The upcoming movie "Bobby," an ensemble drama about the 1968 assassination of Robert F. Kennedy directed by Emilio Estevez, has drawn praise from the former senator's widow and one of his daughters.
"Our family is grateful to Emilio Estevez and the extraordinary cast of 'Bobby' for remembering Robert Kennedy's life and his commitment to social justice, peace and equality," Ethel Kennedy said in a statement released today by the Weinstein Company, the producers of the film.
Kennedy's daughter Kerry, who was 8 years old at the time, said, "To remember Robert Kennedy's life, his commitment to social justice and civil rights, his determination to end war and to make America an instrument of a more just and peaceful world is the purpose of this movie – and for that our family is most grateful to Emilio Estevez, Harvey Weinstein and the cast of extraordinary talents that have made this project possible."
The film features Harry Belafonte, Joy Bryant, Nick Cannon, Emilio Estevez, Laurence Fishburne, Brian Geraghty, Heather Graham, Anthony Hopkins, Helen Hunt, Joshua Jackson, David Krumholtz, Ashton Kutcher, Shia LaBeouf, Lindsay Lohan, William H. Macy, Svetlana Metkina, Demi Moore, Freddy Rodriguez, Martin Sheen, Christian Slater, Sharon Stone, Jacob Vargas, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Elijah Wood.
The film opens in select cities November 17 and nationwide on November 23.

The Dalai Lama came through Hollywood this week to spread the peaceful word. Now if it had been to publicize a new cross-promotion campaign featuring Fabio ("I can't believe it's not Buddha"), we might have paid attention. Instead, we were preoccupied with the likes of these mere mortals.
Emilio Estevez:
During a press conference this week at the Toronto International Film Festival to promote his newest film, Bobby, the returning director, writer and co-star bemoaned his one-time fate at the hands of Disney which, in exchange for financing his 1996 flick The War at Home, insisted he also do D3: The Mighty Ducks... for free. "It was a devastating experience," he said of the inevitable D3 critical drubbing. Well cry me a Malibu river. As someone who's been around the Hollywood game for ages (since, in fact, making a debut at age 17 in the TV movie Seventeen Going on Nowhere), you know the rules. For free or for $20 mill, a BAD movie is a bad movie. KEEP UP THIS WHINING (extra up deleted) and we'll have to start referring to the Sheen clan as two and a half men.

1) Anissa Has Just GOTTA KNOW: Who is Andrew Firestone dating? Irina Brodinova?
We're not sure who Irina Brodinova is, or if Mr. Firestone dated her, but we do know who Ivana Bozilovic is. And she and Andrew are as cute as two peas in a pod. Back in March, Andrew gave an interview to TVGuide.com in which he credits the patience of his model-actress girlfriend as the reason for them being able to remain together for over a year. He also adds that he hope his success with Ivana is better than his stint as "The Bachelor!" For more pictures of these love birds, take a look at their photo gallery.
2) Lisa Has Just GOTTA KNOW: I just gotta know when Beyoncé's new album is coming out and are she and Jay-Z engaged? Because I read in a weekly magazine that they had planned to get married this summer. Is that true?
Regarding her professional life, September 5 is the date we're all counting down to, for Beyoncé's second solo album hit stores. "B-Day" is the album title and "Déjà Vu" is her first single. The song features none other than Jay-Z. Regarding her personal life, she and her man have managed to keep lip-locked on the specifics regarding the extent of their relationship. There was speculation two weekends ago that a wedding ceremony may have taken place at Martha's Vineyard. The two attempted to rent a fabulous house, leaving many to speculate this would be the location to celebrate the would-be event. But Def Jam spokeswoman Jana Fleischman shot down the rumors right away. "They were there, but they didn't get married." To catch up on Beyoncé's latest projects, click here. And for a photo gallery of the two, take a look at this!
3) Liz and Nicole Have Just GOTTA KNOW: Where has Joshua Jackson been? We never see him anymore.
MIA seems to be the best way to describe "Dawson's Creek's" Joshua Jackson lately. Earlier this year Jackson completed filming for the pilot "Capital Law," a would-be drama for CBS in which legal associates at a law firm clash with their ethically lacking managing partner. Unfortunately, the pilot was not picked up by the network. But don't fret -- expect to see Joshua playing quite a different role in the Emilio Estevez directed movie "Bobby" alongside Demi Moore and Anthony Hopkins.
