David O. Russell's Nailed, which has had its filming schedule halted at least twice due to money problems on the part of its financier, "will resume filming Wednesday thanks to a late-breaking financing deal" between the notoriously shaky Capitol Films and Comerica Bank," according to Hollywood Reporter guys Gregg Goldstein and Leslie Simmons.
"Key cast members, including Jake Gyllenhaal, Jessica Biel and Catherine Keener, were en route to the South Carolina set Tuesday to begin shooting the next day. But the ultimate future of the film from the economically troubled Capitol remains uncertain.
"Sources say the Comerica financing, secured Monday, will help the film meet its projected $25 million budget and additional costs from a week of missed shooting days and union penalties. But some of the filmmakers aren't sure if the funds will last through postproduction."

Normally, I'm not a spiteful person that wishes failure or bad things to happen on others...
...that being said, I want David O. Russell to fail miserably. If you can't get along with Clooney, you have to be a creep.

This movie sounds hysterical and David O. Russell is a genius. Hopefully this film can get finished and everyone gets paid.
