Perry making “Dirty Pictures”

Matthew Perry has joined the cast of the highly-anticipated and slightly-feared (by the industry) film adaptation of Peter Biskind’s best-selling novel “Down and Dirty Pictures”.

Like Robert Altman’s “The Player”, the flick both takes the piss and exposes the open wounds of the independent film industry. In particular, it exposes the machinations of Miramax, as operated by Bob and Harvey Weinstein.

The film will be shot with actors, but will include segments in comic-book inspired animation, and claymation.

Perry (“17 Again”) joins a cast of recognizable faces in the film – a lot, like him, from the world of TV – including Vincent D’Onofrio (as Harvey Weinstein, no less!), Andy Serkis (“Lord of the Rings”), Sally Hawkins, Hugh Dancy (“Confessions of a Shopaholic”), Bobby Canavale, and Elias Koteas (yep kids! Casey Jones from “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles : The Movie”!). Indy alumni like Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez are also rumoured to be making appearances in the flick.

Ken Bowser‘s film tells of Bingham Ray and Jeff Lipsky, a couple of novice filmmakers who plan – via their new company October Films – to take on Miramax Films. Ray and Lipsky hope to nourish art-house cinema and compete against Harvey and his brother Bob, creating a grueling, emotional battle over the future of independent film.

Shooting begins next month in Park City.

Matthew Perry to Face 40 on New Sitcom

Chandler at 40: Matthew Perry will star in, co-write and executive produce an as-yet untitled ABC sitcom that he conceived, says the Hollywood Reporter.

The former Chandler Bing of Friends will play a self-absorbed manager of a second-rate sports arena who starts to take stock of his life as he turns 40 – the milestone Perry hit in August.

Other Friends sightings on the tube lately include Courteney Cox starring on ABC’s Cougar Town and Matt LeBlanc signing to headline the Showtime-BBC series Episodes.

Matthew Seen at Guys & Dolls Party

No pics as of yet but Matthew was seen at The Guys & Dolls Opening Party Last night.

As more party goers filtered in, DJ AM threw down and turned up the heat in the room with his fast paced, crowd pleasing turntable style. The guests, who were extremely mixed from 20 something hipsters to Frank Sinatra look alikes, sang along and danced on top of the towering banquettes. Milling about the crowd was a sport coat clad Matthew Perry doing laps of the room, relatively new Mom and Victoria’s Secret Angel Alessandra Ambrosio looking stunning in a strapless black top, and a cocktail sipping ex-Miss California USA pageant co-director Shanna Moakler was hanging by the front banquette grooving to DJ AM’s tunes. This place is definitely special and not your typical L.A. drinking spot, as the energy of the room transports me back to my bar days in Manhattan-land of good vibes and a cool mix of people.
