According to Deadline Hollywood Daily, the David Russell-directed indie comedy Nailed has had its production shut down for the fourth time. The problem once again rose from IATSE crew members not being paid and thus being ordered not to show up on set.
There are two days of principal photography still left, including a key restaurant scene, so the situation is expected to be resolved quickly.
The film stars James Marsden, Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal, and is expected to hit theaters sometime next year following post-production.

This is great news because I haven’t seen James Brolin in a movie for quite some time. He is replacing James Caan in David O. Russell’s “Nailed,” with Kirstie Alley and Olivia Crocicchia also boarding the politically charged romance-comedy.
According to Hollywood Reporter, Caan and the director had a heck-of-a-time deciding on how to choke on a cookie. Brolin is lucky. He can turn to his son Josh for advice: The younger Brolin will portray George W. Bush choking on a pretzel in a scene from Oliver Stone’s upcoming biopic.
Alley plays a veterinarian who fails to remove a nail from the head of her niece (Jessica Biel) — funny. The injured woman travels to Washington to fight for better health care with the help of a disgruntled youth (Crocicchia) and falls for a congressman (Jake Gyllenhaal) – even crazier.
