Christopher Walken To Play Ozzy Osbourne

Christopher Walken To Play Ozzy Osbourne

You know, Christopher Walken’s not creepy enough. He should up the creepiness ante by portraying Ozzy Osbourne. Just imagine the slow-talking actor as the bat-biting metal legend-turned-mumbling house dad.

Luckily for those who enjoy grand entertainment, that’s actually happening. According to PaperThinWalls.com., not only is Walken playing Osbourne, but he’s playing him in a Mötley Crüe biopic, The Dirt, which is based off their 2001 autobiography The Dirt: Confessions of the World's Most Notorious Rock Band.

The film is now in preproduction and is expected to be released in 2008 by Paramount Pictures and MTV.

You can’t make this stuff up. Check the full news story here.
