from aint-it-cool-news.com:
.... You know how it's been rumoured that eventually actors like Humphrey Bogart or James Cagney are going to be brought back from the dead digitally in a feature film? (Of course, this sacrilege has already happened in commercials.) Well, it looks like it's going to happen, and the first lucky (?) actor to receive this digital resurrection is... Oliver Reed.
Reed's untimely death in a Maltese bar (natch) during the filming of Scott's epic Gladiator has left the director stumped. Mr. Hurt
said that Scott is too far into the production to simply replace Reed. So instead Scott is planning to have Reed replaced by a digital counterpart.
Reed, legendary boozer that he was, had completed most of the principal photography on Gladiator when he died unexpectedly. Should Scott simple recast the character and reshoot his scenes? Most likely, he can't; the cost would be prohibitive. Then again, how much will it cost to digitize Reed? How are they going to do it? Is Gladiator screwed? ....

"The Yards" didn`t change it`s name. (Maybe you remember it, I told you it changed it`s name to "Thatīs the Way I Like It") They made a mistake at upcomingmovies.com.

On Line Mirror (May 31, 1999)
TITANIC star Kate Winslet is teaming up with Geoffrey Rush for a film about one of the world's most infamous pornographers.  Oscar winner Rush will play the Marquis de Sade in the pounds 125million movie. Briton Winslet and the Australian actor of Shakespeare In Love fame will be joined by screen veteran Michael Caine. The marquis scandalised French society in the 18th century with his books dealing with sexual excess and torture. The screenplay for Quills is based on a 1995 stage about the final years of the marquis when he was imprisoned in a lunatic asylum.

Shooting begins at London's Pinewood Studios at the end of July. It is due to be released by the end of the year.

Rush, who won an Academy Award for Shine, is Donatien Alphonse Francois, Marquis de Sade, a man so feared inmates of the Bastille would brandish crucifixes as he stalked the corridors of the prison. Michael Caine, who won a Golden Globe for his role in Little Voice, plays a doctor at the asylum. Kate Winslet is Madeleine LeClerc, de Sade's maid and mistress, who smuggles his last writings out of the asylum. A movie insider said: "Shooting begins at the end of July and they are still deciding on location shots. "It's an amazing gathering with some of the best and brightest talent in films."

As recently as 50 years ago tourist travelling back to Britain from France smuggled his banned pornographic books through customs. A personal friend of the French royal family, the marquis wrote about numerous sexual encounters and perversions. He gave his name to the word sadism. De Sade had an affair with a sister-in-law 46 years his junior and was jailed during the French Revolution for refusing to believe in God. He died in 1814 aged 74.

You can get a lot of information about the movie at the Kate Winslet Fan Club.

Joaquin`s name in "Quills" will be Abbe de Coulmier!

And here old news I just found (it must be from last year):
Mark Wahlberg must be red-faced, considering all the birthday kisses he's been getting. On Friday, co-stars Joaquin Phoenix and Charlize Theron brought out a cake for him at the kick-off party for his new movie, "The Yards," at downtown restaurant The Exchange.
