Elevation Pictures x Mr. Will want to give Readers a chance to win Run-of-Engagement Passes to see TIFF ’17 selection, THE DISASTER ARTIST, based on Greg Sestero‘s Memoir about his experience working on Tommy Wiseau‘s Cult Classic, THE ROOM.
Synopsis:
A behind-the-scenes look at the making of Tommy Wiseau‘s The Room (2003), starring Tommy (James Franco) and his best friend, actor Greg Sestero (Dave Franco). The two met during an acting workshop, when Greg was just an aspiring actor.
Tommy takes Greg under his wing, setting him up in Los Angeles in an apartment Tommy rarely uses. While Greg soon finds an agent (Sharon Stone) and a girlfriend (Alison Brie), Tommy isn’t as lucky, so he decides to write, direct and star in his own movie, despite lacking talent in any of those areas.
The Room, made on a production budget of $6,000, was notoriously awful. It opened in two Los Angeles theaters in June 2003 and grossed a pitiful $1,200, but in a twist of fate, went on to earn a cult following, earning the dubious honor of being dubbed “the Citizen Kane of bad movies.”

Review by Amanda Gilmore for Mr. Will Wong
The Disaster Artist chronicles Writer/Director Tommy Wiseau (James Franco) through the development, production and shocking success of the cult classic The Room.
The Film’s script could’ve become a mean mockery of Wiseau’s dream but instead it depicts an empathetic character study of him, all while being uproariously funny. It has a terrific transformative lead performance from Franco, a strong supporting cast, and many hilarious cameos. Franco becomes Wiseau in what is one of his greatest performances to date. Fans of The Room will not be disappointed with this comedic portrayal of how the beloved cult classic got made.
The Disaster Artist screens at TIFF on Sept. 11 at Ryerson Theatre at 11:59PM, and Sept. 12 at Scotiabank Theatre #1 at 6:45PM.

Australian Actor Daniel Webber is a bit of an intriguing sort. The young star who has an extensive Résumé including TIFF Selection Sleeping Beauty, just arrived in Toronto and is set to begin filming next week on eagerly-awaited Hulu Series 11-22-63, based upon the Novel of the same name by Stephen King. Starring James Franco, the Series is about a Time Traveler who tries to go back in time to stop the Kennedy assassination.
We spotted Webber after a visit to the Wardrobe Department, his hair colour being prepped to replicate a young Lee Harvey Oswald (the Sniper who assassinated JFK) he will portray and he was lovely taking time to chat about his role, which will see him extremely busy these next few weeks! He found it amusing he even was asked for an Autograph and recognized, laughing “You guys are hilarious!”.

Based on the Stephen King Novel about a Time Traveler who goes back in time to try and stop the assassination for Robert J. Kennedy, 11-22-63 has been filming in the Greater Toronto Area this Summer under the guidance of Kevin MacDonald (The Last King of Scotland), starring James Franco. In recent weeks, filming has moved to Hamilton and Guelph.
We spotted one of its stars, George MacKay out and about this weekend and although he might be unfamiliar to many, Film Lovers will recognize him from TIFF ’14 Selection, PRIDE which played to a standing ovation. He tells me that he unfortunately couldn’t make it for the Festival last September, while most of his Co-Stars did, but meeting him randomly more than makes up for his absence!
11-22-63 films here through October, so expect to see some its Cast out and about come TIFF! Hulu will be streaming the exciting new Series.

You must see this hilarious sketch from self-professed “Guy’s Girl” Liz (Nick Kroll) from Comedy Central‘s The Nick Kroll Show! Somehow she thinks that James Franco and Seth Rogen‘s new Film The Interview is actually about an assassination attempt on Kim Kardashian. Yeah, no. You’ll just love her Publicity advice for the Duo. LOL.
It’s totally NSFW and you might get a bit queasy at the display of affection. You’ve been warned. Enjoy!
