Olivia Wilde

White-hot Olivia Wilde ("House", upcoming TRON: Legacy and Cowboys & Aliens) has just joined Universal's The Change-Up, a high-concept comedy starring Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman. David Dobkin (The Wedding Crashers) is directing from a script written by Scott Moore and Jon Lucas (The Hangover). That's a comedy all-star team right there!

According to Deadline.com, Bateman plays a married man who switches bodies with slacker best friend (Reynolds). Wilde will play the married guy's law firm co-worker, who's an impetus for the body switch.

I guess you'd switch a lot of things around for Ms. Wilde...

While Wilde is best known for her TV work, on shows like "House M.D." and "The O.C.", she's making a big run at the movies lately. She's got The Next Three Days opposite Russell Crowe coming out this fall, and Tron: Legacy hitting in December. Plus, she's the female lead in Jon Favreau's high-tech western Cowboys and Aliens, in which she'll share the screen with Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford. Not a bad line-up, and Wilde seems poised for the A-list sooner rather than later...

Do you think Ms. Wilde has what it takes to become a superstar?
