PALIN TO ACT ALONGSIDE DEPP?

Movie & Entertainment News provided by World Entertainment News

MONTY PYTHON star MICHAEL PALIN looks set to be tempted out of retirement with a role starring alongside Hollywood actor JOHNNY DEPP.

The British comedian is reportedly in talks with director Terry Gilliam to star in his much-delayed movie The Man Who Killed Don Quixote.
Production was originally halted on the film in 2000 after lead actor Jean Rochefort fell ill and part of the set was lost in a flood. However, Gilliam is due to restart production next year (09), with Depp reprising his role.
And the moviemaker has now reportedly turned to Palin to take on Rochefort's character.

A source tells British newspaper the Daily Express, "Terry passionately believes that Michael should get back into films and feels he would make an excellent Don Quixote." Palin announced earlier this year (Feb08) that he was retiring from the movie business as he has had "his fill of acting".

Yeah I can see him sitting on the horse with the pot/bedpan on his head,
He looks Don Qish.

Seriously, are we serious??? I'm sorry.... this is just too much
too funny

It's been a day of sticking my neck out, so what the hell, I'll go on record as saying I hope this rumor is true. Wow, the possibilities, I'd be positively giddy. Gid-dy. On par with my excitement over the Sweeney Todd rumor. Really.

Wish I could come up with a Pythonesque response, but I'm not clever like that, so that's all you're getting.

*waits for disappointment of official confirmation to the contrary* helloooo

*sigh* Trying to contain excitement is difficult.

And now for something completely different.

It had to be done.

as long as its you dewin the poultry, then I'm fine with it.
I too was serious about Palin being the bedpan head, he would be fabo, in my not so humble opinion.
Now, wheres the chicken fingers

In that picture in particular I can really see it, the horse and hat thing (giddy => Fanny Hates it

), as for the chicken Eek

and its fingers, ew not going there. Walked right into that one I did, should know better. not listening

"Your mother smelled of elderberry wine"

or "I fart in your general direction "

makes no sense to the topic in hand

but

I can
honeslty appreciate how Gilliam
would love to have him on board
and I'll bet the hialrity on set would
make for another "reality" movie
