Spike Jonze

Things got a little wild in movie theaters across the country this weekend.

Spike Jonze's highly anticipated film adaptation of Maurice Sendak's 1963 children's book Where the Wild Things Are dominated the box office, making over $33 million as of Saturday night.

While many stars would never shill for ice cream, cars, coffee or liquor in America, plenty of them do it overseas, a la Bill Murray in Lost in Translation.

Orson Welles, Audrey Hepburn, Leonardo DiCaprio, Keanu Reeves, Ben Stiller and George Clooney have all done Japanese ads but never American ones.

Yesterday director Spike Jonze, Lost in Translation director Sophia Coppola’s ex-husband, was shooting a commercial for Japanese cell phone company Softbank with Brad Pitt in Midtown Manhattan.

How else can Brad afford six babies?

Michelle Williams and Spike Jonze are still going strong!

The couple, who have kept their relationship quite private since hooking up last October, were spotted taking a stroll around Brooklyn earlier this week.

Why so cold, Michelle?

Take your call with the other hand and wrap your arm around your man.

No need to be shy.

It looks like Michelle Williams is working on more than just movies and a friendship with director Spike Jonze. The pair was recently spotted getting cozy in Brooklyn, and now they’ve kicked things up a notch in LA.
