James Marsden and Darren Aronofsky might have a lot of things going on for them (Marsden with Westworld and Aronofsky with Jackie) at the moment, but the two Americans are making time for a visit to Singapore this week. Now in its 27th year, the Singapore International Film Festival (SGIFF) will see a slew of celebrities gracing the red carpet at Marina Bay Sands. Apart from Marsden and Aronofsky, you’ll also get to see acclaimed talents such as Michelle Yeoh and Simon Yam. That is, if you’re lucky.

Successful in franchises such as X-Men, Superman Returns and rom-coms such as 27 Dresses, The Notebook and Enchanted, Marsden comes to us thanks to IWC Schaffhausen, who continues their official partnership with the festival. As the watch brand’s ambassador, Marsden will be attending the SGIFF Benefit Dinner.

Also attending this exclusive soiree is Aronofsky, who’s hot on the heels of the trailer releases of Jackie, which he’s producing. A name behind films such as Requiem for a Dream and Black Swan, the director and producer lends his craft to the Natalie Portman-led film about Jackie Kennedy and her life following the assassination of her husband and then president of the United States, John F. Kennedy. You’ll also get to pick his brains at the masterclass to be held in ArtScience Museum.

Anyone with eyes can see James Marsden is a good-looking dude.

And on CBS’ The Late Show Tuesday, Stephen Colbert complimented the Westworld actor on a recent honor that made it official. “GQ has named you the World’s Most Handsomest Man,” he said. “First of all, does that come with anything? Is there a medal or cash prize, or do you just get to keep your face?” Hamming it up, Marsden smoldered at the camera and feigned humility. “No, it’s just my lot. It’s just a burden,” he said. “It’s just an albatross around my neck.”

“As a teenager, were you a stud growing up?” Colbert asked.

Nearly nine years after it first hit theaters, Disney’s follow-up to Enchanted, titled Disenchaned, has finally found its director. Hairspray and Rock of Ages director Adam Shankman is in talks to direct the Enchanted sequel, which the studio has been developing since 2010. Original Enchaned star Amy Adams is expected to reprise her role as princess Giselle. Although it isn’t known if James Marsden or any of the other original cast members will be back for Enchanted 2.

The original Enchanted centered on Amy Adams’ Giselle, who is set to marry her Prince Charming (James Marsden) before she is taken from her animated fantasy world and thrust into our real world in New York City. There she meets a lawyer (Patrick Dempsey) who is about to marry a woman (Idina Menzel) who is completely wrong for him. The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Disenchanted will take place 10 years after the original movie, following Giselle as she questions her “happily ever after” life, which triggers events that disrupt everyone’s lives in both the real world and the fantasy land of Andalasia.

Disney first started developing Enchanted 2 in 2010, when The Proposal director Anne Fletcher came aboard, taking over for original Enchanted director Kevin Lima. The Smurfs and The Smurfs 2 writers J. David Stem and David N. Weiss came aboard to write the script in 2014, although it isn’t known if the studio has brought in other writers since then. Anne Fletcher was still attached to Enchanted 2 last year, when we reported that the sequel will now be entitled Disenchanted.

James Marsden may have good looks and star appeal, but the actor took time on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Friday to express his anguish for the heartbroken men he plays on screen.

During a visit to the late-night talk show, Bachelor and Bachelorette host Chris Harrison described Nick Viall, the upcoming suitor for the reality series, as “the James Marsden of Bachelor’s.” Marsden has played a leading man countless times in his career, but the actor disagrees with his heartthrob status. “Oh I’m scared to ask what that means,” the actor joked. “Does it mean he has bad luck getting the girl?”

Causing the audience to sigh in support, which Marsden says “always feels nice,” the Hairspray star recalls most of his high-profile films ending with his character “not getting the girl.” He cites Hugh Jackman of the X-Men franchise and Ryan Gosling in The Notebook as the main culprits for keeping his characters single. Dimming the lights and pulling in the house band, Marsden expresses this sad truth through a rendition of Kenny Rogers hit “Lady.” “I sing to them. I serenade them,” delivered Marsden in a musical interlude. “But they always go with the Gosling.”
