Forget everything we've said previously about the Renee Zellweger/Harry Connick Jr comedy - filming in Canada - called “Chilled in Miami” - it won't be as bad as we thought it'd be (though it still stinks of “It's the only script that's ready to go because of this writer's strike''), if only because Nathan Fillion's now onboard. Heck, that man might just well be able to polish a turd.

The most underrated actor of his generation, Fillion (“Serenity”) returns to the world of rom-com (He had a role on the now defunct Alicia Silverstone starring series “Miss Match” a few years ago) with a part in a sweet and fluffy pleasantry about a Miami businesswoman who's transferred to the sticks of Minnesota.

The project reunites Fillion with Gold Circle, who he worked with on both “Slither” and “White Noise 2”. They seem to love Captain Tightpants over there - and reps to them!

Old friend “Marbles” sent in the following :

“Clint, there's a rumor floating about that Nathan Fillion – who I know you're a big fan of – has joined the cast of the new Renee Zellweger comedy, Chilled in Miami. I confirmed it with the production this evening – he has indeed got a role in the film. Thought you'd be interested”.

“Chilled in Miami” also stars Siobhan Fallon Hogan, J.K. Simmons, Frances Conroy and Rashida Jones.
