After the Robert Downey Jr. announcement that he will be playing the title role in Iron Man you may think this edition of The Casting Couch would be a little lackluster. Luckily there are people in this world that think comicbook adaptations are not the end all be all in movies, in fact our first announcement has to do with a movie that I am more excited about than any comicbook movie that has been announced, The Bourne Ultimatum.
Ice Cube has found himself another comedy as New Line has set the star to play a social climber whose aspirations are threatened by a youth who shows up and calls him daddy in a currently untitled film. Richard Murphy is scripting the film. [Variety]
