File Under: We Told You So; Rosario Dawson Says No to Kevin Smith

Ahh, schadenfreude.

MTV movies posted a story a few weeks back where Kevin Smith said he would be “flabbergasted” if Rosario Dawson didn’t star in his upcoming sure-to-be masterpiece, “Zack and Miri Make a Porno,” because he wrote the friggin’ part for her.

Our inside source told us that Rosario had already passed and today came word what we already knew.

“It’s going to be a really interesting film. I don’t think I’m going to be a part of it,” Dawson told MTV. “[Smith] wrote it for me, but I’m just signing on to do [”Eagle Eye”] and that’s going to be shooting from November to March.”

AKA, “sorry, I’m fucking busy.” Try writing movies that aren’t strictly juvenile equivalents of 80-minute blue-flame farts.
