Little Girl Saved After Natasha Richardson's Death
March 26, 2009 at 5:40 pm

A young girl in Ohio who suffered the same brain injury as Natasha Richardson is alive today because her parents took her to the hospital after hearing about Richardson's brain injury and death.

CNN reports that Morgan McCracken, 7, was hit in the head with a baseball during a game with her dad and brother in the family backyard. The girl's parents iced her injury, and she seemed fine for two days, even getting an A on her spelling test.

Morgan's mom and dad, Connie and Donald McCracken, learned of Natasha Richardson's accident, in which she injured her head but was lucid and talking afterward, and wondered if their daughter was truly OK following the baseball accident, CNN reports. That night, Morgan began complaining of a headache, so the family ventured out to the emergency room. Morgan was in such bad shape by the time they got there that she had to be transferred to a children's hospital by helicopter, where she was immediately taken into surgery, according to CNN.

March 26, 2009 at 11:24 am

The casting for the remake of 'The Three Stooges' is underway, with MGM and the Farrelly brothers pursuing A-list actors to fill the comedic roles.

Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn is set to play Larry and funnyman Jim Carrey is in negotiations to play Curly. Meanwhile, the studio is still honing in on 'Che' actor Benicio Del Toro for the role of Moe, Variety reports.

The Farrelly brothers -- who wrote the script -- say the film is a comedy about the shenanigans that occurred while Larry Fine, Moe and Shemp Howard were performing in the Columbia Pictures shorts.


Kiefer Sutherland & Hugh Laurie Have Fun with 'Monsters vs. Aliens'
March 26, 2009 at 4:05 am

'Monsters vs. Aliens' invades theaters everywhere Friday -- in 3-D at select theaters and IMAX -- and our own Kevin Frazier caught up with two of its stars, Kiefer Sutherland and Hugh Laurie, who found the animated movie process a refreshing detour from their well-known TV personas.

"Playing a cockroach is a different tone, and it's good fun to let rip," says "House" star Hugh. "There's a slight Vincent Price-ness to his character."

Hugh plays Dr. Cockroach Ph.D., a mad scientist whose unfortunate experiments fused him with the giant head of a cockroach (just like 'The Fly'), while Kiefer plays General W.R. Monger, the leader and caretaker of the hidden-away monsters who battle aliens from another world.
