HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 30, 2001 -- Another supermodel is turning Hollywood on its ear, and producer Jerry Bruckheimer couldn’t be happier.
“Sports Illustrated” model and professional synchronized swimmer Estella Warren is racking up film projects, and her latest role will be taking her Down Under. Warren will join Jerry O’Connell (“Sliders”) and Anthony Anderson (“Me, Myself and Irene”) in producer Bruckheimer’s new action-comedy “Down and Under.”
In the film, two long-time friends, a New York hairstylist (O’Connell) and an unsuccessful musician (Anderson) are forced to work for the Mafia, and are sent to Australia to deliver $100,000. However, a wild kangaroo accidentally takes the money, and the pair is forced to pursue the critter.

PASADENA, Calif. -- After nearly a week of trying to make contact with the $165 million Mars Polar Lander, scientists and NASA officials have all but given up the mission as a failure. Never an industry to shy away from big-money crap shoots, the motion picture community is putting a great deal of faith in a pair of Mars-related pictures that it hopes will generate substantially more interest and success than the recent NASA fiasco.
Disney is putting a great deal of time and strength behind its summer 2000 offering "Mission to Mars." Directed by Brian DePalma and starring Gary Sinise, Tim Robbins, Don Cheadle, Kim Delaney and Jerry O'Connell, "Mars" surrounds a seemingly failed manned mission to the red planet. As rescue operations are put in place, it is quickly discovered that an even greater menace may be waiting for them on Mars.
