The Happenning: Movie Release 2008

Philadelphia hosted work in August for 'The Happening', starring Mark Wahlberg and Zooey Deschanel. Wahlberg you know of, but Deschanel's been working her way to the top of the food chain from modeling, lesser known movies and roles, learning to make bridges, and finally making a classic lesbian stereotyped character role sexy again for heterosexual males in America.
Can't follow? She's the lead female actor in Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy.
The writer/director for this movie is the same one behind the upcoming live version "Avatar: The Last Air Bender"...that is IF they can get past negotiations and bickering over titles. James Cameron's 'Avatar' is scheduled for 2009, and he's miffed a bit.

Factoid: The movie at this time is being financed by both Fox and a company from India, who will have the market there while Fox maintains in it's territories...which amounts to the rest of the world, basically.
