Vince Vaughn has played a lot of different roles throughout his long career. On Friday the 13th in November, he will play one he has never done before. He is a serial killer trapped in a teenage girl’s body. Freaky, right? That is why the film is called just that, Freaky.
Seventeen-year-old Millie Kessler (Kathryn Newton) is about to be killed by the serial killer known as Butcher (Vaughn) when somehow they wind up switching bodies. They have just 24 hours to reverse the curse, or they will stay in the other person’s body forever.
While Millie and her friends Nyla (Celeste O’Connor), Joshua (Misha Osherovich), and Booker (Uriah Shelton) try to get her back into her body, Butcher is butchering the student body at her high school.
Freaky is written and directed by Christopher Landon. The man who gave us Happy Death Day, the best horror franchise of the 2010s. Therefore, I know it is going to be good. Especially since it looks like Vaughn is giving an Oscar-winning performance. He is like so totally believable as a teenage girl.
Vince Vaughn was driving yesterday when he was stopped at a DUI checkpoint at 12:30a in Manhattan Beach, Ca. When the officers got to him, he and his passenger were arrested according to KABC. The actor was taken into custody for suspicion of DUI, his passenger for suspicion of public intoxication and both were also charged with resisting arrest.
After they were taken to the station, they were booked and eventually released on bail. Before he left jail, he took this mugshot. I know it is wrong to say, but this is one of his best photos.
Can you imagine anyone but Matt LeBlanc playing Joey on Friends? I can’t, but Esquire UK says there was another actor who was up for the role. That actor is Vince Vaughn, but casting director Ellie Janner didn’t think he was as right for the part as LeBlanc.
I think we can all agree she has a good knack for talent. Had she gone with Vaughn, I don’t think we would have ever gotten the Joey spinoff. Oh wait, that would’ve been a good thing.
Colin Farrell was a guest on The Tonight Show yesterday and Jimmy Fallon challenged him to a game of True Confessions. Basically Farrell, Fallon and Vince Vaughn were all given two envelopes, one was filled with a truth about the person and the other one contained a lie. Then after they read the contents the other two got to question them for :60 seconds. When they were done, the other two players had to guess if the other one was telling the truth or a lie.
Farrell went first, and his envelope said, “When I was a late teen I got brought in for questioning as a suspect in an attempted murder.” As they were questioning him, he admitted that when the cops showed a sketch of the suspect he thought the guy looked at him. Then he realized he had a blackout the night of the crime, and he started to wonder if he was the one who did it.
So did he do it? No, as he explained, “Thankfully a friend of mine kept a journal and that particular night and at that particular time we were at a party on the other side of town doing ecstasy.” In other words, he had committed a crime, just not the one he was brought in for.
Then it was time for Jimmy Fallon’s confession and he got his head stuck in a fence when he was kid. Explains a lot, no?
