Today Hollywood, Tomorrow the World
November 16, 2004 The
"Alexander" premiere hit Hollywood Tuesday
night in a huge way, as thousands of fans swarmed Hollywood
Boulevard to hang with Angelina Jolie, Colin Ferrell,
Val Kilmer and Rosario Dawson on the star-studded red
carpet.
The superstars were more than gracious to have the support
of their fans, signing hundreds of autographs and even
getting a few gifts in exchange. "Are girls putting
numbers in your pocket?" "Extra's" Jerry
Penacoli asked Colin.
"Is that what it is? Holy s***! It's really interesting,"
Colin joked. "The last few years they've gone from
giving me knives -- they still give me knives, but usually
it's stuffed toys and books on Asia."
Robert Downey Jr., may not be part of the "Alexander"
gang on screen, but he attended the premiere and even
helped dress good friend Val Kilmer. "He's my date,
you know that?" Downey joked. "He went with
the grey suit initially. We had this kind of smart black."
And as always, the stars came to us to put some of Hollywood's
biggest rumors to rest. Starting with, is Colin really
naked in the film's hot love scene with Rosario Dawson?
"I wasn't wearing a cod piece or anything,"
he revealed. "I didn't wear anything; we were buck
naked, both of us."
But Rosario had a different memory of the moment: "No,
he wasn’t," she laughed. "But he was
very generous in suggesting he could take off his pants
for the scene, if need be."
Next rumor: is Colin the Great about to be the next
James Bond? "It's never been mentioned to me,"
Ferrell revealed. "I mean her majesty's secret
service would not f****** employ me, man."
So while there's no "Bond" in Colin's future,
you can catch him as "Alexander" in theaters
November 24th.
