Robert Rodriguez and Rose Mcgowan are splits-villed!
WHAT?! How could this happen you ask? Well its simple, you can only stare at a guy in a cowboy hat and cowboy boots for so long before you send them hiking. She was probably getting tired of him trying to put her in everything he is working on! From the NY Post:
“But sources say the couple, who we reported last October were engaged, have split, partly over the problems Rodriguez had finding financing for “Barbarella” – the 1968 cult classic in which Jane Fonda played a sexy space adventuress – with McGowan in the title role.
McGowan, best known for her witchy role on TV’s “Charmed,” wasn’t thought to have enough box-office draw for the $70 million remake, especially after “Grindhouse” disappointed with about $25.4 million in domestic ticket sales.
“Too bad ‘Grindhouse’ didn’t gross $100 million. Then, maybe, ‘Barbarella’ would have gotten the green light,” said one source. “Instead, the moguls were saying, ‘We need a bigger star, a bigger name.’ ” Jessica Alba has been touted as a possible replacement.”
However that leaves several open questions, like “What will happen with Barbarella, Red Sonja, and the Prison TV Drama?” Well, one would assume that they are all in the can, or at least wont star Rose Mcgowan which is upsetting because she would have been perfect for ‘Barbarella’ and ‘Red Sonja’!
