For those of you that get excited to see Hayden Panettiere dressed up in her cheerleading outfits in ‘Heroes,’ prepare to have more images of her to add to your “spank bank.” The “Heroes” actress is in talk to appear in the teenage comedy, “I Love You, Beth Cooper” as (surprise, surprise) a cheerleader.
Yahoo!News gives us this:
Panettiere would play Beth, the school’s hottest cheerleader who shows nerdy valedictorian Denis Cooverman the best night of his life after he proclaims his love for her during his graduation speech.
When I initially heard this news, it didn’t really appeal to me. However, Chris Columbus is also in talks to direct this film, and although I don’t like everything he has directed, I don’t think he would just take on just any generic teen comedy.
It seems like Hayden is looking for a top billing role, which is perfectly fine to me. She has an upcoming ensemble film coming out called ‘Fireflies in the Garden’ which also stars Ryan Reynolds, Julia Roberts, and Willem Dafoe. So as long as she’s doing projects like that as well, I think it’s only a matter of time, that people will take this young actress as a serious actress. ( Just don’t pull a ‘Lindsay Lohan,’ Hayden! :P)
So what are your guys’ thoughts on this? Would you see this film? Do you think Hayden Panettiere has what it takes to become an A-list actress, but more importantly, WHO MISSES ‘HEROES?’ :P
