According to Box Office Mojo, the release-date for the upcoming movie Across the Universe has been moved from September 28 to September 14. Be sure to go see the movie (with Salma as a hot nurse) this fall.

Again, I’m very sorry for the lack of updates on the site, but I’m working out of town a lot. But don’t worry, Salma Hayek Web isn’t going anywhere, and will continue to keep you updated with the very latest soon again. For now, here’s a great announcement of a new project for Miss Hayek!

Disney has hired Salma Hayek to appear in their new untitled romantic comedy. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Ed Decter and John Strauss are responsible for the script.

The plot revolves around a conservative doctor who discovers that his fiance’s former boy friend is a Latin superstar. The Romeo returns to Los Angeles to win her back, which throws the doctor’s life into complete chaos. Hayek will be playing the fiance.

The film is set to start shooting sometime this fall. Expect an early 2008 release date.

The Disney full-length feature South of the Border, where Drew Barrymore, Andy García and Salma Hayek will give voices to the movie’s main characters, three dogs, has started filming in Puerto Vallarta and surroundings.

Under the direction of Raja Gosnell, who previously produced Scooby Doo, the storyline intertwines real people and virtual characters. Drew Barrymore’s character, Chloe, is a ritzy Chihuahua who becomes separated from her owner, performed by actress Jamie Lee Curtis, during a trip to Mexico.

The adventure begins when Chloe meets other dogs that help her way back to her owner. Andy García provide the voice of a German Shepherd who used to work at the police department but has regretfully lost his sense of smell, while Salma Hayek’s character will become Chloe’s spiritual guide. Other voices featured on the film include those of actors Edward James Olmos, Paul Rodriguez, opera singer/impresario Placido Domingo and many, many more.
