The internet movies database has this to say about the man:
"John Cusack is, like most of his characters, an unconventional hero. Wary of fame and repelled by formulaic Hollywood fare"
Which, fabulously for my self-confidence, backs up my statement nicely. I would hardly call Serendipity, Americas Sweethearts and Con-Air contemporary hollywood fare.
The movie "martian child" in which he will star, is also in pre-production. imdb outlines the plot:
"Crushed by the death of his fiancée, a writer (koosak) adopts a 6-year-old boy in an effort to create a family. The boy, who desperately wants a father, is troubled by the idea that he's from Mars"
which could go either way on the strength of the evidence supplied by two forum posters who say respectively:
WB2071 - "i am a lesbian who has adopted a child...a simple, beautiful story"
innoirwriterhell - "Cusack is too chicken to play a gay"
(any information omitted from those posts was, believe me, useless)
Our man is also currently filming "Must Love Dogs" (A fortysomething preschool teacher looks to the personals for a change of pace)
and "A Dolls House" which I fucking hated having to study at long road. A feminist play about some woman who doesn't run away because of the injustice but because she's too goddam stupid to know that her husband's having a go at her because she's a complete slut
