Will Last Night Ever Make it to the Screen?

The Walt Disney Company, which bought Miramax from the Weinstein brothers in 2005, has closed down the studio after 30 years in business.

Miramax was founded by brothers Bob and Harvey Weinstein back in 1979. It found success as an independent distribution and production outfit, before becoming part of the Disney empire in 1993. The company had huge success with hits such as Clerks and sex, lies and videotape, helped launch the outstanding career of Quentin Tarantino, and even earned Oscars with the movies such as The English Patient and Shakespeare in Love. The Weinstein brothers – who named the company after their parents Max and Miriam – quit to form the Weinstein Company in 2005.

The six Miramax pictures that are currently awaiting distribution – including Last Night, starring Keira Knightley – now face an uncertain future.

Sam Worthington, Evan Mendes, and Keira Knightley: In One Film!

Gorgeous and red hot actor Sam Worthington (Avatar) was pleasantly surprised when he learned that Keira Knightley and Eva Mendes were his co-stars in the upcoming film Last Night.

Sam said he felt like he’d hit the jackpot when he was told he’d be sharing the screen with the two Hollywood beauties. His friends were so excited that they rushed to visit him in New York to meet the female stars while he filmed the movie!

“I did the film as a favour to the director and then she said, ‘I have Keira Knightley and Eva Mendes too.’ So I thought, ‘Let’s go to the lottery!’ Suddenly all my mates, who weren’t that bothered before, wanted to come out to New York and hang out with Keira and Eva. Strange that,” the Daily Star quoted him as saying.

What a ridiculously gorgeous film Last Night is going to be with these three in it!
