Three of Hollywood’s stars have teamed up for a new movie about the high-stakes world of online gambling. A new Hollywood movie about online gambling is reported to have Bruce Willis, Justin Timberlake and Catherine Zeta-Jones on its role list. Yes Catherine the Great, will provide the sex and appeal that the aging Willis and the over exposed Timberlake may not offer. Ok, I am a Zeta fan. So, give me a break. I have revealed my carnal bias and predisposition.

Also not long after the producers of poker classic “Rounders” revealed plans of an upcoming sequel, another project  caught the attention of gambling movie fans across the globe. Hold em Poker 

Several movie websites have just revealed that a new movie about online gambling is underway. “Lay the Favorite, Take the Dog” is the new addition to the family and Bruce Willis has the role of Douglas ‘Dink’ Heimowitz, who introduces the main character Beth Raymer to the gambling world. According to various magazine insiders, the new movie will portray the rise of online gambling in the late 90′s.

The film is being directed by Stephen Frears and is based on the book of the same name by Beth Raymer, who fell into the world of men who made a livelihood from betting. She’d just left college in Florida before working at several betting agencies here, where she placed bets on behalf of her bosses. She says their gambling was barely on the right side of the law and sometimes not.

Bruce has already arrived in town and enjoyed dinner last night with a group of friends in a private dining room at Strip House at Planet Hollywood. Free Texas Holdem 

Based on cocktail waitress Beth Raymer’s memoirs, the movie will see Bruce Willis in the starring role as “Dink”, a gambler down on his luck, while Zeta-Jones and Timberlake are alleged to be in talks with producers from Focus Films regarding their own leading roles.

The story of Beth Raymer takes its point of departure when she is seven years old and introduced to gambling for the first time by her race dog fanatic father. Later on, she would team up with a group of math whiz kids to become a major player in the world of online sports gambling.

Movies with gambling themes are certainly not a new phenomenon, but they still tend to attract much attention. Among other Rounder’s and Ocean’s Eleven, etc. has had many people going to the movie theaters. There’s little to go on surrounding the forthcoming production of this movie.

So, back to my Zeta movie. Can the director and the movie cast provide the same chemistry and excitement that was displayed in Rounder’s and the Ocean Eleven? It may be hard to capture the magic of those movies. However, if Catherine is feature prominently and often in this film then you can bet I will be watching. And to all the Justin female groupies that want to see more of the already overexposed Timberlake, you will also get your wish.
