I’ve added some photos of Amanda from this event from early October to the gallery.  I know I”ve been terrible about updating the site lately but thats going to change so keep checking back for more!

Here comes another overly sentimental Nicholas Sparks film that will scar you for the rest of your life. Over at Cinematical they’ve debuted a poster from the upcoming romance-drama, Dear John. The film stars Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried as a love lorn couple torn by war and responsibility. The film will be directed by Lasse Hallström the same person who helmed The Cider House Rules, so you’ll need to keep the tissues close.

Take a look at the full poster for Dear John…

• Appearances: 2009: September 16 – “Jennifer’s Body” Hot Topic Fan Event

Hey everyone! I’ve added several appearances of Amanda over the weekend at the Toronto Film Festival. Check them out below!:

2009 Toronto International Film Festival – “Chloe” Premiere

2009 Toronto International Film Festival – “Jennifer’s Body” Premiere

2009 Toronto International Film Festival – “Up in the Air” Screening

2009 Toronto Film Festival – “Jennifers Body” Press Conference

The NY Times has yet another first look at an upcoming Toronto Film Festival film with a few new photos. Chloe is the latest film from director Atom Egoyan and is his “most emotionally direct and accessible work” since the The Sweet Hereafter. It stars Amanda Seyfried as Chloe, an escort that Catherine (Julianne Moore) hires to seduce her husband (Liam Neeson) and test his loyalty. As described by TIFF, it’s a “highly entertaining, mind-bending tale of sexual jealousy in which appearances belie the truth – perhaps.” And based on these photos and that synopsis, it’s a film I’m already planning to see at the fest in a few weeks.
From the NY Times piece: “Chloe — which Mr. Egoyan describes as an ‘erotic mystery’ — is a star-studded break from form for him, the first of his features for which he has not written the screenplay.” The script was written by Erin Cressida Wilson, of Secretary and Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus. While this is supposed to be a dramatic thriller, I’m a bit thrown off by the fact that Ivan Reitman is producing. But apparently it’s an odd project for him, too. He was “interested in putting aside the guffaws and overseeing ‘a more delicate piece.’” This doesn’t have a distributor yet but it will be premiering at TIFF in September.

I have added one photo from the set as well as a still

For a 23-year-old college dropout, “Big Love” star Amanda Seyfried has the breadth of life experiences someone twice her age would covet. She spent her childhood modeling. She studied opera. And worked alongside Meryl Streep. She’s even presented at the Academy Awards with Robert Pattinson (swoon!). To any onlooker it would appear Amanda’s led a charmed life. But it hasn’t been without its trials. The star of the upcoming “Jennifer’s Body” opened up to Allure magazine (see her full cover image after the jump) about her recurring anxiety attacks, her breakout role in “Mean Girls,” and how Tinseltown is one big high school cafeteria.

Amanda is candid about the things she doesn’t like about herself; among them her stubby nails and roller-coaster emotions, the latter of which leads to anxiety attacks at the most inopportune moments. “I suffer from anxiety attacks a lot,” she explained. “Like, the other day, I had an attack in the middle of a relaxing massage: My head was just spinning, and I felt nauseous! I was saying to myself, Just don’t make a scene! Finish this massage, or you’re going to be really annoyed with yourself.”

It’s anxiety, however, that Amanda says gives her acting an edge. Perhaps it was just such an edge that helped her land her breakout role as ditzy Karen Smith in “Mean Girls,” the flick that made stars out of Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams.

“Oh, thank God for ‘Mean Girls’! That put me on the map!” Amanda said. “I definitely knew it would be a success. I was like, There’s no way this movie can go wrong.”

It’s probably fitting then that a former “Plastic” describes Hollywood in terms of a popularity contest. “Hollywood is just like high school: The popular people love the other popular people. And the thing is, some people aren’t nice,” she said hesitantly. “Or they are nice, but only to your face, not elsewhere.” Amanda is quick to point out that she’s not innocent of girl crimes either. “I do my fair share of judging when I see certain women on the covers of magazines. I think, Why is she on the cover? But then I try to think, Oh, wow — she really does look good.”

What do you think about Amanda’s Allure cover?
