Welcome Back, Mrs. Modano

Here at FanHouse, we never need an excuse to write about Willa Ford, aka Mrs. Mike Modano. Whether she's opening up to a reporter in a manner that would cause nothing but heartburn for the Dallas Stars or furthering her budding acting career, it's always a good day when Ford shows up in the news.

So what's today's excuse? It turns out that Ford is appearing in a new pictorial in Maximal, better known as the international edition of Maxim. What's the news hook there? Apparently, somebody is trying to talk up Ford's portrayal of Anna Nicole Smith in a biopic of the same name.

But as near as I can tell, though the movie was slated for release last weekend, there isn't any evidence that you can actually see it anywhere in the U.S. I guess that's just par for the course for Ford, as her last movie, Impulse, was another direct-to-DVD special.
