Mel Gibson secures "The Beaver"
11 Jul 2009 By Nicola West (Editor/Writer (UK))
Previously linked to Steve Carell and more recently linked to Jim Carrey, "The Beaver" looks like it's gone to Mel Gibson, to be directed by and co-starring Jodie Foster, neither of whom are famous for their ability to deliver comedic lines.
The film will see Gibson playing Walter Black, a father of two and depressed man who finds solace in wearing a beaver hand-puppet. Foster will play the role of the man�s wife. The film is hoping to be made within the $20 million range.
Time will tell if this is a good combination.
