Rachel McAdams: Lovely Actress From Canada
Earlier in 2011 she was also seem opposite her former Wedding Crashers co-star Owen Wilson in the film Midnight In Paris (directed by Woody Allen) which was released in mid-June 2011. Prior to that McAdams was most recently seen in Morning Glory (trailer below) which opened in November 2010 and in that one, her character, Becky Fuller is a hotshot television producer trying to revive a struggling morning show, and contending with feuding anchors. Harrison Ford, Diane Keaton, and Jeff Goldblum were also cast. McAdams also is slated to star in a untitled Terrance Malick movie (now in post-production) with Christian Bale, Javier Bardem and Olga Kurylenko and that has been re-scheduled for a release in 2012.
McAdams' previous movie was of course, Sherlock Holmes (see trailer below!) where she appeared as Irene Adler, a femme fatale, opposite Robert Downey Jr. as the illustrious detective which opened Christmas Day, 2009. And rumors of a sequel have been confirmed of a new untitled Sherlock Holmes second movie which is in pre-production for 2011. Unfortunately they will not have McAdams as the female lead, but she will be reprising her role as Adler.
Rachel has finished filming Midnight In Paris (Woody Allen directing) and begun The Vow with Channing Tatum. the story is that McAdams and Tatum are a newlywed couple involved in a serious car acident leaving the wife (McAdams) with a loss of memory and Tatum tries to recover the love they shared prior to the accident. Directed by Michael Sucsy (who did the excellent Grey Gardens with Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lange). Midnight In Paris also stars Marion Cotillard, Adrien Brody and her Wedding Crashers co-star, Owen Wilson.
McAdams was seen in two other movies in 2009, State of Play where she played Della Frye, a young reporter working with Russell Crowe's character to figure out the connection between two murders and a congressman (Ben Affleck). Rachel also had a major role in The Time Traveler's Wife with Eric Bana.

Rachel McAdams Auditions For The Notebook

The Premiere Of Sherlock Holmes In London, England
Interviews at the London premiere of the movie Sherlock Holmes with Rachel McAdams, Jude Law, Kelly Reilly who discuss the film, their characters and working with director Guy Ritchie who discusses the film in the 3rd clip.
Rachel McAdams At The Sherlock Holmes Premiere
Rachel McAdams at the premiere of Sherlock Holmes in London. McAdams starred alongside Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law in the 2009 movie about the famous detective from the novels written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Sherlock Holmes Featuring Robert Downey Jr, Jude Law, And Rachel McAdams!
Here's the latest trailer for the new Sherlock Holmes movie which came out Christmas Day. Robert Downey Jr., plays the lead of Sherlock Holmes opposite Jude Law as Doctor Watson. Lovely Rachel McAdams plays Holmes' love interest, Irene Adler (reputedly the only woman to have outsmarted Holmes). The film's villian is the fiendish Lord Blackwood (played by Mark Strong). The clip shows a bit of a more muscular Holmes (Downey?) fighting it out in a bare knuckle brawling match, juxaposed with a steamy Rachel McAdams in a state of victorian undress.
In one notable scene, Holmes finds himself handcuffed to a bed by Adler with only a pillow to hide his modesty. It looks like the movie will have a lot more action than your standard Holmes movie, as it is directed by Guy Ritchie. All I can say is - More McAdams!
The Time Traveler's Wife
Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana star in The Time Traveler's Wife, which opens in August 2009. Bana is a Chicago librarian who suffers from a genetic disorder that causes him to travel through time, while McAdams character, Clare Abshire copes with his frequent absences. The movie is based on the 1st novel (of the same name) by author Audrey Niffenegger which has sold 2.5 million copies.
One Of The Best Scenes From The Time Traveller's Wife
McAdams In State Of Play
Two seemingly unrelated deaths? First, a thief gets gunned down in an alley, second, a Congressman's assistant falls in front of a subway. What's the connection?
Newspaper reporter Cal McAffrey (Russell Crowe) believes there is a conspiracy waiting to be uncovered. McAffrey has some connections with the Congressman (Ben Affleck) and the help of an ambitious young rookie writer Della Frye (Rachel McAdams), he starts unravelling clues that lead him to a bigger story, involving corporate cover-up full of insiders, informants, and assassins. Helen Mirren also appears as McAffrey's steely editor.
The movie is based on the excellent British mini-series, State of Play (BBC Miniseries) available from Amazon.com.

Rachel McAdams Named Female Star Of The Year
ShoWest has named Rachel McAdams as 2009's Female Star Of The Year. "They're really good at coming up with these big sweeping award titles, aren't they?" McAdams says in a recent interview with Variety. McAdams starred in two very different roles this year. In State Of Play, McAdams plays a young, inexperienced reporter, while in the new Guy Ritchie directed Sherlock Holmes, she plays a sexy Irene Adler, whom the famed Baker Street detective kept a picture of, as she was the only woman that ever outwitted him. Quite a range that showcases McAdams' acting chops.
Quick, what do you think of Rachel McAdams?
Rachel McAdams Upcoming Projects
Right now McAdams is hard at work on several movies: Midnight In Paris, The Vow, and the The "Untitled" Terrance Malick Movie.are all done with filming and are in post-production - meaning they are being cut and spliced and edited before being released. Midnight In Paris is scheduled for 2011, but the other two films will not be ready until 2012 so you will have to wait a while for more Rachel.The as yet untitled 2nd Sherlock Holmes is being filmed now and although McAdams will not be sharing quite as much screen time with Downey Jr as Irene Adler, she will be in it. The main female role in this sequel went to Noomi Rapace. I'm betting that if it is released in 2011, it will be around Christmas time like the first Holmes movie, but 2012 is more likely.
Rachel McAdams Is Something Of A Cameleon

Straight blond hair this week, then curly brunette the next. Rachel McAdams seems able to effortlessly pull off either look with ease.
Red Eye
Stars Rachel McAdams, Cillian Murphy
It looks like there can be no escape for Lisa, but of course Craven and screenwriter Carl Ellsworth find a way to milk the suspenseful dilemma for all it's worth, even managing to wedge in a few intriguing character details to enhance the fast-moving plot. It's still a B-movie, but it's tightly constructed and well-executed by Craven, whose previous films made him a perfect choice to maximize all that Red-Eye has to offer.
The Notebook
In the 40s, he was poor, and she was rich, and you can guess the rest; the years have past and he's remains unabashedly devoted, and she's slipping into the memory-loss of senile dementia. How their love endured is the story preserved in the titular notebook that he reads to her in their twilight years. Some people hate it because it demands your tears and on that level it is fine. Sometimes you just need a gooy romantic movie.
