available is set to grow exponentially, with SCEE’s President and CEO, Andrew House, telling GI that he expects “about an additional 50 movies per week” to arrive on the store. The US Video store grew 700% from its launch one year and three months ago, a promising trend which House intends to emulate.For a service that has only just launched, the library is truly incredible and... more

Unless you've been living under a cultural rock, you probably know that New Moon, the second installment in the wildly successful Twilight human-vampire romantic saga, opens Friday.
This time around, brooding vampire Edward must compete with werewolf Jacob for the attentions of Bella, the human heroine of the books and movies.
But with its sexy-but-chaste leads, this teen bodice-ripper series may be sending its target audience of teen and tween girls a mixed message, some fans say.
Then And Now
Back in the '70s and '80s, Hollywood preached a clear message in its teen horror films: have sex and die; stay a virgin and live.
"Let's look to Halloween," says Kevin Doughty, 17, referring to a classic example of the genre. "Jamie Lee Curtis, virgin through the entire movie. Lived."
A student at Mount Miguel High School in Spring Valley, Calif., Doughty thinks the Twilight films promote conflicting values. Bella and her vamp boyfriend, Edward, don't have sex, but in one scene, Edward comes into her room at night to watch her sleep in her underwear.
" I don't have the strength to stay away from you anymore," Edward says to Bella. "Then don't," she responds.
When Irish singer Glen Hansard and Czech pianist Markéta Irglová fell in love on the big screen in the 2007 hit "Once," audiences swooned over the passionate and fragile acoustic music the couple made together in the film, which mirrored, reflected and fictionalized their lives.
"To this day, people get confused as to where the lines are," Irglová said.
The soundtrack to "Once" sold 750,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan, and one of its tunes, "Falling Slowly," went on to win an Academy Award for original song.
In the intervening years, however, Hansard and Irglová's romance concluded, though their creative partnership lived on under the moniker of the Swell Season. The band, now on tour, is due to perform back-to-back shows at the Wiltern tonight and Thursday night.When Irish singer Glen Hansard and Czech pianist Markéta Irglová fell in love on the... more
