'New Girl's' Max Greenfield 'ready and available' for '50 Shades'Max Greenfield earned an Emmy nod for his portrayal of Schmidt on "New Girl," and he has no doubt more nominations would roll in if he landed the role of Christian Grey in the "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie. Greenfield, who walked the Emmys red carpet Sunday in custom Brooks Brothers - "tailored within an inch of his life," as his wife Tess Sanchez told E! - said that he'd be happy to drop trou for "Fifty Shades" on the big screen. Zooey Deschanel to play Loretta Lynn on BroadwayThe "New Girl" is going to Broadway with a huge endorsement from country legend Loretta Lynn. As Zooey Deschanel, 32, revealed via Twitter Thursday night, "Loretta Lynn asked me to do 'coal miner's daughter' on broadway! I said YES!" Lynn unveiled the plan to adapt her story for Broadway during a show at the Ryman Auditorium on Thursday. 'New Girl': Nick's moving dayWill he or won’t he? That was the question Tuesday as we waited to see whether Nick would go through with moving in with Caroline in "New Girl's" season 1 finale. Jess, Winston and Schmidt weren’t taking the proposed move very well, but despite that, the roomies put up a Craigslist ad for Nick’s room and found some weird guy named Neil. 'New Girl's' Max Greenfield and the breakout characters of the seasonFox's "New Girl" has not only become one of this season's success stories, but it's also introduced a character that has, in some ways unexpectedly, become one of the most talked about of the year. Of course, we're speaking of none other than Schmidt, as played by Max Greenfield. This first season, which wraps up with its finale Tuesday night, has been "very surreal," Greenfield told us in an interview. 'New Girl' backslides with Justin LongOn the latest "New Girl," Jess was struggling with her breakup with Russell, worried that she was going to "end up alone... a single, old lady flashing people on the subway.” But she finally snapped out of it and went with CeCe and the roommates to the bar. Schmidt took Jess’ phone so she couldn't “backslide” and call Russell. Jess stole her phone back from Schmidt anyway, and, well...she backslid. Max Greenfield to tweet the truth, and nothing butFans of Fox's “New Girl” know to expect almost anything from Schmidt, the skirt-chasing roommate played by Max Greenfield. On the show, he regularly shocks (and disgusts) his friends; on the Web, Greenfield’s hilarious workout video - in character - has racked up 170,000-plus views in a few days. And on Thursday, fans can expect the truth – about anything they ask him. Greenfield plans to tweet the truth and nothing but the truth for four hours today: from 1-5 p.m. ET/10 a.m.-2 p.m. PT. It’s a promo for the all-natural soda Zevia, which pitches itself as “no sugar, nothing artificial.” Oddly enough, Greenfield says he was drinking the soda before Zevia reached out to him. |
