Stop listening to those rumors that Robert Rodriguez’s Barbarella remake is failing to achieve escape velocity. Rose McGowan, who’s set to step into Jane Fonda’s go-go boots, says the movie is much further along than you realize. Not only is she signed up, but a lot of the pre-production work is done, including the costumes and a lot of the sets — including part of Barbarella’s spaceship. “I’ve got part of a spaceship built for me!” she exults. (Dear readers: please send us pics of those sets. Thanks.) The only wrinkle: Barbarella wouldn’t be able to finish shooting by June, when the actors’ strike is supposed to start. Image by Z.
