Brad Pitt was the one that got away. Ben Affleck was the one that got J. Lo. But Coldplay rocker CHRIS MARTIN is the one that got GWYNETH PALTROW pregnant. The couple confirmed last week that Paltrow, 31, is expecting their first child next summer. The willowy actress, who adheres to a strict macrobiotic diet, had begun to draw attention for looking more curvaceous. Though mum on wedding plans, the couple have reportedly applied for a marriage license. Can a family sitcom be far behind...
...folks would normally go for drama. But that reckons without the strength of the characters Andre Dubus III created for his novel or the detailed care with which writer-director Perelman has brought them to the screen in his first feature.

His commercial instincts have also drawn fire. Actress Thea Andrews is featured as a flirty sports reporter on Playmakers and as the genuine article on Cold Pizza. "It reeks of hypocrisy," says an ESPN personality. Shapiro is unmoved: "Thea is not covering Watergate. If she was, she wouldn't be on Playmakers...
