news Mumba's
dates with Time Machine & Eminem...
Irish
pop sensation Samantha
Mumba is to star in the big budget remake
of the HG Wells classic film Time Machine.
The 18 year old singer's manager confirmed that she
would star in the film with Irish based actor Jeremy
Irons, who lives in a refurbished Castle in Cork
with his wife Sinead Cusack. Speaking to the
Irish press Louis Walsh, Sam's manager said
"There's been a huge reaction to her in the states
and Stephen (Spielberg) is very happy
with her."

Sam
will play a child like creature in the movie with
Irons playing the time traveling professor. Sam has
also screen tested for a role in Wesley Snipes
movie Blade 2.
Hardcore
rapper Eminem is also taken on the 18-year-old
Sam. But only out for dinner in London this Friday.
The two, who have met before in Los Angeles, share
a record company and a love of each other's music
... Eminem invited her over from New York (where she
is currently in talks with Steven Spielberg's Dreamworks
about the Time Machine movie) for his sell-out show
at London's Docklands.
He is not the first superstar to be sweet on Sam.
Enrique Iglesias met Mumba at a TV show in
Miami last month and was successful in his efforts
to get her to join him for dinner in downtown Miami.
In the meantime Irish director Neil Jordan
is going ahead with plans to make Double Down
despite Warner Bros pulling out of the project.
The remake of the 1955 French film Bob le Flambeur
will be Jordan's first venture without major studio
backing since The Crying Game in 1992.
Jordan,
who has written the script, will film in France this
spring with Nick Nolte in the starring role
of a veteran gangster and gambler who tries one last
casino robbery in a French seaside resort.
Speaking
to ShowBizIreland.com in Dublin last week Neil
said he was looking forward to starting work with
Nick in France over the next few weeks.
