The Professionals

British 1970s show 'The Professionals' is to be brought back to life on the big screen, with shooting due to begin later this year.

Gerard Butler and Liam Neeson are being considered for the main roles of the two cops - Bodie and Toyle.

Flirting with Jessica Biel

UsMagazine.com is reporting that Jessica Biel, 29, was spotted getting cozy with Gerard Butler, her co-star in the upcoming movie 'Playing the Field,' just five days after the announcement of the surprise split.

Biel and Butler, 41, were first spotted together at a crew member's birthday party at a restaurant in Shreveport, La., where the film is being shot.

A few days later, the couple was seen enjoying cocktails together, and reports have said that Biel and Butler have gone out for dinner a few times.

But a source close to Biel is reported saying that she only wants to be friends with the '300' actor.

A friend of Butler's told E! Online not to expect things to get serious between the two actors. "Gerard says he wants to settle down eventually, but he won't anytime soon, promise, and not with Jessica."

Fighting with Olivier Martinez

Gerard Butler and Olivier Martinez have been fighting over the size of their penises!

Butler apparently started teasing the hunky French actor — who’s currently dating actress Halle Berry — about how Frenchmen fail in the bedroom department on a night out at LA’s Chateau Marmont.

“Halle, Gerard and Olivier were all having a nice conversation at a table when things suddenly took a turn for the worse,” a source said.

“Gerard began mucking around, bragging about Scotsmen and the size of their packages. He was joking that he could wear kilts and no undies because he was a ‘real man’, and that other Europeans wouldn’t be able to pull a kilt off.

“As the conversation continued, he got more lewd — and funny — but Olivier got less and less impressed. After one gag too many at his expense, he stood up and confronted Gerry.

“Olivier was red in the face and gesticulating wildly. So Halle told them both to lighten up.”
