New Patrick Dempsey Movie - Made of Honor

Patrick Dempsey Withdrawal
Grey's Anatomy fans deprived months of McDreamy because of the television writer's strike have the opportunity to once again get mcdrooly with the return of Patrick Dempsey in both Grey's Anatomy and a new romantic comedy - Made of Honor. By the way, if you're already tiring of the Derek - Rose plot line, Grey's Anatomy creator, Shonda Rimes promises a satisfying resolution to the Derek - Meredith on again / off again story line as reported on spoilerfix.com "My goal is to get Meredith and Derek together for good and let them try to figure out what it is to be in a relationship in the future," Grey's Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes revealed to EW.com posted on spoiler fix.com 3/17

Patrick Dempsey as the new Hugh Grant
Hot on the heels of the successful romantic comedy, Enchanted which was just released in movie theaters last November and made available on DVD in March, comes the new Patrick Dempsey movie, Made of Honor. With his sparkling blue eyes, Dempsey, 42, originally first captured our hearts in the 1980s with Can't Buy Me Love and Loverboy. Hugh Grant, 47, in the last few years seems less productive in churning out romantic comedies playing the self-effacing, stuttering but charming Brit. Music and Lyrics came out in 2007, Bridget Jones The Edge of Reason in 2004 and Love Actually in 2003.

New Patrick Dempsey Movie - Made of Honor
"It takes a real man to become a maid of honor." The 30 second elevator pitch? My Best Friend's Wedding - the guy version starring Patrick Dempsey. Usually, movie studios release their most promising movies around Thanksgiving/Christmas, Independence Day and Memorial Day to maximize holiday ticket sales. Made of Honor shows great potential in being released May 2nd, 2008.

Best Friend With Benefits?
The premise as summarized on the Made of Honor website "For Tom (Patrick Dempsey), life is good: he's sexy, successful, has great luck with the ladies, and knows he can always rely on Hannah (Michelle Monaghan), his delightful best friend and the one constant in his life. It's the perfect setup until Hannah goes overseas to Scotland on a six-week business trip...and Tom is stunned to realize how empty life is without her. He resolves that when he gets back, he'll ask Hannah to marry him - but he is floored when he learns that she has become engaged to a handsome and wealthy Scotsman and plans to move overseas. When Hannah asks Tom to be her "maid" of honor, he reluctantly agrees to fill the role...but only so he can attempt to woo Hannah and stop the wedding before it's too late."

Made of Honor Movie Preview Clips
In the classic tradition of romantic comedies where boy meets girl, girl meets another boy, boy tries to woo her back, Patrick Dempsey is irresistibly attractive in his latest role as a serial dater in this summer's romantic date movie Made of Honor. Sure it's pretty formulaic, but what's not to love about rooting for McDreamy in getting the girl?
