Movember Raises Record With Help From Stallone, Gervais, Craig

Dec. 1 (Bloomberg) -- Movember, a global campaign that had men growing moustaches in November to raise awareness and money for male cancer charities, said it had a record fund-raising year with the U.K. showing the most participants.Actors Sylvester Stallone, Daniel Craig, David Spade, and Stephen Fry as well as comedian Ricky Gervais, Formula One driver Jenson Button and soccer player Peter Crouch helped widen the campaign’s appeal.

“It’s word of mouth that’s made it so popular, but also famous names definitely help,” said Ric Boullemier, Movember spokesman. “Guys are notoriously bad at talking about their health so doing something daft and getting people talking makes us all more aware and hopefully saves some lives as well.”

The campaign raised $98.1 million for different prostate and testicular cancer charities, 29 percent more than in 2010, according to the Movember website. About 851,000 people took part, more than double the number in 2010. Britain had the most registrations with more than 252,000 men growing a moustache, raising $23 million, according to the website. Canada had the second most number of registrations at 246,000.

Gervais, who sported a handlebar moustache, tweeted his fans, “Morning Twerps Half way through shaving I paused for Movember. First and last time you will see me like this.” Pop singer Ronan Keating kept his fans updated on his “Novembeard.” Fry tweeted that he may keep his moustache for a “while longer.”

About $166 million has been raised for worldwide cancer charities since Movember began in Melbourne in 2003. The total excludes the amount raised this year.

The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..

He is going to be back here in a couple of weeks!! :happyrunning:

I want him to do Jimmy Fallon. He is always nice to his guests and he is so goofy and funny and can be such a fanboy.

Yes I like Fallon too. he is goofy and always nice as you say. And he is getting good guests. He'll obviously do Kimmel and Leno who have always been nice to him, and the morning shows. Don't think he'll do the View. He might be missing body parts if he did. :) Don't know about Letterman. DC obviously dislikes him. He was rude to DC and I don't think he forgives and forgets easily. I'd love to see him do a profile on the CBS Sunday morning show. It is the best morning news show on TV and their profiles are terrific.

I"m beginning to think he does best with female interviewers. Male interviewers sometimes seem competitive with the Bond thing.

Though I love seeing him on Leno and Kimmel, I wish he would try going on to other talk shows.
Actually The View is a thing I would love to see him do. Whoopi LOVES him. She would be drooling and probably be tongue-tied..... I would love to see them together. Joy Behar is fine too. I can't stand Barbara Walters and that Hasselbeck. It would be great if he and RM did it together.

Is the View filmed in NY? I wonder if he will come west for his junket for Dragon.
If he does the Today show I would like to see him interviewd by Matt Lauer, they do well together, more like guys talking. I love Ann Curray but she get's all tongue tied everytime she interviews him. I think Jimmy Fallon is in NY and that leaves Letrerman and I'm not putting my cards on that happening.

The View is filmed in NY. Leno and KImmel in LA. I'm sure he'll do both Leno and Kimmel. There were always pleasant to him. I agree about Matt Lauer, he did at least two interviews with him and they were much better than the ones with Curray. Tattoo has such big buzz, there will likely be interiews on all the shows with almost everyone involved with the film, even supporting actors. Bet they'd all love to get Fincher.

Sorry, Ladies to interrupt your conversation, but it seams we are getting new British magazine with DC's interview, would be nice to read it, nothing particularly new, but it nice to read his words:

You see someone who is getting as good as they can be,’ suggests Craig [about David Fincher]. ‘That is exciting. It’s unusual. A lot of directors have a big splash and then slide rapidly. It’s like he’s changed his attitude to filmmaking, and that’s a great thing as an artist to do… Great artist? Fucking hell! He should be paying me money for this!’

Turning his mind to Bond, Craig admits that ‘Quantum of Solace’ (2008) was a frustrating experience, not least because the Hollywood writers’ strike meant they ended up filming with an incomplete script. ‘We were fucked,’ he says. ‘We had the bare bones of a script and then there was the strike and there was nothing we could do. We couldn’t employ a writer to finish it. There was me trying to rewrite scenes – and a writer I am not (I bet he smiled here). We were stuffed.’

In contrast, Craig says he could not be happier with the script of ‘Skyfall’, which he is filming now with Mendes until the end of next May. ‘I’m genuinely really excited because we’ve got a script. I think this one is better than “Casino Royale”. I really do. It’s a totally original story. There’s a long thought process that’s gone into it. I read it and it just works as a story.’

Craig believes that the fact that both he and Mendes are British, roughly the same age and share the same memories of growing up with Bond, has greatly helped the planning and execution of ‘Skyfall’.

‘Early on, we sat down and we just rabbited for hours about “Live and Let Die” or “From Russia With Love”, and talked about little scenes that we knew from them. That’s how we started talking about it. That’s what we have tried to instil in the script.’

A full interview with Daniel Craig, in which he talks about ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’, ‘Skyfall’ and more, will appear in the next issue of Time Out London, dated December 8-15 2011 and on shelves from Tuesday December 6 2011.
