How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days' Is Going to Be a TV Show!


How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days' Is Going to Be a TV Show!


But will it still take place over the titular timeline?

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days Premiere
One of the most highly referenced romantic comedies of the early 2000s is getting a TV show reboot. Per E! News, a modern revival of How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, which Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey famously led in 2003, is in development at the upcoming mobile-based streaming platform, Quibi.
Not much is known about the forthcoming project, but it will be written by Guy Branum. He's previously written on shows like The Mindy Project and Awkward.
Branum tweeted about the news on Thursday, assuring fans that he would be faithful to the guilty pleasure–worthy source material. "We were all certain you could not make a good romantic comedy anymore because print media is dead and RomCom ladies have to work at magazines, but against the tides of history, Quibi & Paramount have agreed to let me re-write "How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days"," he wrote. He replied to his original tweet with a gif of McConaughey in the movie, adding, "I will be observing and consulting numerous photos of shirtless Matthew McConaughey to properly research this task."
If you've been living under a rom-com rock, the original movie followed Composure columnist Andie Anderson (Hudson) and ad exec Benjamin Barry (McConaughey) as they each wager their own games of the heart. Ben is attempting to get a woman to fall in love with him in the allotted timespan, while Andie's mission is to lose him.
The movie's pop culture contributions included the term "frost yourself" and the "love fern." What will the TV show bring?

South Korea holds live fire drills

South Korea holds live-fire drills that simulate destroying North Korea's leadership "The reason they want it, I think, is they want to be able to either respond to North Korean provocation or they want North Korea to be aware that they have the capability to respond if North Korea goes too far," said Schuster, now a Hawaii Pacific University professor. "To an extent it's as much a political as an operational development that's important to South Korean self-confidence." Moon has sought to be "more accommodating" to North Korea than his predecessor and looked for nonmilitary ways to resolve the situation, Schuster said, but the North's recent actions have undermined public confidence in his policies. They have also alarmed South Korea's allies in the region and around the world. The United States responded this week to a series of missiles launches by North Korea -- one of them over Japan -- by staging a mock...

7 British artists that are bigger abroad

New post 7 British artists that are bigger abroad Monday 5th March 2018 Future  KLF  member Bill Drummond decided to call his late-70s post-punk band  Big in Japan , and that group also introduced us to  Lightning Seed  Ian Broudie and Holly Johnson, soon to be of  Frankie Goes to Hollywood . The name was a pun on what had become a music magazine cliché about Western groups hitting pay dirt in the East, and there were plenty of examples at the time, from  The Beatles , to  Queen , to the  Bay City Rollers . All those groups were, of course, huge news here too, but across the history of pop there have always been British acts that who have found greater fame elsewhere, and sometimes at the expense of being almost completely unknown in the UK...
