Caroline's Casting Couch: Bodhi Lives?!

The episode on Friends where Ross and Rachel get drunk and then married in Vegas was one of my favorites. And that same storyline was endlessly entertaining in a train wreck kind of way when Britney Spears got hitched to hometown hanger-on Jason Alexander.
Now, Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz will do the blitzed 'n' hitched thing in 20th Century Fox's What Happens in Vegas. It's going to be the most physical romantic comedy ever. Will the spastic duo play well, or will it be like when Ashton was on a honeymoon with Brittany Murphy in Just Married and all you wanted to do was put a cold compress on your head and sigh? I'm hoping for the former, scared of the latter.

On a more 100 percent enthusiastic note, I have no doubts about some other breaking movie news of the week. I mean, it’s only once in a girl’s life that she learns a sequel to Point Break is in the works. Will Keanu Reeves come back from his bat cave or wherever he hides? Not probably. Will Patrick Swayze riseth? Maybe. Squeal. Peter Iliff is writing and directing. He was a cowriter on the original script, so we like Peter very, very much. In the movie, set in southeast Asia, a “surfer turned SEAL” is in pursuit of a gang when he discovers what happened to Bodhi.
Bodhi?! Swayze! Aha! He didn’t get sucked up by the wave? Oh, I can’t stand it. This is too good. No official word on cast, but there will be one, because this really is going to be made. And they’re going to spend like $40 million, and that sounds about right.
Okay, I need to go jump up and down like Tom Cruise. You go do something nice for yourself and rent Point Break. Even if you’ve already seen it a million times.
