Glen Basner’s FilmNation will be showing footage of the film — whose tightly guarded plot is said to be about celebrity and excess — for the first time to international buyers who invested in Malick’s latest endeavor. CAN YOU SAVE CALAMITY JANE? OUI! By Pamela McClintock & Stuart Kemp A year ago, when the Natalie Portman Western Jane Got a Gun first was coming together at Cannes, no one could have predicted that one of last year’s hottest scripts would unravel so spectacularly. The number of stars bolting have left all sides reeling — and that’s on top of the departure of direc- tor Lynne Ramsay. Jane finally has corralled its second leading man, Ewan McGregor, after losing Michael Fassbender, Jude Law and Bradley Cooper. The film is weeks from wrapping production in New Mexico. But the danger isn’t over as Exclusive Media reintroduces the movie, with a dramatically different cast, to foreign buyers. While most buyers have stuck with the project on a wait-and-see H ollywood and Cannes on Tuesday were buzzing about Angelina Jolie’s revelation that she underwent a preventative double mastectomy after doctors found her to have a high risk of breast cancer. “I hope that other women can benefit from my experience,” she wrote in a New York Times op-ed.

They’re here to promote projects at the script stage — except for Lawrence — that are being shopped at the Marche du Film.

Then we are looking for non-British projects which fall into two kinds: We look to buy smaller character- and director-led movies that are nicely packaged.

Adds Graham King, producer of In the Land of Blood and Honey and The Tourist: “Angelina’s bravery con- sistently shines through in every aspect of her life — not only in her career choices but in her personal life.

Back in February, Exclusive Media president of sales Alex Walton was signing deals left and right with foreign distributors clamoring to get a piece of Jane because of its script and dazzling cast. But days aft er Berlin wrapped, Fassbender, whose deal hadn’t been fi nalized, exited. By the end of March, on the eve of the fi rst day of shooting in New Mexico, Ramsay walked off aft er a three-day standoff with producer Scott Steindorff over fi nal cut. Law — who’d taken over Fassbender’s role — also high-tailed it, since he had come aboard to work with Ramsay, who was quickly replaced by director Gavin O’Connor. When Cooper signed on, Walton and the produc- ers breathed a sigh of relief since he is one of only a handful of actors viewed as an international box of- fi ce star. But then suddenly Cooper was out because Jane CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Production Delays Have Buyers Grousing By Scott Roxborough Buyers heading into this year’s Cannes market are griping that production delays on several big titles are making it harder to commit to new fi lms being shopped around.

Ron Howard’s Jolie of a scheduling confl ict (he’s still shooting David O. Russell’s American Hustle, which was interrupted by the Boston Marathon bombing). Finally, McGregor replaced Cooper to play the villain, a role previously belonging to Joel Edgerton, part of the original cast, who now is playing Portman’s love interest. The budget of the fi lm is $15 million, and the producers — including Portman — had hoped to take a loan against foreign pre-sales to cover some of the budget. But banks oft en won’t release funds aft er key castmembers exit a production since international distributors can opt out of their contracts. Those foreign distributors who stuck by Jane Got a Gun say they are biding their time until they see a cut of the fi lm. “It still has Portman, and there is no pressure on me as a buyer to do anything until it gets done and they have something to show,” one says. During Cannes, Walton, who remains high on the fi lm, will show footage to pump up foreign distribu- tors, as well as sell rights in the remaining available markets. And, in a fi nal twist, Exclusive’s Cannes of- fi ce is down the street from the festival headquarters, where Ramsay is now a jury member. racing movie Rush, starring Chris Hems- worth, sold out worldwide at AFM in 2011, but reshoots pushed its release from 2012 to the fall of this year. Two of the hottest titles at the last Cannes market, Kenny Ortega’s Dirty Dancing remake and Adam Hashemi’s comedy actioner Agent: Century 21 featuring Cameron Diaz, both have yet to begin shooting. “There are a lot of great fi lms at the market this year, from all over, but we have to hold back a bit,” says Alexander van Duelmen of A Company, which pre-bought Machete Kills and Sin City 2 for Russia. “We can only really plan for movies for 2015.” Alex Watson, president of sales at Exclu- sive Media, which is selling Agent: Century 21 worldwide, admits that production delays “are frustrating on all sides” and says sell- ers have to move quickly to manage the situation when a project gets pushed back. “These movies are really tentpoles for our buyers and they have to be able to plan their spending, their cash fl ow,” Watson says. “So if there is a delay, you have to communicate that immediately.” day1_news1-2E.indd 1 5/14/13 8:35 PM Meet us in Cannes: Red Bull Media House, Lérins S 13 SALES CONTACTS: Sophokles Tasioulis, Head of Cinema and International Theatrical Sales. +43-664-88684822, sophokles.tasioulis@at.redbullmediahouse.com Berend Dreier, International Sales. +43-664-88684857, berend.dreier@at.redbullmediahouse.com Rick van den Heuvel, Sales Consultant. +31-6-54768797, rick@magusent.com RMH1013023_130510_AZ_Hollywood_Reporter_Screening_StormSurfers.indd 1 Red Bull Media D1 051513.indd 1 5/10/13 3:48 PM THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER 4 G race of Monaco, starring Nicole Kidman, wasn’t finished in time for Cannes, but images of Kidman as Hollywood starlet-turned-princess Grace Kelly whet the appetite for Olivier Dahan’s historical drama.

(USA) The punctuation suggests the fi lmmakers never heard of a little franchise called Garfi eld. Or Puss in Boots, for that matter. Word is the fi lmmakers have a few more projects in the works: “Toys That Come Alive!?!” and “An Ogre Who’s Really Nice!?!” MOST INSULTING TO CANINE PRIDE An Easter Bunny Puppy (USA) Any dog down on her luck can turn rabid, but it takes true desperation to turn rabbit instead. This starving canine starlet will cross-dress for kibbles, but she won’t visit the Playboy Mansion. Hef would only make her his bitch. BEST MASHUP Disco Valley (India) So the Mayans were right: The world did end in 2012! But before it did, two dudes, a gal, Babe and the ghost of Herve Villechaize got together for the party of a lifetime. But aren’t we all a little tired of the disco-pig-beach-apocalypse-movie genre by now? BIGGEST HEAD SCRATCHER Ghost Dog (Australia) “Never sleep, never grow old” — these are just two of the cool things about being a ghost dog.
