Billy Crudup Signs Up To Eat Love And Pray image
I’ve seen way too much of Billy Crudup. That would have been a bad thing if Watchmen weren’t so great, but instead, it ended up showing how far Zack Snyder was willing to go for his adaptation. It’s hard enough to justify a blue penis in even the raunchiest of comedies, much less a philosophical superhero drama.

We won’t be seeing Crudup’s manhood in his next role, though. Variety reports that Billy has signed on to star in the adaptation of Elizabeth Gilbert’s hit memoir, Eat, Pray, Love. Crudup will play the ever-sympathetic baxter of the movie: Gilbert’s husband, whose desire for a typical domestic lifestyle pushes Gilbert to leave him and explore new things. Crudup joins Julia Roberts, Javier Bardem and Richard Jenkins.

The book was popular amongst the Oprah crowd, and with this cast and the right type of promotion (i.e. the Oprah promotion), the filmmakers will definitely have a hit on their hand. I prefer Gilbert’s fiction, to be honest. Don’t get me wrong. Eating and loving are both amazing and all, but I just can’t get behind the praying. Booooring.
