Penntertainment

His movie’s got a little bit of Glee and Swank to it

UPenn and Mike Karz and Robert DeNiro and Lea Michele and Glee

Just a bit of fun casting news regarding Mike Karz (C’89, W’89) follow-up film to his last year’s Valentine’s Day.

In his upcoming “New Year’s Eve” film, the following stars are reported to be attached: Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Hilary Swank, Ashton Kutcher, Lea Michele and Abigail Breslin.

Per the Hollywood Reporter,

“De Niro will play a bitter dying man in a hospital, while Pfeiffer will be a frustrated executive secretary who decides to tackle her unfulfilled resolutions. Swank would play a producer of the famed Times Square New Year’s Eve show. Kutcher would play a guy who hates New Year’s Eve.” (source)

So many stars in one film! As noted HERE, Mike figured out the formula to making this all happen.

What People Are Saying

"Because of Penntertainment, I got scouted for Nickelodeon. I had such a great time talking with them. I may be a resource for a show on science, travel, geography, gender etc. Thanks for all you do. It really makes a difference."
