Matthew Fox Got Drunk And Punched A Bus Driver In The Vagina

Well, the title pretty much says it all but Lost and Party of Five star Matthew Fox got drunk this weekend in Cleveland. He then went ahead and punched a female busdriver in her assorted lady-parts (as one does after tipping a few back) before she clocked him in the face. Bizarre. Let’s hear her side of things.

TMZ spoke with Heather Bormann … who tells us she was driving a party bus for a private party Saturday night in Cleveland — when Fox boarded the vehicle.

Bormann claims she told Fox he wasn’t welcome on the bus — but he was too drunk to understand.

Bormann says, “He just kept staring at me with his mouth wide open and not saying anything. I told him, ‘You have to leave buddy. You are trespassing on my bus.’”

That’s when Fox “leaned in and started punching my crotch and breast.”

Bormann says, “I took one hand to his jaw and he was spitting blood. He stumbled backwards.”

Ouch. This is going to be a PR nightmare. But I’m sure Fox is relieved he didn’t get another nonsense tattoo. (TMZ)

Ed Harris & Matthew Fox Won’t Enlist In ‘World War Z’

Matthew Fox and Ed Harris won’t protect us from the zombie scourge after all. Both actors were in talks to appear in Marc Forster‘s World War Z but have now dropped out. With production already underway, filmmakers are scrambling to find replacements and can’t think of any other actors Ed Harrisish enough for the part.

Fox has a scheduling conflict with his prior commitment to try to kill Madea in I, Alex Cross. Harris didn’t provide a reason for exit from the film but let’s just assume it also involves trying to kill Madea. Someone needs to step up and do it. (Vulture)

Ed Harris & Matthew Fox On The Ready-Line For ‘World War Z’

Matthew Fox and Ed Harris have joined the ranks of those who have sworn to protect us from the threat of undead scum. Both actors have signed on to Marc Forster‘s World War Z. Also joining them is French actress Julia Levy-Boeken.

Harris’s role is unspecified and Fox is credited for the role of “Parajumper.” I’m not sure how closely the film will stick to Max Brooks‘ source material (it seems to have weaved away somewhat already) but there is a vignette in the book that follows a female pilot crash-landed in a zombie infested jungle. Could this role now belong to Fox? Dude is the go-to actor for getting stranded in jungles. (via Deadline and Bloody Disgusting)

Matthew Fox Will Start Killing People For Money

You might now Matthew Fox from the popular TV show “Lost,” about the island or whatever. Now, he’s going to play a role that might provide an opportunity for him to knock one out of the park: An evil killer in the reboot of James Petterson’s Alex Cross series I, Alex Cross. Here’s a more involved description of the character:

“Fox plays Michael Sullivan, who kills both for money and thrills. He’s known as the Butcher of Sligo and shows why after Cross thwarts one of his killing attempts. Sullivan makes his retribution personal, by killing the detective’s wife in gruesome fashion. Then it becomes a mano a mano battle between them.”

Yikes! Cross, by the way, is being played by Tyler Perry, who up to this point is best known for wearing a dress and claiming to not be afraid of no po-po. Even if this movie is terrible, it will probably still be sort of interesting. (via Deadline)

‘Lost: The Final Season’ Teaser Shows You So Much of Nothing

Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000

If you’d like to know absolutely nothing about what’s happening on the next and final season of LOST then watch the teaser trailer below. It’ll give you so much of nothing that you’ll be begging for more nothing. According to E! Online:

I’m hearing from Lost sources that every single shot of the first few episodes are so revealing that the producers have convinced ABC to NOT SHOW A SINGLE FRAME before the new season airs. No promo scenes, no photos, no nada! So you will be completely in the dark, but it is for good reason: The twists they’re planning are so good, you will WANT to be surprised. Trust me. Your mind gonna go kaplewey.

Alright, if the lack of information and footage is because they’re readying a twist that’s going to turn my world inside out than I’ll wait semi-patiently. But if Jenna from 30 Rock from last night has the inside scoop, than apparently the whole thing is Hurley‘s dream.

Watch the teaser after the jump.
