Dork Off!
Hold on to your pocket protectors! Variety reports that rival dorks, Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal, are in negotiations to star in a remake of the 2004 Danish film, “Brothers.” Maguire will play the older brother sent off to war in Afghanistan, while Gyllenhaal will play his younger sibling that stays at home and cares for Maguire’s wife and kid.
There hasn’t been a film with such inspired casting since Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro in “Heat.” And that film was more of a tease since they only shared two scenes. On the other hand, “Brothers” might actually settle the Maguire/Gyllenhaal competition. Who has the whinier voice? Who can look more pathetic in the face of rejection? Who can shed more tears per second? All those questions and more will be answered at a theater near you.
