Following in the footsteps of Jennifer Garner and Claire Danes, it is rumored that Hollywood hottie Jessica Alba is in talks to star in a Broadway Spring 2008 revival of David Mamet’s Speed-the-Plow.
The play Speed-the-Plow is a satirical dissection of the American movie business, was first performed by the Lincoln Center Theater at NYC’s Royale Theater in 1988, with Madonna in the cast.
The play, which was directed by Gregory Mosher, ran for a total of 279 performances and was nominated for Best Play.
And while there is "no word yet on who will play the two male leads, but according to the NY Post, there's are talks that 'The Sopranos' stars James Gandolfini and Michael Imperioli are on the producers' wish list, with Gandolfini playing the brutal studio boss and Imperioli playing the desperate producer.”
