Julie Andrews to Star in Tooth Fairy

Julie Andrews will join Dwayne Johnson and Ashley Judd in Fox's family comedy Tooth Fairy, says The Hollywood Reporter.

Also on board are "Extras" star Stephen Merchant, who also co-created "The Office," and pro skateboarder Ryan Sheckler (MTV's "Life of Ryan").

The film centers on Derek Thompson (Johnson), a minor-league hockey player whose nickname is the Tooth Fairy because of his ability to knock out opposing players' teeth. Judd plays his girlfriend.

When he discourages a youngster's hope, Derek is ordered to one week's hard labor as a real tooth fairy, complete with wings, magic wand and frilly tutu. Along the way, he rediscovers his forgotten dreams.

Andrews will play Lily, a high-ranking, acerbic supervisor with the Tooth Fairy Department charged with overseeing Derek's stint as a tooth fairy.

Filming will begin in October in Vancouver with Michael Lembeck directing a script by Lowell Ganz & Babaloo Mandel and Joshua Sternin & Jeffrey Ventimilia.

If you don't mind Hunter, I may post the poster over at the Pro Wrestling thread. That should get plenty of reaction over there, likely more then in this thread.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Go for it.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Go for it.

Done.

[GhostPoet]

oh Dwayne...what have you done...has it really come down to this?

 

[Wolfwood]

Oh Dwayne, you silly bastard.

 

[Raiden]

I'd rather have Dwayne Johnson star in dumb action roles than dumb comedy roles. Sadly, this falls on the latter.

 

[Octoberist]

who else think that Dwayne got hair transplants?

He always had a big forehead but his hair was radically receding 4-5 years ago. Then it magically stopped.

This should be good for kids.

ohh god

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

Those previews were torture.

 

[louiebling$]

Honestly I'm happy for Dwayne and his movie career and its great that he is doing kid flicks.... but come one.. we need some action flicks! I want to see him in Predators!

 

[Catman]

The Rock really needs to take a moment to re-think his career plans. The Game Plan wasn't that bad...for a kids movie and he was okay in Get Smart but in general he hasn't done anything good since The Rundown. Dude was supposed to be the next Schwarzenegger.
