Breaking news, Prior Engagement just emailed me with this cryptic message:
"Tom is doing The Soloist! Eeeeeee!"
Ok, at first I thought 'what is The Soloist?' but now I remember, it's Joe Wright's new film featuring Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey!!
Eeeeeeeeeee!!!

I reeeeeaallly reeeaaally hope he has a larger role in this one. And by the way, I wonder when someone will update IMDB for Tom. I don't understand the delay.

This appeared in Variety, last August re Jamie Foxx's preparation for the role of Nathaniel Ayers:
"Project is based on the true story of musical prodigy Nathaniel Ayers, who developed schizophrenia in his second year at Juilliard and ended up homeless on the streets of downtown L.A. where he performs the violin and cello.
...Foxx, a classically trained pianist, is being taught stringed instruments by a cellist with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, an entity that figures in the plot of the film."
Could this be Tom's role?

Could this be Tom's role? In the R & J interview he said that he plays another cellist that tries to rehabilitate Foxx.

Julian R-T plays the cello...I wonder if he's given Tom any tips? Lol. This all sounds very exciting!

I did an update to his biography, for example. You mean his filmography? Not sure if it's different to make changes there, but I'll look into it.... I was wondering about that "Becoming Jane" reference, for example....

I don't think anyone does.Yes, I did add it to my submission and didn't specify a character name. I tried adding it months ago and it never went through so maybe imdb.com doesn't like incomplete submissions?

I added Thomagination to the misc. links awhile ago and was surprised at how fast it was "approved". I think they said it could take a couple of weeks. Irene's bio update went through pretty quick though. Did you look at it? She did a wonderful job.

I remember I tried to add Bradley Whitford's cameo on Felicity and I ended up having to submit it twice...guess they didn't believe me the first time or something...
Ukelehip, saw your post about Jamie Bell on LJ and that is so cool!!
Oh, I hope Tom has a big part, at least on par with Charlie in A Good Year.
