Kevin Smith Wants Rosario Dawson for Porno
Who wouldn't?
by Scott Weinberg | July 20, 2007
Discuss Article
After becoming well and truly smitten with Rosario Dawson on the set of Clerks 2, it seems that Kevin Smith wants the actress to play the lead in his next comedy Zack and Miri Make a Porno.

Already I want to see this movie.

Apparently it's about two old friends who decide to start making homemade porn as their high school reunion approaches. And while it's not a "View Askew" movie, Smith promises that Jason Mewes will make a quick appearance. Regarding Ms. Dawson's involvement, MTV Movies tells us that no paperwork's been signed yet, Smith admits "I'd be kind of flabbergasted if she didn't do it."

Smith plans to shoot "Zack and Miri" this year, and then move on to his horror film (Red State) early next year. The MTV article also gives us some more info on this particular project, and it seems that Mr. Smith wants to keep us a little bit in the dark for now: "You hear the log line about, like, religious fundamentalism gone awry, and you're like, 'All right, I kind of got the movie in my head.' That's Act One."

The director is staying away from the hardcore gore material, claiming that he sees the project as similar to The Shining in some ways. Either way, color me curious.

It seems like every day I lose more and more respect for Kevin Smith. This sounds like a horrible movie.

As long as she gets naked I can wait for Red State. Wait it's Rosario, of course she'll get naked.

Kevin Smith is probably better suit to making tv shows than movies.

I love Rosario Dawson, and I think Kevin Smith has talent hidden somewhere, but Clerks 2 was soooooo AWFUL!!!!

Eh, please not another Jay and Silent Bob movie. I actually like the characters, but thought the movie was easily within the top 50 worst movies I've ever seen.

Whaaaaa-a-a-a-at?? Clerks 2 is arguably the BEST movie Smith has done (having a triple threat match with Chasing Amy and the original Clerks) - it's definitely not his worst!!

I'll see anything that features both Rosario Dawson and porn, simple as that. I'm more interested to see how Smith tackles Red State.

As far as im concerned.... nothing will beat Jersey Girl in the "Suck Department"....

I think its actually a great Idea to take a break from the characters that made him famous.... for a few films, just enough to gain interest in them... just wait and see after 'Red State'... im expecting something good is stirring up in his (lovely ) head...

and also... Am I the only guy who respects Rosario Dawson as a Comedian and not for her breasts?

oh well...
