Young Adult Reunion: Now with Pictures

by Murtada

As previously mentioned, the three principals of Young Adult - writer Diablo Cody, director Jason Reitman and star Charlize Theron - are reuniting for a new movie. Now there is evidence it will only be a matter of months before we can see it. Tully started shooting in Vancouver and there are pictures to prove it. This is cause for some excitement around these parts where there are many Young Adult fans, no?

The new comedy tells the story of Marlo (Theron) — a mother of three, including a newborn — who is gifted a night nanny by her brother. Hesitant at the extravagance at first, she comes to form a unique bond with the thoughtful, surprising and sometimes challenging young nanny named Tully (played by Mackenzie Davis). You might know Davis from The Martian (2015) or the AMC TV show Halt and Catch Fire, this though looks to possibly be her big breakout, playing the title character and all. Ron Livingston - who will always be remembered as Carrie's awful boyfriend Jack Berger Post-It Man in Sex and the City- is also in the cast. Let's hope he's not as awful this time, if he's playing Theron's partner.

What do you think of Charlize's new look, padding or pounds?

Berger wasn't an awful boyfriend. How he broke up with Carrie was awful.

Murtada: In some circles, including around here, yes. In others, he'll be more remembered for Office Space.

YA was the best film of 2011 and Theron that years rightful Best Actress.

Sorry to correct your spelling, Murtada, but this is not the first time I see this error in TFE. That should be "the three principals", not "the three principles". "Principles" are beliefs you abide by and hold dear.

I'm always amazed by actors who put on all that weight just for a role. It's so hard to lose it afterwards (for the rest of mortals, at least).

I primarily think of Ron Livingston as Rosemarie DeWitt's husband, so he can do no wrong in my eyes.

Marcos - thanks for the correction... fixed!

Also I never would've thought that most of the comments would be about Ron Livingston.

Murtada - you and me both. but that's what i associate him with, too.

Our most beautiful and iconic actresses have officially all moved on to mom roles.

Padding, not pounds. Charlize forever!

Until seeing that photo, I always thought Ron Livingston (5' 10½") was tall (like 6' 2")...

Loved Young Adult. Love love Theron. Intrigued by Davis. Can't wait for this!
