Watching KVille

I ran across this little tidbit on IMDb, and thought I would pass it along.

John Carroll Lynch, Captain Embry on the now-defunct K-Ville, will be in the upcoming Jennifer Aniston-Aaron Eckhart film called Traveling.

The film has been in principal photography in both Vancouver (January) and Seattle (March). Here is a quick picture of both stars during shooting, I think.

That picture came from JustJared.com.

IMDb has the synopsis as pure romantic comedy drivel, if you ask me, and almost no one ever does. Eckhart’s character writes a book on dealing with loss after losing his wife. The book fills a niche, and he becomes famous as a self-help huckster, I mean, guru. Somewhere along the line he meets Aniston’s florist character, and of course, he is smitten, because everyone is, right? Somwhere along the way, Eckhart realizes that no, he is not over the pain of losing his wife, and what then? Does Jen get dumped for a dead woman? No, I am sure, they will remain friends (with benefits) and leave it open to pursue their blooming romance another time, after a couple years of therapy. Either way, I am sure I will not be watching this one.

It is too bad that Jennifer Aniston has gone the romantic comedy route, as my favourite role of hers is still Office Space (with another great role in the “Getting Gay with Kids” South Park episode). Which is a comedy, with a romance, but far from a rom-com.

Anyhoo, John Carroll Lynch is playing a character named Walter, and that is all I can find about that. Maybe he will play a lovable florist, perhaps with a slight gay persuasion with a touch of cross-dressing — oh, wait, he already did that on Drew Carey.
