Judy Greer talks The Descendants, working with Clooney and being an action star
You may recognize Judy Greer from a multitude of movies and or TV shows. For one, she’s known as that crazy secretary on Arrested Development (we’ll get to that later). You may also recognize her voice as the gossipy Cheryl Tunt on the adults-only cartoon Archer. She also got to creepily whisper the tagline to...
Six thoughts about The Ides of March
So, today is the day: The Ides of March opens in theaters. Are you excited? Well good for you.
