OLGA KURYLENKO JOINS
RUSSELL CROWE IN WW1 EPIC 'THE WATER DIVINER'
After getting Amanda Seyfried for his costar in FATHERS AND DAUGHTERS drama earlier this weekend, Russell Crowe has found yet another gorgeous lady to star with him in another of his upcoming films. "The Hollywood Reporter' writes that stunning Ukrainian actress Olga Kurylenko will join him in THE WATER DIVINER, which will also be Russell's directorial debut. The historical drama is an epic adventure and an emotional story set soon after the end of World War I in the sweeping landscape when an Australian father arrives in Turkey in search of his three sons, supposedly lost in the legendary battle of Gallipoli. You will also see Olga soon in EMPIRES OF THE DEEP as the underwater empress and also in VAMPIRE ACADEMY.
DEZZY'S HISTORY LESSON
Gallipoli Battle was one of the biggest allied losses. It was fought by British and French armies battling for the city of Istanbul and the Gallipoli peninsula against the Ottoman forces. The aim was to secure a sea route to Russia. Many Australian and New Zealand soldiers fought as well and the campaign is often considered to mark the birth of national consciousness in those two countries.

BEN WHISHAW TO PLAY
QUEEN'S FREDDIE MERCURY?
And after previous rumours that Dominic Cooper could take the lead role in the biopic on famous FREDDIE MERCURY, the late singer of the legendary pop band Queen, we have new ones: the word has it that the new candidate for the role is Ben Whishaw from SKYFALL, PERFUME and HOLLOW CROWN. The members of Queen see the young British actor as their personal favourite to play their band leader who died of AIDS after giving the world some of the most famous pop classics from WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER, BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY to WE WANT IT ALL and I WANT TO BREAK FREE.
