Sapphic Casting…
Singer Britney Spears will reportedly play a murderous lesbian in Quentin Tarantino’s remake of Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! “The movie sees three thrill-seeking strippers encountering a young couple in the desert. Spears’ character murders the boyfriend with her bare hands before taking the girlfriend hostage. The troubled singer will also have sex scenes with another girl before the drama ends in a blood-bath.” [Telegraph]
Lindsay is gonna be pissed about this one.
Remaking this movie is like remaking Gone with the Wind or Citizen Kane. You don’t touch perfection – remember Psycho?
Britney better get herself a Mark Eden Bust Developer if she wants to live up to Tura Satana’s original performance.
If ever anyone was going to re-do Russ Meyers, esp. FP!K!K! Tarantino would be it. He totally understands and respects the style. Can’t wait!
YES.
This is wonderful. Quentin must have some faith to cast her. So I will trust his judgment.
Crossroads was on Bravo the other night. I had to watch it. Its so awesomely bad.
The Telegraph is almost as full of sh!t as The Sun. I wouldn’t invest faith in anything they say.
i thought he was remaking “Inglorious Bastards”…
Perfection!
Now that her PURE image is shattered maybe she will start doing some interesting work and this would be a good start if its true.
Who knows what will happen when you take away the corporate suits and ties and surround her with some real creative talent (though there is not much left in this country anymore).
I’m going to call bluff on this one. There is no way her father would let her do a role that is that controversial after all the positive work that has been done to get her healthy. Plus, she is focusing on what she does best – her music.
oh. my god. the premise sounds fantastically campy, any homo who gives this a yawn is lying.
I think they call that “type-casting”.
