The work doesn't stop, even if it is May 2-4 (don't get me started on a long weekend where the signature date isn't until next weekend...). Here are some casting scoops from Variety:

Jenna Jameson. She's already been labeled The Queen of Porn, having appeared in over one hundred adult movies, and now, slowly, she's been inching her way into mainstream cinema. She had a role in Private Parts; more recently, she was a zombie stripper. Now, she's got herself a starring gig in War of the Dragon. From writer/producer/director Stan Derain, the film is about "a psychic and a martial arts expert who team to find the killers of their mothers." There's no word on who she'll play. Could it be a mom? That might kill her porn cred a little. Meanwhile, I wonder how she's doing with that biopic of hers since Scarlett gave her a big fat no?

In other news, Liza Lapira, who has been on a slew of television shows from Monk to Law & Order, plus big-screen gigs like Cloverfield and the upcoming Repossession Mambo, has picked up a role in the latest Fast sequel, The Fast and the Furious 4 -- aka -- Fast and Furious. She'll play FBI Agent Sophie Trinh, who, according to this link, is a friend of Brian's who helps him find James Park.
