James Marsden To Star Opposite Elizabeth Banks In 'Walk Of Shame'

Posted byBy Joe Cohen | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

James Marsden had just signed on to star opposite Elizabeth Banks in Lakeshore Entertainment and Sidney Kimmel Entertainment’s Walk Of Shame, according to THR.

Walk Of Shame’s story centers around a high strung news anchor that, after a wild night out, finds herself locked out on the street with no phone, money, ID or car. Thereafter she embarks on a series of misadventures as she finds her way to the most important job interview of her life.

Tom Rosenberg and Gary Lucchesi will team up with Sindney Kimmel to produce the comedy screenplay that Steven Brill wrote. The film already has distribution from Film District for the United States.

Marsden has been quite busy lately, he will next be seen in the upcoming 2 Guns film, opposite Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg. He will also appear in The Butler, where he will portray President John F. Kennedy. Currently, he is working as Tina Fey’s love interest on NBC’s 30 Rock.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
