“EW is reporting that rising star Bradley Cooper has traded in his role in an upcoming McG-directed spy comedy called This Is War for The Hangover 2. War is about two best friends spies whose relationship falls apart when they both fall for the same woman (Reese Witherspoon).

Twentieth Century Fox confirms Cooper’s departure from This Is War, citing scheduling conflicts with The Hangover 2 as the reason.(…) This Is War is apparently considered a high priority for Fox (although the 12 years in gestation doesn’t suggest that…) but it’s not clear what direction Fox is heading in now, including who they will get to replace Cooper. The Proposal’s Ryan Reynolds will probably be getting a call pretty soon.”

So far, the cast includes Reese Witherspoon (voice of Merida), Emma Thompson (voice of Queen Elinor), Julie Walters (voice of the Witch) and Billy Connolly (voice of King Fergus).

Other upcoming Pixar projects that we will tell you about later include Newt and Monster Inc. 2.

The plot sounds very “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” yet in “This Means War” the spies who turn on each other are best friends rather than husband and wife. It’s that classic story of a woman coming between two guys and ruining their friendship. Or, can I please, please presume that Witherspoon is one of the friends, not the object of affection for two men?

That would be a bold twist that Fox likely wouldn’t explore. Too “Being John Malkovich,” not enough “There’s Something About Mary” or “Feeling Minnesota” (all these films star Cameron Diaz, coincidentally). Of course, the Hollywood ending would probably cop out and suppress the lesbianism aspect by having Cooper and Witherspoon’s spy buddies make up, make out and fall in love with each other. Probably because that dream woman (cast Diaz!) turns out to be a bad guy or something.

Whatever the case, if McG is on board, I’m still looking forward to this. I’m one of the few people not embarrassed to say I like both “Charlie’s Angels” movies and really enjoyed the director’s “Terminator” sequel and ideas for continuing the series. I could definitely see him doing something fun along the lines of the “Charlie’s” movies combined with “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.”

I also urge all McG haters out there to watch the director in the FunnyOrDie video where he’s directing Rachel Bilson in a sex scene for a fake film called “Hearts of Palm.” Hilarious and disturbing.

Actress Kathryn Hahn (Crossing Jordan) — who plays a pregnant secretary in the film — is pregnant in real life. She went into labor after her water broke during filming Saturday.

On Monday morning, after a grueling two days of labor, Hahn reaped the fruits of her labor: Mae, a 5-pound girl.

Though her due date was originally projected as September, the unexpected birth doesn’t throw a monkey wrench into the plans of the film’s producers, who expected Hahn to give birth after filming wrapped — the actress had only one day left to film, and will finish the rest of her scenes when she has recovered.

The film also stars Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson.

The initial project, which was to be directed by Jay Roach, centred on cloned men who were traded by women. Stiller and Carrey were to play obsolete models who go in search of ‘Mantopia’, but the film was cancelled as the budget spiralled past $100 million.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, studio 20th Century Fox is moving forward with the film again, changing the story to focus on the relationship between Stiller’s character and Witherspoon’s clone owner.

Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (“Little Miss Sunshine”) are in talks to direct. Dave Guion, Michael Handelman and Mickey Birnbaum wrote the script.

Variety reports Fox Searchlight has acquired the darkly comic subject matter as a starring vehicle for Reese Witherspoon. The Oscar winner will co-produce the project and first-time screenwriter Ben Queen, best known for creating the failed TV show “Drive,” will handle the adaptation. No director is on board at this time.

The original “Nice” was centered on a magazine writer who kills her boyfriend by accident. Hardly a melodrama, she discovers a way to get rid of the bod and comes to the realization that killing boyfriends is easier than breaking up with them.

The project was initially set up by Warner Bros. for Helen Hunt to star in, but the studio mistakenly tried to remove the darker elements and the project fell apart. Searchlight intends to be more faithful to the book.

“Nice” isn’t the only Fox Searchlight picture on Witherspoon’s agenda. She’s expected to star opposite Sacha Baron Cohen in Alexander Payne’s “Downsizing” which should land at the mini-major. Later this summer, Witherspoon should begin shooting with Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson in James L. Brooks’ new untitled comedy.
