· O, but for the good old days when studios simply shelved their Oscar hopefuls for six months or a year rather than smother them in their crib. Soloist director Joe Wright knows the feeling from last year, and this year it's his period drama Indian Summer -- which has Cate Blanchett attached to play the wife of Britain's last colonial overseer of India -- that is a casualty of belt-tightening at Universal. The film's producers at Working Title contemplated doing it for a budget under $30 million, but Wright reportedly wants to hold off for "more favorable market conditions." Fair enough. Enjoy retirement, Joe! [Variety] Adam Shankman picks up a new musical -- as does Run-DMC (with an unlikely partner) -- when Hollywood Ink continues after the jump.
