Ayo Plus Luca Equals Yes


There was a killer photo (see it here) of a bunch of my favorite famous people stuffed into a party bus headed to the Met Gala back on the 6th and amonng the folks was The Bear and Bottoms star Ayo Edebiri (sidenote: apologies if me typing the words "bear" and "bottoms" so close to one another brought to your mind those obnoxious Charmin Toilet Tissue commercials) and world-class filmmaker slash MNPP -beloved Luca Guadagnino. And I remember thinking to myself, "Oh those two should work together." And I made it happen! Me and me alone! Ayo has just today joined the cast of After the Hunt, the thriller that Luca is directing this summer already starring Julia Roberts and Andrew Garfield. Most excellent news! Also that photo above comes from a new cover story profile of Ayo in Vanity Fair -- I haven't read it yet myself so let's all go read it together. She seems a peach and we're hoping the world for her.

The words "bear" and "bottoms" so close to one another brought something else to my mind.

Anon - I went back and forth between the two jokes I could make ;)
