Comedian Rob Riggle, who has a role in Katherine's forthcoming movie "Killers", was recently interviewed by TV.com and he explained briefly what viewers can expect from the film:

"Killers" is going to be…it's an action comedy starring Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl, and I play Ashton's good friend. It should be a lot of fun. They shot in Europe, they shot here, it's got a James Bond-y comedic feel to it…I think it'll be a fun movie.

One For The Money

It was recently announced that Katherine is set to star as Stephanie Plum in a new Columbia Pictures and Lakeshore Entertainment production called "One for the Money" based on the novels by author Janet Evanovich.

The author spoke with Variety in article about novelists and Hollywood, sharing some of her thoughts about the adaptation and the time taken for the movie to reach the production stage:

Janet Evanovich never thought she'd have to wait this long to see "One for the Money" developed into a movie. She sold it to TriStar for $1 million in 1994, before it hit stores. Over the years, Jennifer Lopez and Reese Witherspoon have been bandied about as potential stars for the adaptation, which producer Wendy Finerman has been shepherding from the start.

"It seems like a no brainer -- there have been all these shows about bounty hunters -- but my poor little project just has never gotten off the ground," Evanovich says. "I would like to see it happen very badly. In the beginning if it had been made, it would have really benefitted my sales. At this point, it would be the reverse. I have a readership of five to six million."

As far as Evanovich is concerned, there's no downside to a movie adaptation: "My feeling has always been, if the movie sucks, people are the going to say the book's better, and if the movie's good, more people are going to read the book."

At first, Evanovich admits, she couldn't understand why she wasn't asked to write the adaptation. Now that she knows more about the development process she's happy to have others undertake the screenwriting, which is far more collaborative than fiction writing. The project has already had more than seven writers take a pass at it.

Adapting "One for the Money" at this stage in the franchise has gotten trickier, she notes, due to the passage of time and evolution of the character. "It's kind of a double-edged sword. It would have been better to come out in the beginning," Evanovich says. "On the other hand, there's a built-in audience."
