COLLATERAL BEAUTY
Will Smith has replaced Hugh Jackman for the lead role in Collateral Beauty. Smith’s production company Overbrook Entertainment will now join Anonymous Content, PalmStar Media and Likely Story in producing the drama, written by Allan Loeb and to be directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon.
The film follows a NY advertising executive who experiences a deep personal tragedy, spurning his co-workers to concoct a plan to snap him out of his grief – which works, but not in a way that anyone could have expected.
