He’s Just Not That Into You looks to be the most ambitious ensemble romantic comedy since Love, Actually. Its all-star cast includes two Oscar winners, a tabloid queen/sitcom legend, a couple of snobs from HBO, and a man that many will be surprised to learn is not in fact a computer. But in these types of epic tales, there are always going to be certain cast members who excite you more than others.

Here’s a rundown of which cast members I’m into:

Connolly needs to tone down his usual smarminess, or audiences just won’t be that into his performance.

Ginnifer Goodwin: Here’s an actress who knows a thing or two about dealing with commitment-phobic men. In Walk The Line, she played the neglected first wife of Johnny Cash, and on the HBO series Big Love, she shares a husband with two other women. Her gift for portraying heartbreaking vulnerability could make her the one to watch in this ensemble.

A charming rom-com performance would help her prove she has versatility and staying power, but after the blandness she displayed in The Nanny Diaries, I’m not sure she has it in her.

Bradley Cooper: With all the charisma Cooper has shown in his TV roles, it’s amazing that so far in his film career he’s been relegated to playing wingman to the likes of Jim Carrey and Matthew McConaughey. This could be his moment to shine. Too bad it appears he’s been saddled with an unsympathetic character — a married man who toys with the heart of his single “friend.”

Ben Affleck: He was once the most overexposed celebrity on the planet (and takes half the blame for the irritating trend of trying to squish celebrity couples’ names together), but I respect Affleck for the slow, quiet comeback he’s been staging over the last two years. If he has even half as much chemistry with Aniston as he had with his last on-screen love interest, Jimmy Kimmel, the rest of the world may finally let bygones be bygones and forgive him for Gigli.

Jennifer Aniston: We all know that the media is very into her romance with John Mayer, and her alleged feud with Angelina Jolie, but Marley and Me reminded people of why anyone cared about Jennifer Aniston in the first place — she’s a gifted comedic actress. Here’s hoping HJNTIY will continue the trend of people noticing her for her work instead of her love life.

Jennifer Connelly: Her film career has already spanned over twenty years, but this is her first foray into comedy. It seems like a bit of an odd career movie, but considering the fact that we don’t get to see her very often, her presence is always welcome.

Justin Long: Based on the clips in the trailer where we see Long acting as the voice of reason and doling out the sage wisdom of the HJNTIY book, I’m going to make an educated guess that he’s going to turn out to be the true heartthrob in this cast. Hopefully it will lead to bigger things for him. Those Mac commercials just aren’t giving me enough Justin Long anymore.

It would’ve been foolish to try to make this movie without her, and hopefully the up-and-comers like Goodwin (and even Johansson) picked up a few tips from her on the set. If Drew weren’t in this movie, I’d be a lot less into the idea of paying ten bucks to see it.
