State Of Play – the movie adaptation of a BBC miniseries that recently hit the headlines when Brad Pitt didn’t want to be in it any more – has had another member-swap.

Now, thanks to Brad Pitt suddenly leaving State Of Play and Russell Crowe taking his place, production has been slightly delayed – and that delay has meant that Edward Norton has been forced to drop out as well. But, undeterred, the State Of Play team have laboured on and quickly signed up Ben Affleck to fill his shoes. And don’t forget that State Of Play still hasn’t started filming yet, so by the time it hits cinemas we can expect State Of Play’s all-star line-up to include two Baldwin brothers, the girl from The Craft who wasn’t Neve Campbell or the pretty one, a Chinese Highland Shrew and your Mum.
