Celebrity Poker: Emile Hirsch

About Emile Hirsch: Emile Hirsch is one prodigy who actually has his head screwed on straight. The son of an industrial consultant and a pop-up book artist, Emile Hirsh began acting at the age of 8 and by the time he was 14 he had appeared in more than a dozen television shows, including 3rd Rock from the Sun, NYPD Blue and ER.





Emile Hirsch began acting in the late 1990s, appearing in many minor roles on television shows or made-for-television films, including Kindred: the Embraced, and Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. He made his film debut with the 2002 drama, The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys, where he starred opposite Kieran Culkin in the story of two Catholic school boys. His next role was in the prep school drama, The Emperor's Club, which was released later in 2002. Both films received generally positive reviews, but performed only moderately at the box office.




In 2005, Hirsch starred in Lords of Dogtown; the film, about a number of well-known skaters of the 1970s, was released on June 3, 2005, but it ultimately performed poorly at the box office. Hirsch's next role will be in Alpha Dog with Justin Timberlake , a dark drama about drug dealer Jesse James Hollywood; the film is scheduled to be released on January 12, 2007. Hirsch has also been cast as adventurer Christopher McCandless in the Sean Penn-directed drama Into the Wild.





And just a month ago, Emile Hirsch with celebrity poker player Jessica Biel and Isabel Lucas trudged through a blizzard Monday on the fifth day of their hike with other entertainers and activists up 19,340-foot Mt. Kilimanjaro. The celeb-powered Summit on the Summit climb—which also included Lupe Fiasco, Robert Kennedy's granddaughter, Kick, and Jacques Cousteau's granddaughter, Alexandra—reached its goal today at the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest point in Africa.




The six-day trek up the 19,341-foot peak was organized by Grammy-nominated musician Kenna to raise money on behalf of water-conservation issues. "The last 48 hours have been the most intense and physically grueling experience of my life, miraculously we all made it to the top together," Emile Hirsch, best known for his outdoorsy role in Into the Wild, texted upon summiting.





The climbers battled a variety of obstacles, including altitude sickness, nausea, stomach ailments, knee problems and yesterday's intense snowstorm at 16,000 feet, which fellow climber and United Nations Foundation exec Elizabeth Gore called "pretty gnarly."



Overture Films is developing a modern-day adaptation of "Hamlet" to star Emile Hirsch. "Twilight" helmer Catherine Hardwicke is on board to direct, with Dan Jinks and Bruce Cohen producing. Jinks and Cohen credited Emile Hirsch with coming up with the idea for the modernized version.

The producers noted that there hasn't been a movie version with an appropriately aged actor playing the role. Overture said it hopes to have a finished script in the coming months, with principal photography commencing soon thereafter.
