Sunday Musings: Something Old & Something Reinvented




Good morning, all!  Happy Sunday from Narnia Dispatches; how is everyone?  :-)

When last we left Jake Gyllenhaal in 50 Ways to Occupy Jake's Twitter Timeline , we were looking at the elongated way of stretching a story rumor and sort of tipping our cap towards such "talent".  ;-)  Well, Jake's social media team is also well familiar with how to reinvent a story and stuff a timeline.  

In May of last year, the announcement was made that Jake and Benedict Cumberbatch were going to star in a movie together; the flick would be called Rio. 


 

Call Me By Your Name director Luca Guadagnino was soon attached to the film.  As if one director mention wasn't enough, how about inserting, or is it shoehorning the well-respected director, Christopher Nolan?


 

"Spotted", but we had no pictures of this star-studded sighting.  Ahem. Next, let's add Michelle Williams to the mix:


 
At the same time, all of a sudden, the movie changed names to, Let It Fall Back.



In May of this year, things began to unravel. Rio/Let It Fall Back was to start filming earlier this summer, but Michelle was papped in New York City working on another film and Jake?  Well, Jake was supposedly working on the quickly announced Spiderman: Far From Home in London.  In July, it was pointed out (by a Jake blog "anonymous commenter") that Luca Guadagnino was no longer attached to the film, despite mentioning in a Nov 2017 video that he was anticipating and on board for future production.  



Then.

Just like The Great Pumpkin, I mean - Snoopy rising from the pumpkin patch, the movie Rio, I mean Let It Fall Back, I mean RIO.... rose from the Twitter Patch!


and it is Game On.  Again.

 
Same actors.  Aah, but a new director.  And an Old/New name again - Rio --> Let It Fall Back --> Rio.  And a new round of robot tweets to go along with the revived project.







Although details are hazy?  What does that mean?




We are moving into week two of this "latest news", repackaged to make it seem new again, helping to fill up and occupy Jake's media search. ;-)  See how that works?


 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 

Making old things new again is a form of green waste recycling utilized by social media teams, each borrowing from one other and "re-using" tried and true tactics.  Take, for example, the GPS placement that Soul Cycle provides.  And, never doubt that we at Narnia are very familiar with this popular stunting venue because Jake Gyllenhaal is well-known to be all about the spin.

Given the rumors associated with the following list of celebrities, it would appear that Soul Cycle serves a purpose other than a "good workout".

                                                                      David & Victoria Beckham

                                                                                              Jennifer Garner

                                                                                 Reese Witherspoon

Vanessa Hudgens
Selena Gomez
Justin Bieber
Katie Holmes
Beyonce & JayZ
Minka Kelly
Oprah
Lea Michele
Anne Hathaway
Julianne Hough
Olivia Wilde
Busy Phillips and husband Marc Silverstein
Charlize Theron
Kaley Cuoco

And did I mention Jake?  LOL.  


Jake began to be "spotted" at Soul Cycle classes when WME/IMG/Endeavor began their campaign of planting Jake as having "moved" to New York City. It was a consistent, reliable and easy way of having him seen and GPS'd in the Big Apple.

Although Jake never incorporated an LGBT support fundraiser into his sightings. Leave that to the Ackles, complete with the Fam Be*r Business promo, and can't-miss rainbow avatar and rainbow socks on the beard. 




Hmm, we see.  Let's check that care-o-meter on these two...


LOLLLL!!  Darn that care-o-meter.  It crashed, didn't it?  They're just standing there and they don't care, folks.  They know that we know the irony of the whole fundraising appearance.  And they don't care.  It's a new age closet.  At least money was raised for a great cause and good for the youth who must have had a good time.  As for the rest?  Well, we've made our point clear on the rest. Let's move along to a better moment.

 Here's Jensen with his and Jared's twins.  Courtesy of Jensen's beard's twitter:

I know, I know......LOL!  I'm a sucker for those Padackles twins. Also saw a bit of JJ in the video as well.

Where was Jared?  Well, supposedly he was at a Texas Longhorn home game, although this author is not sold completely.  Looks like the fellas had to put in some Austin time this weekend.  The shine of a heightened spotlight has been cutting into that exclusive Vancouver time, perhaps?  ;-)  Just a bit?  It is one of the visible differences from Harry/Louis and Jensen/Jared.  Their fandoms are such that their fans watch them like hawks and there are more of them than those who watch Jake/Austin.  Fandom size doesn't stop the stunting and separation, but Jake and Austin can get away with more quietness than the other four.

A few tweet highlights:


 

Same, Liam, same.

And here is Liam sharply sporting the white T and some splendid checkered shorts.  



Someone on tumblr identified the pink shorts dude as Liam's "trainer" Lawrence Hannah.  
Eyebrow Raise GIF from Eyebrow GIFs

 lol.

Here's another Narnia fave, Josh Duhamel.  He tweeted that he was finishing the final edit on his first directing project, Buddy Games. 


 


Josh looking fantistic-o, isn't he?

 And finally, this is an eye opener.  Can you say loaded?



 What is the book about?  We're just going to drop this here and let readers just think about it for a nano second.
 

The Lost Daughter, translated by Ann Goldstein, is a standalone novel that follows teacher and mother Leda whose children leave home to stay with her ex-husband for a time. She expects to be lonely but instead feels liberated by her children’s departure. She takes a vacation in a small seaside town in the south of Italy and encounters a family whose presence leads her to think about the difficult and unconventional choices she has made in her life as a mother and woman. “The apparently serene tale of a woman’s pleasant rediscovery of herself soon becomes the story of a ferocious confrontation with an unsettled past.” - Perhaps just a different country is used to try and throw us off lol

As her "husband" Peter said in this 2012 interchange with actor and long time friend Ebon Moss-Bachrach,

"You know, you always pick roles based off of, or you know, you get involved with things based off of, you know, what's gonna help you in your life and hopefully you learn something from everything you do." - High Falls Unscripted with Peter Sarsgaard and Ebon Moss-Bachrach on You Tube

Based off of what's going on in your life at the present time perhaps?  This whole movie concept and the fact that Maggie is supposed to pen the screenplay, I've not seen such a loaded baked potato.  Should be quite interesting, let's put it that way.

A shorty post today, that's all we've got for now.  Enjoy the day, Go Chiefs! and Go Royals!!
