Posted Sep 9, 08 4:13 PM CDT in Sports Gossip Arts & Living 

(Newser) – New Line Cinema will produce a romantic comedy based on hockey star Sean Avery’s summer internship at Vogue, the Hollywood Reporter notes. “I think it's great to be into something that you care about,” the fashion-savvy Avery said of his apparently odd choice of off-season employment. “But I’m still an athlete who likes to beat the crap out of people.”
