As if ruining Valentine's Day and New Year's Eve wasn't enough, director Garry Marshall has set his sights on taking down another holiday with a star-studded movie featuring insipid, loosely-connected stories.
Deadline reports Marshall is helming "Mother's Day," with Julia Roberts on board to star. Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson, and Jason Sudeikis are in talks to join her. The film will tell "intertwining stories about the lives of several mothers as the title holiday approaches." Ugh. What did mothers ever do to you, Garry?
If you recall, Marshall has wreaked this havoc before with
"Valentine's Day," which also starred Roberts (as well as
Bradley Cooper and
Taylor Swift), and
"New Year's Eve" with
Halle Berry,
Jessica Biel, and
Zac Efron. The former has an 18 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes; the latter has
7 percent.
Of "New Year's Eve," the great
Roger Ebert wrote: It "is a dreary plod through the sands of time until finally the last grain has trickled through the hourglass of cinematic sludge. How is it possible to assemble more than two dozen stars in a movie and find nothing interesting for any of them to do?" (The man was a god. RIP.)
We shudder to think which holiday Marshall will go after next. It'd better not be Thanksgiving!
