In an effort to repair their public images and fill their newly found free-time, Javaris Crittenton and Gilbert Arenas have agreed to act in a reboot of All The President's Men. Both hoopsters are said to be excited to have the opportunity to spread their wings in a different field and show the public that there is no animosity between the two budding thespians.
Michael Bay, who has long been rumored to be directing finally confirmed those rumors saying, "It's true, we are looking to start filming in February." When asked about the casting he added "When I heard we could get Gilbert and Javaris, my mind started running with ideas. I love Pakula's version, but this is my chance to beat that bastard James Cameron..... With them (Arenas and Crittenton) in the lead, we could do just about anything.... As I see it now, it's going to be a mixture of Conspiracy Theory, Norbit and Howard the Duck." Later in the interview, he referred to his love for CGI, "We will be faithful to the original. But with all the improvements in computers and special effects, we have boundless choices to improve the movie; explosions, aliens, robots, alien-explosions, robotic-aliens, whatever." The movie is expected to be released late 2010 /early 2011, with the target being Thanksgiving weekend.
Update: Greg Oden is in talks to play the part of "Deep Throat"

Langston, I love it. You pretty much had me at hello, but the Oden part at the end sealed the deal. I'm buying my tickets in advance.
