My agent promised me this movie will be better than the Chuck Liddell episode of Entourage

David Mamet's upcoming mixed martial arts drama has just unleashed the coke snitch curse, dooming itself to failure by casting Tim Allen.

That's right, folks. The former coke dealer and hacky comedian and current star of everything that is soulless and evil joins the cast of Redbelt, playing a "troubled action star with marital problems who meets the master when he is getting pummeled in a street fight."

Okay, well I like the getting pummeled part. Couldn't that just be the movie? Could it be a documentary?

Eh, to be completely fair, he was pretty good in Galaxy Quest.

Redbelt will also star Emily Mortimer, Alice Braga, Joe Mantegna, Rodrigo Santoro, Ricky Jay, David Paymer, Rebecca Pidgeon and Jose Pablo Cantillo, along with martial artists and fighters Randy Couture, John Machado, Danny Inosanto, Enson Inoue and Ray Mancini.
