John Malkovich has signed on to play a magician in THE GREAT BUCK HOWARD. The movie will be directed by Sean McGinly and also stars Tom Hanks and Colin Hanks.

The story follows a renowned illusionist whose career is going downhill. A kid fresh out of school (Colin Hanks) becomes the magician's assistant, but his father (Tom Hanks) is not exactly happy about the career choice.

The movie is expected to begin filming in July of 2006.

What`s with all the magician driven movies coming out?

Magic is apparently very hot.

Movies always come out in pairs or threes. Ones usually good others suck, but not always.

Example: armegedon, deep impact
I could name a lot more, but I'd probably spell them wrong too.

Could someone please kill Tom Hanks already?

Well, Mallkovich is a phenominal actor (Dangerous Liasons, anyone?). He' turn this role into a movie worth watching. :-)

Is Tom Hanks and Colin Hanks related? Long live Tom Hanks. He's a great actor. I have always enjoyed his movies. Well, except for Joe vs the Volcano. That one was out there. I loved Forest Gump. I'll probably see this one.

Tom Hanks is Colin's father in real life.

Joe vs. the Volcano is a classic. One of the coolest parodies on modern day office life. I gets silly towards the end, but the office life scenes are just great.
