"Cocaine's a hell of a drug..."

August Rush "tells the story of a charismatic Irish guitarist and a sheltered young cellist who have a chance encounter one magical night above New York’s Washington Square, but are soon torn apart, leaving in their wake an infant, August Rush, orphaned by circumstance."

This will give Jonathan Rhys Meyers another chance to pretend he's straight. No offense, but this dude's gayer than Vin Diesel at a glory hole. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

UPDATE: Just did a google search on Rhys Meyers. According to Scarlett Johansson, "He's a really sexy, brooding guy, but he's very gossipy. He likes shoes, and it was like having a girlfriend on the set."
