What is Casting Couch? It’s the casting news round-up that’s for some reason talking a lot about suicide today. Um…enjoy your weekend, everybody! Tired of Jeremy Renner playing the angry little tough guy in all his movies? Then maybe his next project, Kill The Messenger, is what you’ve been waiting for. Deadline confirms that Renner will be starring in this Michael Cuesta-directed feature that tells the true story of Gary Webb, a journalist who was the victim of a CIA smear campaign after he wrote articles accusing the organization of arming rebels in Nicaragua and aiding with the smuggling of cocaine into California. The mounting pressure of said smear campaign eventually got to the point where Webb took his own life, so don’t expect Renner to go into a rage and shoot his way out of this one. Instead, expect to see yourself leaving the theater puffy-faced and pretending that you’re not crying. Also out of Deadline is the news that Jim Carrey will star in a new comedy from Napoleon Dynamite director Jared Hess. This one is called Loomis Fargo, and it’s a heist movie about a bank worker and the co-worker he has a crush on robbing their employer of $20m and then being hilariously inept at covering their tracks afterward. It’s coming from a script by Emily Spivey, but is said to be based on a true story, so hopefully the movie doesn’t embarrass the subjects who inspired the story as they rot in jail or whatever.
