Bigshot Hollywood director films book trailer

According to Entertainment Weekly, Charlie’s Angels director McG has created three teaser spots for a kinda trashy-looking book called Celebutante.

[…] it’s a Hollywood satire […] by Amanda Goldberg (daughter of film producer Leonard Goldberg) and Ruthanna Khaligi Hopper (daughter of Easy Rider Dennis Hopper). The clips dramatize various scenes from the novel and star Autumn Reeser (The O.C.) as Lola Santisi, the daughter of a famed director who agrees to help her gay designer friend by persuading a famous actress to wear one of his gowns to the Oscars; other somewhat familiar performers in the shorts include Mike Vogel (Cloverfield) and Wilson Cruz (Rent).

No word yet on where these spots are supposed to air, but they’re clearly not kosher for network television. We’re thinking it’s probably going to be a web-only, “viral” sort of campaign. In any case, if the book turns out to be a hit, the TV series certainly won’t be long in coming.

    Just a quick note: Wilson Cruz played ‘Angel’ in ‘Party Monster’, Wilson Jermaine Heredia played ‘Angel’ in ‘Rent’.
