Trailer for 'Accidental Love', formerly David O. Russell's 'Nailed'

Filmed way back in 2008 and faced with more than a dozen production shutdowns, few thought David O. Russell's comedy Nailed would ever see the light of day. Well, now it will....sorta. The star-studded film has been given the bland title of Accidental Love, and is directed by some guy named Stephen Greene, which is clearly a pseudonym of the Alan Smithee variety. Clearly, Russell wants nothing to do with the project anymore, and given how bad this trailer is it's easy to see why.

Starring Jessica Biel, Jake Gyllenhaal, James Marsden, Catherine Keener, James Brolin, Tracy Morgan, and many more, Accidental Love is a political satire about a woman who is accidentally shot in the head with a nail gun, giving her fits of rage and sexual desire. Unable to afford health insurance to treat the ailment, she hooks up with a slimy politician and heads to Washington to champion for the rights of the bizarrely injured. This trailer is a complete mess and seems stitched together with spit and bailing wire, which is probably what Millennium Entertainment did in trying to salvage it.

If there's a positive to be taken from this it's that Accidental Love will finally open on February 10th, putting a nail in Nailed's coffin for good.

Juliette Binoche Digs Up 'The 33'; Dustin Hoffman Joins Lance Armstrong Pic; Olivia Cooke Plays 'Ouija'

* The cast of Chilean miner drama The 33 has been rounded out with the additions of Juliette Binoche, James Brolin, Oscar Nunez, Kate Del Castillo, Lou Diamond Phillips, Mario Casas, Juan Pablo Raba, Tenoch Huerta, Jacob Vargas, Marco Trevino and Alejandro Goic. They join the already-cast Antonio Banderas in the film directed by Patricia Riggin that chronicles the true story of the 33 miners who became famous in 2010 when they were trapped in a collapsed mine for 69 days. The film has been in development practically while they were still underground, but has the full support of the miners, their families, and the rescuers. [Deadline]

* Stephen Frears' Lance Armstrong biopic may not have a title but the cast is coming together quite nicely. Filming is taking place now in Europe with Ben Foster as the disgraced cyclist, and now the latest to join is screen legend Dustin Hoffman. Chris O'Dowd, Jesse Plemons, and Guillaume Canet co-star in the film written by John Hodge (Trance) and based on David Walsh's book, Seven Deadly Sins: My Pursuit Of Lance Armstrong.

*  Bates Motel star Olivia Cooke has joined the previously-announced Douglas Smith and Daren Kagasoff in Ouija, the upcoming horror based on the "spooky" board game you played with friends at night. Directed and co-written by Stiles White, the film follows a group of friends who realize that a deceased friend had been messin' around with a Ouija board before she died. This sounds terrible but with Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes teaming up with Blumhouse Productions on this one, perhaps it could be a surprise low-budget horror hit?
