If you’ve been pining for some Bill Murray main character action (because there’s only so many times you can watch GARFIELD) then this may be the news for you. Murray has reportedly signed on to take the lead role in the upcoming potential Oscar-winner ST. VINCENT DE VAN NUYS.
Murray will play the mentor/grandparent role for his tiny, 12 year-old neighbour, who is left lonely and heartbroken after his parents get divorced. However, Murray’s old geezer character may not be the best kind of influence, as he has a liking for booze, gambling and ladies of the prostitute variety.
The script had been hanging around the 2011 Black List for a while, but has been picked up by Fox. If you really can’t wait to see some more of Mr Murray on the big screen – don’t worry! HYDE PARK ON HUDSON, which stars Murray as Franklin D. Roosevelt, is currently in post-production.

Considering Jazmine grew up watching CARRY ON SCREAMING, THE LION KING and JURASSIC PARK on repeat for weeks on end, it made sense for her to study film at London South Bank University. It’s also a good thing that her course requires a lot of sitting down because she’s very accident-prone. When she’s not examining her bruises, she likes pretending that she doesn’t live in Southend-On-Sea and spends hours mindlessly blogging. Favourite films include BLUE VALENTINE, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and TOY STORY 2.
