He made a good punching bag in Fight Club.  I'll always remember him as Jordan Catalano, though.

Is that last one Tony Clifton?

The Perineum Falcon

It's Jim Carrey as Andy Kaufman as Tony Clifton.
He did quite well.
We often went to the cinema, the screen would light up and we would tremble, but also, increasingly often, Madeleine and I were disappointed. The images had dated, they jittered, and Marilyn Monroe had gotten terribly old. We were sad, this wasn't the film we had dreamed of, this wasn't the total film that we all carried around inside us, this film that we would have wanted to make, or, more secretly, no doubt, that we would have wanted to live.

Oh Christ. I hope he doesn't carry that copy of catcher in the rye around with him for the whole movie.

Leto To Land Role on 'Desperate Housewives'?

Actor Jared Leto is in talks with producers to guest star on hit TV show Desperate Housewives as Eva Longoria's hunky love interest. The actor will reportedly play a grocery store clerk who falls for Longoria's character Gabrielle. An ABC network source tells US tabloid the Star, "When they were brainstorming about actors, they kept coming back to Jared's name... It's a really juicy role!" The actor recently finished filming Chapter 27 and gained 50 pounds for the movie, in which he plays John Lennon's killer, Mark David Chapman. The Requiem For A Dream star has already started getting back in shape for his steamy scenes on the show.
