Slater, Oldman, and Cook join "Guns, Girls, & Gambling"

Christian Slater, Gary Oldman, and Dane Cook have signed on to star in Michael Winnick’s stylized crime thriller, Guns Girls, & Gambling. A team up I never thought I'd see on the big screen. I could easily picture Slater and Oldman together, but adding Dane Cook to the mix was a shocker for me. I just hope this doesn't turn out like his other non-comedy attempts in Mr. Brooks with Kevin Costner.

According to Heat Vision, “The story throws Elvis impersonators, Indians, modern cowboys, a 6-foot-tall blond assassin, a frat boy, a corrupt sheriff and a prostitute into a chase for a priceless American Indian artifact stolen during a poker game at an Indian casino.”

“Slater plays a normal guy who in a drunken stupor joins an Elvis impersonation contest. Oldman is the contest’s mega-contender, and Cook will play the sheriff.”

Dane Cook is hilarious, one of the nice up and coming talents :)

I love Dane Cook too, but Mr Brooks was garbage

I don't believe I've seen that Brooks act, I'm a Mel Brooks fan, though. If you can tell a Boa from a baby, wtf, I'll take ur word for it. :)

Dane Cook looks like my old middle school coach. His name escapes me at the moment, when he gave instruction, he used to poke the boys with his stubby middle finger, which was half missing, he only had a middle finger up to the first joint. I have no idea why, mebbe he lost it slicing salami, though the odds are tremendously small on that. :)

I think Cook is a great comedian, but not an amazing actor.

I never seen him act, I just like the handshot in his picture with the article. And his standup is pretty frickin comedic :)
