If he can't do it himself, he might as well give it to one of the best.

Matt Damon was all set to direct the screenplay he wrote with John Krasinski, but time commitments got in the way, he handed over the reigns to his pal Gus Van Sant.

And Van Sant knows a thing or two about directing a Matt Damon screenplay. He also directed the Oscar winning film Good Will Hunting.

The Capraesque drama stars Damon and Krasinski, who play rival corporate executives and will star production in April.

With such three big talented names, we are super stoked for this movie. Good call on bringing Van Sant in. Could this be a contender for Oscars 2013??

Hopefully this will give him something to smile about!

Keanu Reeves is reportedly getting off his sad bench and in negotiations with the China Film Group and Village Roadshow to not only star in, but also direct a film that he wrote, named Man of Tai Chi, which is a Mandarin and English language kung-fu story!

Apparently, the flick would also star Tiger Chen, who was part of the kung-fu team that helped the actor prepare for his iconic role in The Matrix!

This looks fantastic!

Not only does it have Viggo Mortensen and Keira Knightly, but it also has Michael Fassbender (who we've fallen in love with since X-Men) AND it's directed by the insanely talented David Cronenberg!

We all know how well Cronenberg directs, just look at some of his past flicks: A History of Violence, Eastern Promises, The Fly, and eXistenZ!

Plus he's got a great track record working with Viggo!

Can't wait, check out the trailer above!

The Oscar-nominated director has auditioned Brit Brit before - oddly enough, for Naomi Watts' role in I <3 Huckabees - and even though he hasn't found anything right for her yet, he still would love to work with her!

So when he was asked who he wanted to work with in the future, he said matter-of-factly: "Britney."

Here's the rest of what he went on to say:

"I think Britney could be great in a lot of different things, and I'm a huge fan of hers. And I actually auditioned her for a couple things… Used in the right way, I think she could be (great)… I'm a believer… I mean, Britney (the audition) was several years ago, for another movie… I think she's a great entertainer… Yeah, I'm rooting for her."

Wow! We had no idea he was such a fan!

Maybe they can get a Crossroad 2: The Detour off the ground! Ha!

But in all seriousness, we think that David O. Russell would be able to get a great performance out of Brit!

Let's see it happen!
