- We predicted big things for this guy way back when, and it’s just getting better! Seems that the guy’s really gonna be a household name soon. With the new Cameron Crowe/Stillwater flick coming out, Lee’s already working on a ton of new projects…First, we had that one with Jennifer Love-Hewitt, now a new ensemble from Sonnenfeld. Wow, this guy’s racking up some great projects, and good for him!

HOLLYWOOD (Variety) – Jason Lee has been cast in Barry Sonnenfeld’s ensemble comedy “Big Trouble,†which stars Tim Allen and Rene Russo.
Tom Sizemore and Katie Holmes also star in the story about a group of people whose lives are interrupted when a nuclear device inside a suitcase is rigged to go off in a Miami airport.
“Trouble†is based on the best-selling novel by Pulitzer Prize-winning newspaper columnist Dave Barry. Production begins in August in Miami.
Lee will join the set immediately after wrapping the MGM comedy “The Breakers,†which stars Jennifer Love Hewitt and Sigourney Weaver. He was most recently seen in Lawrence Kasdan’s “Mumford,†and next stars as the lead singer of a rock band in a Cameron Crowe feature for DreamWorks.
