After getting his ass booted as FoxNews.com’s resident gossip columnist, Roger Friedman wasted no time in getting his own blog, retitled Showbiz411, up and running and he’s already landed some decent scoopage.

Even though Stoppard is an incredibly talented writer, a complete overhaul on a script during production never bodes well for the end result. Let’s just hope Scott knows what he’s doing. What do you guys think?
