    Russell Crowe to play Bill Hicks in a movie of his life.

    Where can I go to stop it?

    "More time in Australia is always a bonus," Crowe said last week.

    "I have another project based on the life of comedian Bill Hicks, which is going from treatment to draft stage with Kiwi writer Mark Staufer."

    It is understood he is considering playing the main role of Hicks — a controversial and brilliant American comedian who battled drug and alcohol abuse before dying from cancer at 32. Crowe confirmed Nottingham would not go ahead until March next year because director Sir Ridley Scott wanted the leaves on the trees in England's Sherwood Forest to be the right colour

    Is that a picture of Bill Hicks on Wiki (never heard of him) or has someone posted a pic of Russell Crowe in his place?

      Wrong!

      Very wrong.

      Bill Hicks was one of the greatest comedians I have ever heard, never afraid to to speak his mind no matter who or what part of society he upset!

      Such a shame he's likely to get the usual Hollywood drivel movie based around him.

        I think that anything that draws the world's attention to Bill Hicks is good. I may well eat my words, though.

            A funny man, but not to the hero-worship level.
            & he was never particularly popular in America, which must be annoying for an American.
