almost new movie for Dan, kinda sorta

Source

Russell Brand has revealed that he wanted Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe to play him in the movie version of his autobiography.

The comedian initially thought Radcliffe would by the ideal person to bring My Booky Wook to the big screen.

However, he said he changed his mind when he realised what the part entailed, telling The Mirror: "I thought he wouldn't be able to take all the drink. Or the drugs or fraternising with women. So I thought I should do it."

He added that Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher was in talks to appear as a "seedy homosexual" in the film, which is scheduled to begin shooting this summer.

He said: "[Noel] will be a sexually androgynous, amorphous character - it'll be mad. I was speaking to him about it yesterday, and hopefully it'll be great."

David Walliams is also being lined up to play himself, while Brand is determined to persuade Michael Palin to star as a vindictive headmaster.

Talking about the rest of the cast, he said: "I'm going to hand-pick the ladies. It is difficult doing those sex scenes though - it's very awkward. I feel like I really ought to put on a gold medal display of sexual moves."


I don't know whether to laugh hysterically or be very concerned.

I totally agree but then I looked up the book on Wikipedia & it doesn't sound very good at all. More like complete self-interest than anything of substance. I also wonder if someone that young has really done anything to warrant a biography yet.

i dont think i can handle seeing dan doing drugs. id hate for him to do this movie. I know its more then likely NOT going to happen. But i dont think dan should consider this movie at all!. I know its not up to us but if i could tell him not to i would.

I wouldn't want to see Dan do this movie for the simple reason that I hate Russell Brand. That man annoys the s*** out of me, too conceited. Anyway I think Dan's already occupied otherwise.

I had never heard of the guy but did look up the book & it was described as very self-serving. No, I couldn't see Dan portraying someone like that.
