Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Yes, but what if he views it as enough money to be able to hide his assets forever after?
Hah! Obviously you don't know him well enough. He's shown his wedding tackle more than Harvey Keitel, and just a little less than Julian Sands.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
He does seem to be rather more enthused about doing so than Keitel. I get the feeling the latter has appeared nude so often because he doesn't mind doing it as part of the job, whereas Ewan seems to actively seek out those sort of roles.

Has anyone heard anything about a movie called The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants? I happened to catch Coming Attractions on E! last night and saw the trailer for it. Looks rather interesting, especially with Bradley Whitford as America Ferrara's dad. I might go see it just for those cast members (loved Ferrara in Real Women Have Curves) alone, but Joan of Arcadia and Gilmore Girls fans will like that Tamblyn and Bleidel are also in it.
Apparently, the source material is a very popular book which I've never heard of (is it chick lit or teen fic?).

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I've read it. I think it would make a fun movie. It's not deep, but it's not terrible, either, and the 4 girls are drawn pretty realistically and there are some interesting scenarios.

The trailer really focused on the Whitford/Ferrara relationship, and her reaction to his forthcoming second marriage to a very WASP divorcee/widow (not specified in the trailer). The other three girls got comparatively short shrift.

I wonder if they'll change the title for British release, because I always snicker juvenilely when I hear it.

London TIMES:
CHRISTIAN conservatives in America are marshalling their forces against Sir Ridley Scott’s forthcoming crusader epic, The Kingdom of Heaven, claiming the film is insulting and unfair.
Scott, 67, received death threats from Muslim fundamentalists during filming in Morocco two years ago when King Mohammed VI, who admired his earlier work, Gladiator and Black Hawk Down, lent him troops from the royal bodyguard.
Yet it is Christian hostility that may ultimately prove more damaging at the box office. A spate of hostile reviews that are due to appear in the increasingly influential religious press this week will urge America’s 80m born-again believers to avoid the £100m film.
Scott said he has tried hard to be fair to both sides in his film, which depicts the 12th-century battle between Muslims and Christians for Jerusalem. He even employed Grace Hill Media, a Los Angeles public relations agency that markets potentially “troublesome” films to increasingly influential Christian opinion-formers. It organised a private screening earlier this month for Christian journalists at which Scott spoke.
Many of the resulting reviews have been poor. Bob Waliszewski, director of Plugged In Film Review, a programme heard on 300 US radio stations, said the film depicted Christians as “mean-spirited”, while Saladin, the Muslim leader, was shown as a chivalrous knight.
