You know what they say about Fridays - they come after Thursday, and everyone’s just looking forward to the weekend. Here at IOTG, we’re not letting a slow news day get us down. We’ve found some nuggets that are, well, somewhat exciting.
BREAKING BAD’s Bryan Cranston has a bunch of cool projects coming down the pike - WORLD WAR Z, CONTAGION, and DRIVE, to name a few - but it seems he’s expanding his repertoire. He is adapting the thriller HOME AGAIN, and his sights set on directing.

We’re hearing Jennifer Garner‘s been offered the lead in JOHNSON, a comedy about an executive who gets the shaft at work, and disguises herself as a man to get her job back. Should be a barrel of laughs - when are cross-dressing and dick jokes not? Peter Segal is attached to direct. Atlas will produce for Summit.

Word on the street is Miranda Cosgrove is attached to IF I STAY, a drama about a comatose young girl who, post-car crash, must decide whether she should join her family in the afterlife or fight to live. Di Novi will produce for Summit. Heitor Dhalia is attached to direct.
