A direct relationship exists between the growing size of Zack Snyder's "Sucker Punch" cast and the mystery surrounding exactly what the hell we're going to see on the screen when it hits theaters in 2011. "Man Man" star Jon Hamm is the first confirmed male to join the all-female cast of the "Watchmen" director's next film, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Of course, there are no details on what role Hamm will play. More of the same from the increasingly mysterious "Sucker Punch." We know his character's name though: High Roller. Probably not a god-given birth name. I wonder if he's supposed to be a gambler, or if "High Roller" is meant more as a metaphor. Maybe Hamm's character is constantly putting himself in danger, taking a high-stakes gamble with his life. Or something.

We loved the movie when we saw it at Sundance earlier this year (you can read my review here [3]), as Charlyne and director Nicholas Jasenovec use a hilarious and charming blend of documentary and fictional storytelling to explore what it means to be in love. Paper Heart is currently playing in select theatres in North America. For more info on where you can see the film, visit the...
