Anne Heche Body & Ashton Kutcher Shirtless + Buff Gerard Butler & Jennifer Aniston

Shirtless Ashton Kutcher with Anne Heche in Spread.

Anne Heche and Ashton Kutcher (above) star in Spread, the tale of an ambitious escort (Kutcher) who makes good use of his physique and sexual dynamism to make his way into the world of Los Angeles’ moneyed elite. Problems arise when he falls in love with a mere waitress (Margarita Levieva).

“Adult lives are sexual lives,” Anne Heche is quoted as saying in the film’s press release. “We’re given these films all the time where people aren’t really talking truthfully about what goes on in people’s sex lives. You get these scenes where people come together and they kiss and fall down on a bed, and then we’re supposed to imagine what’s going on. But people’s sex lives are extreme. I certainly haven’t seen a truthful portrayal of an adult sex life in a film in awhile, and it’s bold to be able to do that. It may be uncomfortable, it may be sexy, it may be heartbreaking. Maybe disturbing. But true stuff.”

Spread was directed by David Mackenzie from a screenplay by Jason Hall, based on a story by Hall and Paul Kolsby. Also in the cast: Sebastian Stan, Rachel Blanchard, Maria Conchita Alonso, and Hart Bochner.

Spread opens in the US on Aug. 14.

Love Happens with Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart: Helpless self-help guru.

Directed by first-timer Brandon Camp, and written by Camp and Mike Thompson, the romantic drama Love Happens stars Aaron Eckhart as Burke, a widower whose book about coping with the loss of a loved one turns him into a self-help guru. Jennifer Aniston plays Eloise, a woman our widower meets – and falls in love with – at one of his seminars in Seattle.

The catch is that the man who teaches about coping with loss hasn’t actually gotten over the death of his own wife.

Love Happens movie cast

Besides Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart, the Love Happens cast includes Joe Anderson, Judy Greer, John Carroll Lynch, Dan Fogler, Frances Conroy, Sasha Alexander, and Martin Sheen.

Director-screenwriter Camp and co-screenwriter Thompson are probably best known as two of the writers/executive producers of the mystery/sci-fi television series John Doe, starring Dominic Purcell.
