Shelter producer J.D. DiSalvatore has posted on her blog some interesting thoughts on 3 current or upcoming major motion pictures featuring high profile out actors: Nim's Island (starring Jodie Foster), Harold & Kumar 2 (with NPH), Sex and the City: The Movie (with Cynthia Nixon).
Regarding Nim's Island, J.D. writes:
Jodie Foster quietly came out at a Women in Film brunch last year. CNN covered it, then that was that.
But meanwhile, she's out and she's gay and she's starring in one of the top ten films at the box office.
Foster
stars as a reclusive novelist of romantic action books like, um,
Kathleen Turner's role in ROMANCING THE STONE. The Michael Douglas part
however is played by hunky Gerald Butler from PHANTOM OF THE OPERA and
he's actually her imaginary friend, not her love interest.
Foster
steals away to an island after a distress call from a young fan, Nim,
played by LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE's Abigail Breslin. Nim is Foster's polar
opposite, open to the world and outgoing, but they both share the magic
gift of imagination. Nim has been living alone on this island with her
father (also played by Butler) who has since gone missing. The two
women then embark on an adventure to find him.
This is a family movie getting moderately good reviews, so if you have kids head on down to the theatre!
