Arrested Development’s Jeffrey Tambor & Wife Welcome Baby Girl
It’s an early holiday present for Jeffrey Tambor and his wife Kasia, who have welcomed a daughter, Eve Julia, his rep tells PEOPLE.
The baby girl was born Dec. 10 and weighed in at 8 lbs.
Tambor recently starred alongside John Lithgow on NBC’s Twenty Good Years, following three critically-acclaimed seasons on FOX’s Arrested Development.
Sylvester Stallone to Star in Cliffhanger 2: The Dam?
If true, this is a bad move. PR Insider reports that Sylvester Stallone is in negotiations with Sony Pictures to revise his character Cliffhanger, er, Gabe Walker, in a sequel to 1993’s Cliffhanger, which grossed $84 million domestically and $200 million plus worldwide. The sequel will be entitled The Dam, which automatically makes me think of the “surefire” pitch that became 1996’s megaflop Daylight: Stallone versus dam tunnel. And, I’m so sure, there are challenging cliffs to hang from on a dam.

Stallone’s Rambo is nearing $40 million domestic, but won’t reach the $70 million heights of Rocky Balboa. Super Bowl weekend seemed to take out a chunk of its potential business, as word of mouth was overwhelmingly positive. Worldwide, the sequel is still rolling out, and the industry already views the film as a success; the press, another success story. As much as I think Stallone remaking Charles Bronson’s Death Wish is uninspired, bookending another of his Golden Oldies, one memorable only for its atmosphere and a bug-eyed villain played by John Lithgow, narrows the scope of his latest comeback and opens up the punchlines.
Does anyone see potential in Cliffhanger 2: The Dam?
Broadway Beckons Katie Holmes
Broadway Beckons Katie Holmes
She was a hit on the small screen with Dawson’s Creek, and her latest big-screen film “Mad Money” did pretty well for itself. And now Katie Holmes is poised to conquer the stage.
That’s right, Mrs. Tom Cruise has confirmed that she’ll be joining John Lithgow, Dianne Wiest, and Patrick Wilson in a Broadway revival of All My Sons by Arthur Miller.
And according to a source, the “Teaching Mrs. Tingle” cutie actually had stage acting in her sights long before she hit the Hollywood scene.
“Back in High School, Katie was the lead in every musical she tried out for. She had a real sense of owning the stage. Everyone knew she’d be huge someday,” said a high school acquaintance, who worked with Holmes on a production of Damn Yankees back in Catholic school.
