Fox Gambles on Jonah Hill's Inner, Animated 7-Year-Old

· Jonah Hill piled another project on to his plate for 2010, signing on to co-write and contribute voice work for a new, untitled animated series for Fox. The show will follow a wealthy 7-year-old who behaves and talks like an adult but whose life is turned upside down when he's forced to attend public school. The equally busy Peter Chernin will produce; I think we'd all rather see Hill tackle Chernin's big Moses project instead, but as usual, they neglected to ask us. [Variety]

Clive Owen to experience the David Schwimmer touch, William H. Macy gets patriarchal, and more Hollywood Ink after the jump.

· Not to be outdone by Matthew Perry's resurgence this week, David Schwimmer will return to the director's chair for the semi-indie drama Trust. His unlikely-ish leading man: Clive Owen, who will co-star with Catherine Keener as the parents of a 14-year-old victim of an online sexual predator. Avi Lerner's Millennium Films (88 Minutes, Righteous Kill, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans) will produce and finance, a sure sign that the subject matter's treatment will be tasteful and modest. Or at least as tasteful and modest as the inevitable revenge scored to pulsating urban jams can be. [Variety]

· William H. Macy is headed to Showtime, where he'll lead a Stateside adaptation of the British TV hit Shameless. Macy will star as the alcoholic patriarch of a dysfunctional blue-collar Chicago family, whose 18-year-old daughter is charged with taking care of her five younger siblings. Apparently it's a drama, which has "missed opportunity" written all over it. [Variety]

· Jesus Christ! No, really: An anatomically accurate 3-D hologram of Jesus will accompany a new film about the Shroud of Turin. [THR]

· ABC has ordered 13 episodes of the crime drama The Gates, about a chief of police in a quiet gated community who soon discovers that the residents are up to all kinds of naughtiness: The local godfather paints his house an unapproved shade of beige, his ne'er-do-well son begins parking his Audi on the street... you know, the hard stuff. Chaos reigns. [THR]
