Jennifer Aniston in Manangement

SIDNEY KIMMEL ENTERTAINMENT

Presents

A TEMPLE HILL Production
A STEPHEN BELBER Film

MANAGEMENT

Starring

Jennifer Aniston
Steve Zahn
Woody Harrelson

MANAGEMENT is a romantic comedy that chronicles a chance meeting between Mike Cranshaw (Steve Zahn) and Sue Claussen (Jennifer Aniston).

When Sue checks into the roadside motel owned by Mike's parents in Arizona, what starts with a bottle of wine "compliments of MANAGEMENT" soon evolves into a multi-layered, cross-country journey of two people looking for a sense of purpose.

Mike, an aimless dreamer, bets it all on a trip to Sue's workplace in Maryland – only to find that she has no place for him in her carefully ordered life.

Buttoned down and obsessed with making a difference in the world, Sue goes back to her yogurt mogul ex-boyfriend Jango (Woody Harrelson), who promises her a chance to head his charity operations.

But, having found something worth fighting for, Mike pits his hopes against Sue's practicality, and the two embark on a twisted, bumpy, freeing journey to discover that their place in the world just might be together.

MANAGEMENT is first and foremost a comedy, but, derives its humor from the thrill and awkwardness of human relationships.

"The characters in the film have gaping human needs that are driving them. When you have that, you can go as broad as you want but only if it’s grounded in this human need to connect," explains writer/director Stephen Belber, the acclaimed playwright and screenwriter (THE LARAMIE PROJECT) who makes his feature film debut with MANAGEMENT.

"These are people who are cut off from others, or from their own emotional lives. They so desperately want to live life and be a part of someone else’s life."

Swine Flu and common sense.

As a rule I don’t comment on world affairs, just doesn’t seem to be the place.

However there is so much misinformation out there about this topic that I felt it was warranted this time.

Get the facts and don’t panic. Simple common sense will limit your chances of exposure and while not eliminating the chance there are things you can do to help yourself and others.

Here are two links with important information.

Jen still filming in NYC

Jen has her plate full these days. Production Week has the Sony Pictures film "Bounty Hunter" starting production in June.

Jen will star with Gerard Butler, and Andy Tennant in the director’s chair.

This won’t leave much down time as the "Baster" is expected to shoot through the end of May.

And there is still the Management promotion to do before its May opening.

Aniston Center Update

Hello all, been awhile since the last update. We have been busy here updating our forum ( JACF ) to the new version of the application and adding 4 new Styles to choose from. Come take a look and join in we would love to hear from you!

No real news on Jen other than her filming the "Baster" in NYC.

And Last night she joined celebrities Sheryl Crow and Laura Dern at the David Lynch "Change Begins Within" concert held at Radio City Music Hall.

Back to regular updates this week. Hope your having a terrific weekend.

Ted Casablanca Update?

Ted Casablanca is secretly in love with Jen. It’s the only explanation. And he’s jealous of Vince, and John.
Now he’s trying to convince us ( himself? ) that after nearly 2 years Vince Vaughn is getting back at Jen for dumping Vince by seeing and possibly marring someone else.
How much time do you deign to give Vince Ted, three years, 4? A decade perhaps?

Then there is the ever present Jen and John won’t last, it’s all for show, yada yada yada, like a broken record.

Remember when you could just whack the side to get past the skipping?

David Arquette Feeding America

As chairman of the celebrity outreach for Feeding America, David Arquette held a star studded reception at Eric Kranzler’s home.

Guest’s included Jennifer Aniston, Gwen Stefani, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Tobey Maguire.

Gone are the days when Americans could comfortably assume that the only national nutrition problem was obesity. That's what Arquette and his co-host of the event, Motion Picture Assn. of America head Dan Glickman, had in mind when they pulled together Hollywood activists with a record of social commitment.

From: LA Times

Happy New Year Jen!

Jen and friends are off to their yearly New Year stay in Cabo. Jen, Laura Dern, Courtney Cox and David Arquette arrived on Sunday. Word is that John is staying just down the beach with his friends and family too.

And Just to add to the New Years cheer, Marley and Me is a huge hit playing to sold out theaters.

For all of Jens fans, wherever you are and whatever you are doing all of us at Aniston Center hope you have a safe and happy New Year!

Ted Casablanca, says we're desperate.

Here’s a shocking turn of events; Ted Casablanca calling someone desperate.

Imagine...

For someone that drops Jens name in his column whether it fits or not; and we’re desperate?

Nice try Teddy.

If this had been the first time Jen did a cover like this, then yeah it would be desperate, but it’s not the first won’t be the last and Truth, yeah sure you betcha; Fox needs reviews from us; laughable.

Biased, yep, without reservation, but it doesn’t change the fact that this is a great movie, go see it first Ted and tell me I’m wrong.

Jennifer Aniston at the Marley & Me Premier

Wow, what a day it was yesterday. The nice folks at 20th Century Fox offered last minute tickets to Aniston Center Wednesday morning. After a flurry of activity I was able to get on a plane and go to LA.

I’m sitting in my hotel room still a little dazed.

First the movie:

Owen Wilson and Jen sparkle in this movie and the direction by David Frankel with an outstanding Screenplay by SCOTT FRANK and DON ROOS makes this film about Jenny and John Grogan a celebration of life and all of its magic. Laugh out-loud funny and heart wrenching blended together in what, in the end, is a true-love story. Marley is the metaphor for all of the craziness that flies at you in life and alters even the best laid plans and intentions. Marley is that random element, unpredictable and relentless, that slaps you upside the head trying to get you to pay attention to what’s important. Jen and Owen share an obvious on-screen chemistry that you can see from the beginning, and Alan Arkin is priceless as John Grogan’s deadpan editor at the Sun Sentinel.

The Event:

This was my first time at one of these events, seems like a long way to go to see a movie ( and expensive! ) but I simply couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

Jen was radiant as she stepped from her car onto the red Carpet, flanked by the ever present security and her constant companion at these events, Mr. Stephen Huvane. The noise of the photographer’s cameras rapid fire mechanics snapping and flashing jumps a few decibels as they scramble for position. Jen went almost immediately to the fans to sign autographs before running the interview gauntlet on the Red Carpet. I had just minutes before this picked up my tickets and given one to one of our members who is a Hollywood resident. The rules are that you are supposed to go directly to the theater, but I wasn’t about to pass up the opportunity to watch Jen arrive. However they did finally shoo me away and politely asked if I would go to the theater with my ticket. Having never been to one of these I was a little surprised when they wanted my camera; no cameras allowed in the theater. It was clear why when I entered the theater. The first 7 or 8 rows and balcony are open to the folks with tickets, the rest of the seats are taken by the cast and filmmakers, And there was Jens seat, and next to her was none other than John Mayer. Had I known John was going to be there I would have tried to catch his arrival too, but it was too late.

I had a blast, and only wish that the pictures I took had turned out better.
They are here in the forum.

Update - Dec 13:
Well, my stay in LA is coming to an end in the morning so some final thoughts.

Gotta say this was one of the coolest things I have done in a LONG time. Spur of the moment; it was just get your rear in gear and go!

Staying at the Westwood W Hotel; I expected snooty rich people, and yeah Ok there are some, but the hotel is gorgeous and the food is great ( try the Denver Omelet for breakfast ) and the staff never once let down this, ( hmmm what’s the word ), Ok, Hick.

Disappointments?

Only one at the premier, Jen practically walked right up to me to get to the fans for autographs; Didn’t say a word, not one, stood there, camera in hand mind you, like a deer caught in the headlights. Blast…

So it’s back to the real world in the morning, it’s been fun LA!

Jennifer hits the road for Marley and Me.

Press and promotion for Marley and Me is finally in full gear with Jen and Owen Wilson hitting the news papers and TV interviews.

Let's see, who else wears hats...

Jennifer has her say in Vogue

The tabloids predictably quoted out of context, but Vogue has put the article up on their website so the guessing can stop.

And John, if you’re reading this I can sympathize, but I got the biggest kick out of this:

"Mayer caught a lot of grief for his lack of chivalry, but Aniston chalks up his outburst to inexperience. "He had to put that out there that he broke up with me. And especially because it's me. It's not just some girl he's dating. I get it. We're human. But I feel seriously protective of him and us."

"Trust me, you'll never see that happen again from that man."

Been there done that John.

Jennifer on Oprah and 30 Rock

Also in the news; Variety reported yesterday that “Management” with Jennifer and Steve Zahn has been picked up by Image Entertainment and will be released in the spring of 2009.

Universal renews deal with Stuber/Parent

Universal and Stuber/Parent are officially signed up again and will release Traveling with Jennifer and Aaron Eckhart in 2009.

In 2009, Universal will release at least three, if not four, Stuber-produced movies: "The Wolfman," directed by Joe Johnston and starring Benicio Del Toro and Anthony Hopkins; "Traveling," directed by Brandon Camp and starring Aaron Eckhart, Jennifer Aniston and Martin Sheen; and the sci-fi thriller "Repossession Mambo," starring Jude Law and Forest Whitaker and directed by Miguel Sapochnik.

Jennifer and Owen Wilson build a snowman ...

In an interview with Lisa Rosen at the LA Times, Jen talks about her experience on the set of Marley & Me.

"I walked onto the set and put my sweater and my bag down on the couch, and that dog leapt up onto the couch, grabbed my sweater and started ripping it," she says. The trainers responded immediately, but not as she expected. "They said, 'good, good boy!' and gave him treats." No wonder Clyde came to work every day with a big smile. "The set was a toy."

From: LA Times/Lisa Rosen

Over past few weeks there have been references to 9, 20, 22 and 27 dogs for the movie; the LA Times says 22 so I will go with that.

How did she prepare for the role?

Director David Frankel ("The Devil Wears Prada") asked her not to do anything in advance of the shoot in Miami, to just let the role unfold organically. "I said, 'You're the boss, I'm your actor, so let's go,' " says the actress, who usually works with a coach for her movies. "It was all on the page. There was really nothing to do, except be."

Jennifer Aniston Tabloid Update:

Well lets’ see what do we have today. Ahh Jen is pregnant, nope wrong again. The astonishing thing here isn’t how often Jen gets pregnant it’s that so many believe the announcement will come from, oh lets say, Australia.

Don’t get me wrong, nothing wrong down under, it’s just, well, if it’s not in Ok magazine I don’t believe it, after all they wouldn’t make anything up right? Right…

Item two, for which Item one has a critical dependency has Jen apparently seeing someone named John. Again, no less…

Don’t know if this one is true or not, but they have been seen together again, however I'm awaiting word out of Australia.

Hope everyone has a great week.

We will miss Paul Newman

The world of entertainment is smaller today, smaller in the sense that one of my favorite actors has passed away.

When I was 9 my father took me to see "The Hustler", he was a fan of Jackie Gleason and I was just happy to be out with my dad. At nine years old most of the movie was lost on me, it was all boring and just talk, except for the scenes when they played pool.

Fast Eddie was COOL!

Years later, perhaps not until my 30s did I actually "get" it. Bert Gordon, played by George C. Scott said it best after Fast Eddie looses to Fats:

Bert Gordon: Eddie, you're a born loser.
Fast Eddie: What's that supposed to mean?
Bert Gordon: First time in ten years I ever saw Minnesota Fats hooked... really hooked. But you let him off.
Fast Eddie: I told you I got drunk.
Bert Gordon: Sure you got drunk. You have the best excuse in the world for losing; no trouble losing when you got a good excuse.

Actor, philanthropist and entrepreneur: "Once you've seen your face on a bottle of salad dressing, it's hard to take yourself seriously"

Our heart felt condolences go out to Mr. Newman’s family and friends.

Thank you Paul.

Stand Up to Cancer tops $100 Million dollars.

Patrick Swayze, Christiana Applegate, and Melisa Etherege, all Cancer survivors were on hand to help with this amazing push for cooperation by researchers and other organizations. Likened to the March of Dimes founded in 1938 that stamped out polio, Stand Up to Cancer promises that:

"One hundred percent of the more than $100 million raised will go directly to funding the research programs necessary to battle this insidious disease," said Paulsen in a statement Sunday that accompanied the announcement.

Update: TMZ has a Video of Jen on the set in NYC.

Management to be showcased at Toronto Film Festival

This year the Toronto Film Festival is showcasing 20 films and one of them will be Management with Jennifer and Steve Zahn.

Management tells the story of Mike Cranshaw ( Steve Zahn ) and Sue Claussen’s ( Jennifer Aniston ) chance meeting at the roadside motel in Arizona. Mikes pursuit of Sue is more of a disruption to Jennifer’s character but Cranshaw isn’t going to give up just because Sue is way out of his league.

Speculation will run to chaos no doubt about an encounter between Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston at the festival, but the films are in different venues so an encounter is unlikely. Not that will stop the tabloids from hawking this instead of the festival; facts are always such an inconvenience. Brad is in the Coen brothers' latest, "Burn After Reading," with George Clooney Frances McDormand, and John Malkovich and will be shown at the Roy Thomson Hall.

Management is in the Special Presentations category, which is shown at various locations around Toronto.

The festival runs from September 4 through the 13th and will show 249 feature films, 63 shorts from 64 countries including 116 world premieres


GET TICKETS : 416-968-FILM | 1-877-968-FILM


Management will be shown at the ISABEL BADER THEATRE on September 7th at 9:30 PM and September 9th at the SCOTIABANK THEATRE 2 at 9:30 AM.

Seems like there was some other big news, must be having a senior moment ... well I’m sure it will come to me ...

Jennifer Aniston News Update

Problem here is that there isn’t any news. Usually when this happens the tabloids fabricate some stories…Wait! This just in… Jennifer and John Mayer are getting married… no, not yet anyway OK!

And Star Magazine…no comment…

What has the actress been doing? July 31st Jennifer did a PSA for St. Jude’s Children Research Hospital according to Us Magazine.

Everyone here expected Jen and John to slip away while John is off for the next two weeks. Johns concert tour is on a short break until July 19th when he will return to the stage in Charlotte NC.

Jen has been spotted out and about in LA in the last two weeks and we have some pictures of her in the Forum, but we will most likely not see her too much until the press begins in November for Marley and Me.

So stay tuned.

TABLOID UPDATE:

Just when you think it’s safe, BANG someone goes and let’s In Touch use their computers.

Latest from this group of malcontents is John cheating on Jen in Amsterdam.

Only problem?

Surprise!

It’s not true.

The woman who In Touch claimed was hit on by John Mayer – during the time he’s been linked to Jennifer Aniston – tearfully told Usmagazine.com that the story "is completely not true" and she's considering legal action against the magazine.

Here is the really bizarre thing about this though:

Us Magazine Us!! Rushing to Jens defense… I wonder where Janice went on her vacation???

I have to go now, there’s a gaggle of Razorback’s flying by the window and I will need pictures. Or is it flock…

Jennifer in Hard Rock Calling, Hyde Park for John Mayer concert

Jennifer attended John’s concert on Saturday evening at the Hard Rock Calling, Hyde Park. This has been a whirlwind trip for Jen, she left LA last Sunday and arrived in London, stayed one day and it was off to Amsterdam on Tuesday. Then to Connemara, Ireland on Wednesday and 2 days of shooting Marley and Me returning to London on Friday for the concert.

John has 2 more concerts scheduled for this leg of his tour:

• Tonight, Saturday June 28 in London at the Hard Rock Calling, Hyde Park

and Tomorrow

• June 29 Glastonbury Festival in Pilton

Then it is off to Summerfest at the Marcus Amphitheater in Milwaukee on June 2nd

Jennifer arrives in Roundstone Connemara, Ireland on Wednesday

Jen arrives in Connemara west of Ireland on Wednesday for a few days of shooting Marley and Me. No word yet on whether Jennifer will be spending the weekend or has headed back to London. In the photo Jen is passing security at the Shannon Airport.

UPDATE:

Wilson, Aniston and crew stayed in the plush Ballynahinch Castle hotel during the shoot, which took in several locations around Connemara, including Roundstone in Co Galway.

They spent only two nights -- Wednesday and Thursday -- at the castle, with the entire cast and crew taking up 20 €600 rooms over two floors of the castle's luxury wing.

Aniston flew into Shannon Airport by private jet on Wednesday evening and was accompanied by three friends and a minder.

She was then flown by helicopter to her hotel and it is understood that she also left by helicopter yesterday morning.

Hotel staff vowed to keep a tight lid on the visit until their famous guests left, even though word of the filming had filtered out locally.

From: independent.ie

Jennifer Aniston is in Amsterdam

News reports from Amsterdam have Jen, Owen Wilson and Hugh Jackman on RTL Boulevard promoting Marley and Me at the Cinema Expo International on behalf of 20th Century Fox.

Apparently the interview was very short and Jen was only on for a second.

Our source in Amsterdam is keeping an eye on the Entertainment shows for us, so we may get more news later.

Meanwhile John Mayer is in Birmingham, UK performing at the Carling Academy and will be in Manchester at the Manchester Academy tomorrow.

UPDATE:

Here is a video ( Dutch ) from RTL ( Click on the "24-06 Meer sterren in NL" Link )

The interview is with Jen, Hugh and Owen, but Jen never really gets to talk. Apparently they weren’t allowed to ask her any personal questions so they didn't ask any...

This is actually two press conferences, one with Jen and Owen and another with Hugh, "spliced" together to look like one.

Jennifer may be going to Amsterdam

Ok maybe I was just a little early yesterday, this from NU.nl in Amsterdam:

Keanu Reeves en Owen Wilson in Amsterdam

AMSTERDAM - Keanu Reeves, Owen Wilson en Jennifer Aniston zijn deze week in Amsterdam voor de Cinema Expo International in de RAI. De acteurs bezoeken de vakbeurs op uitnodiging van filmstudio Fox Film. Dat heeft een woordvoerder van het evenementengebouw maandag bevestigd.

Keanu Reeves and Owen Wilson in Amsterdam
AMSTERDAM - Keanu Reeves, Owen Wilson en Jennifer Aniston will be visiting the Cinema Expo International in the RAI in Amsterdam. The actors attend the event at the invitation of Fox Film. A spokesman of the RAI confirmed the visit on monday.

The website of Amsterdam's local tv network AT5 published pictures monday of Owen Wilson riding a bike alongside the canals: Owen in Amsterdam. Whether Aniston or Reeves have arrived in the capital is unknown. According to the Daily Mail Aniston arrived sunday at London Heathrow. She'll accompany boyfriend John Mayer during a few concerts in Great-Britain.

More big names are scheduled to appear at the RAI. The spokesman couldn't confirm any names. The Cinema Expo, held this monday till friday, is an important gathering of movie- and theater exploiters. The event is taking place for the sixteenth time this year.

The spokesman of the RAI emphasizes the stars aren't in Amsterdam vacationing or doing promotion. They will be having business talks with the filmstudio.

Many thanks to MrFish for the translation.

So One More time!

Welkom in Amstredam, van al jouw fans in Nederland!
( Welcome to Amsterdam from all of your fans in the Netherlands! )

And this from MSN:

Jennifer at LAX going to...London

Jennifer left LA yesterday and everyone here is speculating she is off to meet John in Den Haag for John’s concert today.

Welkom in Den Haag, van al jouw fans in Nederland!
( Welcome to The Hague from all of your fans in the Netherlands! )

However as usual the speculation was wrong, Jen arrived in London this morning and was whisked away to parts unknown.

John has concerts scheduled in the UK after this:

• June 24 in Birmingham
• June 25 in Manchester
• June 27 & 28 in London
• June 29 in Pilton


All the details are on John’s site.

Tabloid Update:

An unfortunate result of Jen staying under cover is that we are left with only the Tabloids. Now there isn’t anything I like better than poking fun at the yahoos that write this crap, but I think Life and Style has had their head up someone’s ars too long and the oxygen deprivation has them hallucinating.

Latest story about Jen from these twits, is that Jen refused to be on the cover of Mari Clair for "He's Just Not That Into You" if Jennifer Connelly was included.

Ginnifer Goodwin has denied this and said it was absurd. Stephen has denied this and went on to say that in fact, Mari Clair wanted Jen alone at first. However Jen’s role is not that big to start with so it was suggested that as the lead role Ginnifer Goodwin was a must.

However in their infinite ( cash counting ) wisdom Mari Clair said yes but we only want 3 on the cover then, and Drew has to be one of them, leaving Jennifer Connelly out altogether

Here is a thought; why not have the girls on the cover of Vogue and the guys on the cover of GQ.

Special birthday wishes

Just thought I would let everyone know today is birthday number 4 for Coco
Cox-Arquette.

Happy Birthday CoCo from all of us at Aniston Center!!

There are birthday wishes in the Forum too!!

Marley and Me trailer

20th Century Fox has a Marley and Me trailer out already.

See the video here: Marley and Me

Marley loose on the beach in Miami

Jennifer Aniston & Owen Wilson chasing Marley on the beach in Miami

Marley and Me, It’s a wrap!

The Marley and Me crew completed filming at around 1 am Friday with some final shots of Owen taking Marley ( aka Rudy ) to the vet. Hundreds of fans showed up and spent most of the night in the cold watching and taking pictures.

Jen is back in LA as her part in the filming finished last week.

This has been the most fun we have had with one of Jens shoots, but we also hope we weren’t too much of a nuisance.

So to the film crew, Jen, Owen Wilson and Mr. Frankel we do apologize if we sent too many people in your way ( ahem one in particular :-)) .

But look on the bright side; we will all be at the theater opening day!

Marley and Me is currently scheduled for release Christmas Day 2008.

New photos from Marly & Me

Roxy has done it again taking photos of the Marley and Me set and Owen Wilson. Check out the new photos in the JACF Forum and have a look at the video on YouTube.

Video: On the set of Marley and Me

Photographs from the Marley and Me set

One of our members ( roxygr ) has snapped some amazing photographs of the Marley & Me crew setting up for filming in West Chester last night.
She also had a chance to catch Jennifer returning to her trailer during a break.

It was cold, raining miserable weather but Roxy stuck it out and shared her experience with all of us at Aniston Center.

Thank you Roxy, it was an amazing night!

Jennifer Aniston On the Marley and Me set in West Chester Pa. with FOX 29

The FOX 29 Good Day Philadelphia crew were up bright ( well not so bright, it was raining ) and early this morning on the Marley and Me set in West Chester.

They had a chance to talk to some of Jennifer's fans who were disappointed that Jennifer was not scheduled to be on set till later in the day.
Smartwater was on hand to give out bottled water to the fans, crew and the police.

Fans should get an opportunity to see Jennifer and Owen once the set preparations are completed and filming resumes this afternoon.

Shooting is scheduled for the rest of this week and next, then the rumor is they will be off to Ireland.

Here is the FOX 29 video from this mornings show:

John Grogan and David Frankel

John and David were interviewed by the The Philadelphia Inquirer's Michael Klein. Here is a short excerpt from John Grogan’s blog.

It's the story of a marriage as seen through the prism of life with a family dog."
He added: "It's the mundane parts of life that make up most of the hours of the day, and what the book is about is savoring the everydayness of life, appreciating the present."

Continued at: Marley and Me

Jennifer picked up filming on Friday shooting scenes in the snow with the stage version of the Grogan family and we have some photos in the Forum.
Shooting picks up again on Monday and I believe will last two more weeks.
