Trek Actors Go To War


The long-gestating action/romantic comedy "This Means War" may finally make it to the big screen after all with the news that Tom Hardy replaces the very in demand Sam Worthington who had been circling the role according to Vulture.

Around Hollywood for a decade, Tim Dowling ("Role Models," "Midnight Run 2") has re-written the script which follows two best friends and veteran spies who fall for the same woman (Reese Witherspoon) who has moved into their spare room. They end up fighting for her affections using their black-ops warfare tactics, a fight which literally demolishes much of New York City along the way.

Chris Pine is already signed on to play the other male lead.

Both roles have seen numerous talent attached or offered roles at one point or another including Seth Rogen, Bradley Cooper, James Franco, Martin Lawrence, Robert Downey Jr. and Matt Damon.

McG will direct the film while Will Smith and James Lassiter will produce the pic.
