Kristin Chenoweth Thinks Her 'Glee' Days Are Over

On Tuesday's "Dancing With the Stars," Kristin Chenoweth makes her second appearance in so many days to sing a track off her new album, "Some Lessons Learned."The petite 43-year-old actress, singer and Broadway vet met with reporters backstage at the show on Monday, and amidst talk of her recent foray into country music and explaining she won't ever be a "DWTS" contestant, she seemed to put the kibosh on a possible return to "Glee.""I don't think so," said Chenoweth. "I would love it, but I don't think Ryan Murphy has any plans for April Rhodes."She appeared in a total of three episodes of the Fox series as the endearing alcoholic who grew up with Matthew Morrison's Will Schuester. And while she may never reprise the role, it clearly has a special place in her heart."I sure loved her," she added. "She's a hot mess."Chenoweth will probably be too busy for guest spots, anyways. She stars in ABC's midseason drama "GCB" (formerly "Good Christian Belles"). And being a part of the ABC family does not mean she's planning on appearing "DWTS" as a contestant."I don't know that that's fair," she said, adding her Broadway advantage, showcased Monday in a performance of "Maybe This Time" from "Cabaret," might preclude her from qualifying. "It's a totally different animal and beast than what we do on Broadway. What we do on Broadway is not easy, but our job is to make it look easy."As for this season, she admits her allegiances are with friends Ricki Lake and David Arquette, but she's also quite fond of J.R. Martinez and Nancy Grace -- the latter of whom is a bit of a kindred spirit."I'm always going to go for the petite blonde," she said. The Hollywood Reporter

Apple Lost $22 Billion in Market Value Wednesday

NY - Shares of Apple had their worst day since the height of the financial crisis Wednesday as the tech giant shed billions in market value, the NY Post reported. A day after Apple posted quarterly results that made for a rare earnings miss, the stock fell 5.6 percent, or $23.62, to $398.62. This cut the company's market value by $22 billion, the Post highlighted. Apple is the second most valuable U.S. company behind Exxon Mobil, which the tech company overtook in terms of market value earlier this year. The earnings disappointment came during the first quarterly Apple earnings report after the Oct. 5 death of co-founder and former CEO Steve Jobs. Instead of underpromising like the company has often done in the past, new CEO Tim Cook told analysts on the earnings call that the firm's product pipeline is strong. He also promised record iPhone and iPad sales this quarter. Apple on Wednesday temporarily closed its retail stores to give employees a chance to follow a Jobs memorial on the company's campus that was also streamed online to staff. Cook said the event would give employees "time to remember the incredible things Steve achieved in his life and the many ways he made our world a better place."

Box Office Shocker: How Moviemaking Georgia Church Behind 'Courageous' Outperforms Hollywood

This story first appeared in the Oct. 21 issue of the Hollywood Reporter.our editor recommendsSherwood Pictures' Top FilmsCourageous: Film Review Before the filmmakers for Sherwood Pictures shot the first frame of Courageous, they prayed. It's right there in the press materials. They did the same thing with Sherwood's previous theatrical releases, Facing the Giants in 2006 and Fireproof in 2008. None of these Christian-themed movies is up to Hollywood production standards, though by one metric -- box office compared to budget -- they're some of the most profitable films in modern history. While Iron Man 2 and Thor earned three times their production budgets, Giants was made for $100,000 and took in $10.2 million domestically, 102 times its budget. Fireproof cost $500,000 but earned $33.5 million, a multiple of 67 on its budget, and Courageous, made for $2 million, earned eight times that in its first 10 days. It bowed No. 4 at the box office with$9.1 million from 1,161 theaters. It seems Sherwood -- a company few in Hollywood have even heard of -- has discovered the secret for making films on a shoestring that people will line up to see in theaters. Maybe it's all that praying. PHOTOS: Sherwood Pictures' Top Films Sherwood Pictures is "the moviemaking ministry" of Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Ga., which spans 130 acres. While it serves 3,000 congregants from a dozen nations, its message -- "passion for Christ and compassion for all" -- reaches millions more through TV and radio broadcasts and its film entity, which launched in 2003 with Flywheel, a movie produced for $20,000 that sold 350,000 DVDs. Since then, Sherwood has struck distribution and marketing deals with two units of Sony Pictures: Affirm Films and Provident Films. Sherwood's films are similarly themed. Courageous is about cops who fear they might fail as fathers without help from Christ. With Fireproof, which starred Kirk Cameron, it was men seeking help to become better husbands, and with Giants and Flywheel, it was men seeking help in their professional lives. The movies have progressed from amateurish to critical successes. PHOTOS: Democrats and Republicans' Favorite Movies "The characters are complex and well drawn, struggling with various personal issues that test their faith and character in believable ways," The Hollywood Reporter film reviewer Frank Scheck wrote of Courageous. The movies are written, directed and produced by Alex and Stephen Kendrick, brothers who are ministers at the church and had minimal moviemaking experience before Flywheel. They're shot and cast largely with volunteers, and profits go to the church, which spends the money on initiatives like an 82-acre sports complex. The Kendrick brothers don't take a salary for acting, directing and producing, though they profit from books that stem from their films. One they wrote based on Fireproof, for example, sold 4 million copies. As Sherwood's filmmaking has improved, so has the marketing and distribution. Flywheel showed in a single theater, and the buzz generated a local news story and a DVD. For the next three films, there were hundreds of screenings for faith leaders, followed by ads on Christian radio and TV and on Fox News Channel. The marketing budget on Giants was $4 million, and the movie played in 441 theaters, followed by $7.5 million in marketing for Fireproof in 905 theaters and $9 million for Courageous, according to insiders. Sony and Sherwood declined comment for this report. It's no secret that Hollywood has been trying to tap into the Christian audience (20th Century Fox has founded FoxFaith). Sherwood attracts Bible Belters by taking the obvious approach -- more in line with The Passion of the Christ than The Chronicles of Narnia series, where a resurrected lion might or might not represent Jesus (depending on which crowd the marketers are talking to). With Sherwood, there's no ambiguity. "They say we're preaching to the choir, but you know what? Sometimes the choir needs a good reminder," Alex Kendrick said in a recent interview with THR's Kim Masters on KCRW's The Business. Encouraged by Sherwood, other churches are delving into filmmaking. The Grace Card, for example, is a buddy-cop Christian drama starring Louis Gossett Jr. and produced by Calvary Church of the Nazarene in Cordova, Tenn. Made for $460,000 and marketed and distributed in February by Affirm, Provident and Samuel Goldwyn Films, the movie took in $2.4 million. (Goldwyn also helped distribute Giants and Fireproof.) "Christian movies have become quite a cottage industry in the Bible Belt," says Howard Klausner, who wrote the 2000 Clint Eastwood movie Space Cowboys before moving to Tennessee, where he wrote and produced Grace Card. "My desire is to make Christian movies mainstream -- to grow the genre up a little bit and make it more culturally relevant." Related Topics
