Ron Howard returns to comedy with this weekend’s, The Dilemma, about  a man who discovers that his best friend’s wife is having an affair. I love Howard’s comedies (Night Shift, Splash), so I’m really looking forward to this one.

Moviefone got the director and stars Vince Vaughn and Kevin James together to chat about the movie, working with Winona Ryder and Jennifer Connelly and the source for Vaughn’s improvisations.

When Kevin James was asked what it was like for a comedian to work with dramatic actresses (Ryder & Connelly), he said that he “was learning from them and the comedy was coming from the scene … the script itself was getting the laughs so … just play it as real as possible.”

Will Ferrell is #1!

will_ferrellFor the 2nd straight year, Will Ferrell is the most overpaid actor in terms of box-office worth.

According to Forbes magazine, his movies bring in $3.35 for every dollar he’s paid.

Other actors on the list include Eddie Murphy (#2), Denzel Washington, Drew Barrymore, Matt Damon and Adam Sandler.

The best value? Shia LaBeouf. He’s paid $1 for every $81 his movies made. No doubt he’s helped by the Transformers franchise because I didn’t see Wall Street 2 break any box-office records.

Here’s the list:

1. Will Ferrell
2. Eddie Murphy ($1 for every $4.45)
3. Denzel Washington ($1 for every $5.10)
4. Seth Rogen ($1 for every $6.75)
5. Tom Cruise ($1 for every $7.20)
6. Drew Barrymore ($1 for every $7.45)
7. Matt Damon ($1 for every $8.30)
8. Vince Vaughn ($1 for every $8.35)
9. Adam Sandler ($1 for every $8.45)
10. Jim Carrey ($1 for every $8.60)

“First of all I don’t know where all that came from. Every costar I ever worked with I’m either having an affair, about to get married to him, we’re having a baby or we absolutely cannot stand each other.”

Finally, she says, “We were very good friends and were very much partners on this movie. We decided to produce it together and we rewrote the script together. Every day was like, ‘How are we going to do this? What are we going to do now?’ ”
