House stars may be on summer hiatus from their award-winning show, but their presence can still be felt in their upcoming big screen projects. Just recently, we reported on Jennifer Morrison, who plays Dr. Allison Cameron on the medical drama, and her two film projects. She will soon be seen in Rob Schneider’s comedy, Big Stan, which is due for release in December this year, as well as the Lifetime production of The Murder of Princess Diana, based on the book by Noel Botham. Her co-star and House lead actor, Hugh Laurie, will also be seen in theaters in the film, The Night Watchman.

The Night Watchman stars Keanu Reeves as Tom Ludlow, a veteran cop with the Los Angeles Police Department, who is struggling to go on with his life following his wife’s demise. To make matters even more difficult, evidence implicates him in the execution of a fellow officer. A dedicated and tenacious law enforcer, Tom must now challenge the very people and system he has spent his entire career with, in order to clear his name and redeem his reputation. In the process of proving his innocence, he is forced to question the loyalties of those who surround him and to face the truth about corruption in the police force.

The movie has been adapted for the screen by its original writer, James Ellroy, who is also responsible for the L.A. Confidential and The Black Dahlia novels. It was originally slated to be megged by Spike Lee but is now currently filming under the helm of David Ayer, who also wrote and directed the film, Training Day and wrote the screenplay for other movies like S.W.A.T., The Fast and the Furious and U-571. The Night Watchman also stars Chris Evans, Naomie Harris, Jay Mohr, Martha Higareda, Kirstin Pierce and Academy Award winner for Best Actor, Forest Whitaker. The movie is scheduled for release in 2008.
