Rachel McAdams/Harrison Ford rom-com a bit creepy?

by Matt Holmes

At 66, Harrison Ford looks amazing for his age. BUT... Is it not a little creepy to think of him making out with Rachel McAdams? Variety say McAdams is in final talks to join MORNING GLORY, the new comedy from Roger Michell (NOTTING HILL, ENDURING LOVE) which is being produced by J.J. Abrams. She is in talks to play an aspiring news producer who tries to save a failing morning show by getting control of its feuding anchors. Ford plays one of the feuding anchors and presumably there will be love triangle, though the trades don't mention it. Also presumably (I'm doing a lot of that here aren't I?), McAdams is in talks for the role previously held by Reese Witherspoon before she dropped out well before Harrison Ford jumped on board last week. Aline Brosh McKenna (THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA) wrote the script, so maybe there is no rom-com element as that Anne Hathaway/Meryl Streep movie had little of it.
