Jan 8 2007Kirsten Dunst as Debbie Harry?
Ut-oh, Kirsten Dunst! What have you done now? Revealed that you might be playing Blondie's Debbie Harry in a biopic by Michel Gondry? Says Film Ick:
Yet again, Kirsten Dunst has let a closely guarded secret out of her loose lips. In an interview with the New Zealand website Stuff, she has announced an upcoming project with Michel Gondry. She lets on that the film is "about somebody who everybody knows, but I can't say who it is" and then admits that this person is a "well-known singer".This chimes perfectly with the bits and pieces I have picked up about the potential Debbie Harry biopic - but I simply didn't know that Michel was directing. Now I do, then, yes, maybe, I can see a reason to be very excited about this film.
I find both choices ideal, because I've always thoroughly believed Debbie Harry's life could best be expressed through surreal stop-motion, bizarre props, and terrible, snaggle-toothed acting. Hooray!

I PERSONALLY DO NOT THINK THAT KIRSTIAN DUSNT WILL BE A GOOD DEBBIE HARRY, SHE DOES NOT EVEN COME CLOSE TO LOOKING LIKE HER. NOW MICHELLE PFFIFER, THATS ANOTHER STORY. SHE WILL BE A GOOD DEBBIE HARRY SHE HAS THE SAME FACIAL FEATURES AS MS. DEBBIE. I DOUBT THAT DEBBIE HARRY SAID, SHE PICKED KIRSTIAN DUNST TO PLAY HER.
