Helen Mirren to star in next Tarantino film?

[twaddington]

A rumour has emerged that Helen Mirren will be making an appearance in the Quentin Tarantino's next film, which is, as of yet untitled and actually not yet been confirmed by the director. The rumour goes that Mirren will be playing a foul mouthed Queen in a film that will be set in the English Middle Ages. It's a tantalising prospect for Tarantino fans, probably not so much for some of Helen Mirren's fans though.  It does seem like the kind of that Tarantino would do as well, cast the woman who won an Oscar for her starring role in The Queen as another, less polite Queen.



After a bit of digging around however, it turns out that the rumour originates from British tabloid 'The Sun' aka 'the biggest shit mongerers in the world', so it's pretty much a write off. Let's just hope Quentin sees the rumour and thinks it's a good idea because Tarantino+ Mirren+ Medieval= something I want to see.

Oh come on I can't front page this. It's total bs. Don't report ANY stories that originate from The Sun. A year ago they claimed Eddie Murphy had been cast as The Riddler. Earlier this week they reported that producers were thinking about shooting Sex And The City 3 back to back with Sex And The City 2. It's a bit late to making that decision now! They have no insiders in LA, they're just sitting in London thinking up movies, with people their readers have heard of.

Yeah I just put it there because i liked the rumour so much, despite knowing it's fake. Probably not the most professional way of reporting but hey, who said i'm professional.

A film insider said: "Chris wasn't sure if he wanted to do another movie but as soon as he decided to, he got the wheels in motion.

"Eddie's a fantastic addition. Everyone's excited to see what he does as the Riddler."
