Edward Burns was only 12-years-old in 1980, so he doesn’t consider that decade to be one he experienced to the fullest at the time. Having some distance from the politics or harder events of the time period, though, makes him look back on it fondly as a simpler time, “the way you look back at an old photograph and think, ‘Oh that looks so nice,'” he says. That is what made it the perfect setting for his new Epix dramedy “Bridge and Tunnel.”
“I thought of this as, ‘You’re making “Downton Abbey.”‘ In no way was I trying to recreate the 1970s [or] 1980s, but look at it through the rose-colored, nostalgia look back,” Burns tells Variety.
“The time period that I’ve always been obsessed with is the late-’70s in New York: You’ve got the birth of punk and New Wave and hip hop; you’ve...

Exclusive: The travails, injuries and controversies that led the New York Mets to cut ties with one-time can’t-miss pitcher Matt Harvey reminds how rare the career of Mets great Tom Seaver really was. Edward Burns, the Brothers McMullen director who is a lifelong Mets fan, is working with the Hall of Fame pitcher to direct a feature documentary on Seaver’s career and his role with the fabled 1969 Miracle Mets. That was as unlikely as man landing on the moon, the year when a franchise lovable in futility won 100 games and beat the heavily favored Baltimore Orioles to win the World Series.
“Tom has always been one of my idols,” said Burns, a Queens native. “It’s an honor and a thrill to bring his story to the screen as the Mets prepare to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their stunning 1969 World Series championship.”

Based on Emily Giffin's 2005 debut novel of the same name, the story centers on a single Manhattan attorney (Ginnifer Goodwin). This consummate good-girl gets drunk on her 30th birthday and ends up sleeping with Dexter (Colin Egglesfield), the fiancé of her selfish best friend Darcy (Hudson).

"Captain America" isn't the only project he's been linked to lately.
John Krasinski (TV's "The Office," "It's Complicated") is in negotiations to join romantic comedy "Something Borrowed" for Alcon Entertainment says The Hollywood Reporter.
Based on Emily Giffin's 2005 debut novel, Ginnifer Goodwin plays a New York attorney who has just entered her 30's and becomes involved with her best friend's fiance. Krasinski would play her friend and confidant.
Alcon also picked up film rights to "Something Blue", the second book in the series. Krasinski's character is only a supporting role in the first film but becomes the male lead in the second so the deal on offer is for both pictures.
Luke Greenfield is directing with filming to kick off in the Spring. Hilary Swank, Aaron Lubin, Pamela Schein Murphy, Molly Smith, Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson are producing.

The project is based on a series of novels by Emily Giffin. Alcon also picked up rights to the second book, "Something Blue," with a plan to develop a sequel.
Krasinski's deal is rare in that it is a two-picture deal for a role -- he will play Goodwin's friend and confidant -- more supporting in nature in the first movie but which evolves into the male lead in the second one.
Luke Greenfield is directing the first pic, now eyeing a spring start.
