Possible Poker Comedy
Filmstew.com reports that MGM has paid $1 million for an "untitled poker pitch" from Don Rhymer (writer of Big Momma's House, The Santa Clause 2, and Agent Cody Banks 2):

Dylan Sellers will produce the comedy about three men who scheme a way to play in the World Series of Poker tournament in Las Vegas without their wives finding out. Rhymer will write the script, and quickly, because MGM wants to go into production as soon as possible to ride the current poker wave.

Shade is currently in limited release in a few cities and as far as I know still scheduled for wide release on May 7.
