Bryce Dallas Howard Joins Hereafter

Bryce Dallas Howard has signed on to star in Clint Eastwoods "supernatural drama" Hereafter for Warner Bros. I have never been a big fan of Howard's especially after her role in The Village where she couldn't act blind to save her life. But Clint Eastwood might be able to turn that around.

"Hereafter," penned by Peter Morgan, tells the story of three people -- a blue-collar American, a French journalist and a London school boy — who are touched by death in different ways. "Hereafter" is produced by Eastwood, Kathleen Kennedy and Robert Lorenz. Steven Spielberg, Frank Marshall, Peter Morgan and Tim Moore are the exec producers.

Filming’s taking place in Paris, London, Hawaii and San Francisco. Pic’s slated for release in December 2010.
