Bill Hicks - The Movie

(1/5) > >>

Faker:
So Russell Crowe to play Bill Hicks (story here)

I am a massive fan of Hicks, and whilst I think Crowe is an excellant actor, just doesn't feel right to me.

Jackie Blue:
That... is certainly an interesting casting decision...

He's got the look about right, but I don't know if he can really pull off the personality.

Then again, Dustin Hoffman as Lenny Bruce probably sounded a bit strange at the time, and that turned out fantastic.

Katherine:
Hmm... when I read the title, I thought to myself "Who on Earth would play a good Bill Hicks?"  But I have to say, when I saw that it would be Russell Crowe, I didn't scoff.  I'm not a big Crowe fan, but I think he could do justice to the late, great Bill Hicks.

KvP:
I don't see this ending well.

DOOM

Anyway, seeing how Crowe is "interested", not attached, and the script isn't finished yet, the real news in that story is that, alas, The Yiddish Policeman's Union will not be the next Coens joint.

knives:
He looks kind of like Hicks, but I doubt he'll do the accent right. Either way I welcome it. Be cool to have Jones direct it though.
