Jennifer Garner is set to star in a Broadway show. The 'Alias' actress is in negotiations to star opposite Kevin Kline in a New York stage production of 'Cyrano de Bergerac.'

Jennifer will play a French socialite called Roxanne - who the romantic, but large-nosed, soldier Bergerac is secretly in love with. Steve Martin starred as Bergerac in the 1987 movie adaptation of the play, called 'Roxanne.'

Steve Martin has married fiance Anne Stringfield in a surprise ceremony. The 'Father of the Bride' actor tied the knot with the former New Yorker journalist at his Los Angeles home.

Guests at the wedding - who included Tom Hanks, Diane Keaton and Eugene Levy - were not informed of the nuptials and had instead been told they would be attending an intimate dinner party.

Steve Martin is to marry girlfriend Anne Stringfield. The 'Father of the Bride' star has proposed to the former New Yorker journalist, who has recently been writing for US Vogue, and the pair are set to walk down the aisle very soon.

The 61-year-old actor divorced his first wife, Victoria Tennant, in 1994 after eight years of marriage and went on to date actress Anne Heche.

With past hosts of the Academy Awards used the time on stage to play off the star audience, Ellen DeGeneres' approach to the gig has been labeled as "safe" by some critics.

While the comedienne and talk-show host did not go as risque as previous hosts such as Jon Stewart, Chris Rock and Steve Martin, DeGeneres says the experience was more nerve-wracking than she initially anticipated.
