Richard Gere

A Russian assassin is on the loose in Washington DC in The Double trailer, and it's up to Paul Shepherdson (Richard Gere) to track him down. Shepherdson, a former CIA operative, has come out of retirement to track down the hitman he spent his entire career chasing down — and he begrudgingly accepts the help of an FBI rookie, Ben Geary (Topher Grace). Throughout much of the trailer, Shepherdson attempts to convince his young partner that the assassin is actually dead, suggesting Geary drop the case if he has any concern for the safety of his young wife and kids. So why is a man who is working the case so eager to abandon it?

That's where The Double trailer starts to give too much away. In what seems to be a major plot spoiler, it reveals that Shepherdson may be the assassin he's been assigned to bring in, and it's a pretty safe bet that Shepherdson is up to some duplicitous, double-agent (ahem, thanks to the film title for tipping us off to that, too) shenanigans in the film. The Double hits theaters Sept. 23, but see what you make of the trailer when you read more

Count me in for this one: Keira Knightley, Eric Bana, and Richard Gere have all signed on to star in The Emperor's Children, based on Claire Messud's novel.

Taking place before and after 9/11, the dramedy centers on three Brown University grads as they approach their 30s and deal with the pressures of responsibility and expectations. Relatable, yes, but I often worry when films try to use 9/11 as a reference point, because sometimes it can feel like a manipulative way to conjure up tears; however, the good news here is Noah Baumbach (most recently of Greenberg) is taking on the directing duties, which could make it a really poignant, introspective movie. He is also adapting the screenplay.

Gere is reportedly playing a more supporting character role, and since Bana is 41, I'm guessing Knightley is the only one of the three portraying one of the Brown alumni. Hey, at least she'll get a break from those laced-up corsets she usually wears.

Diane Kruger was back in Berlin over the weekend to attend Saturday's Goldene Kamera Awards. The red carpet style star didn't disappoint in her latest gorgeous gown, this time opting to wear a Valentino number that another attendee, the model Barbara Meier, also wore. Kruger also kept warm with a faux fur coat. Karl Lagerfeld didn't seem to mind that Diane wasn't in Chanel, as he took the stage to present her with the Best International Actress statue for her work in Inglourious Basterds. Joining Diane for the show were Danny DeVito and Richard Gere, who added a little more Hollywood sparkle to the German event.
