All the fans of HBO's Sopranos have recently seen the great Ben Kingsley as he is approached by Christopher about starring in a mob thriller. Christopher was hoping Kingsley would play the evil boss ("obviously") only to be turned down by Kingsley's publicist.

What Christopher didn't know is that Kingsley has been in negotiations to star in a mob comedy. Who would of thunk it!


Kingsley, Leoni and Wilson for You Kill Me


According to Variety, Ben Kingsley, Tea Leoni and Luke Wilson will star in You Kill Me under director John Dahl.

The mob comedy was penned by scribes Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. The writing duo wrote the script for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and are currently working on Prince Caspian.

Story revolves around a hitman from Buffalo sent to the West Coast to dry out. He attends AA meetings, gets a sponsor and lands a job in a mortuary, where he meets a woman who is a relative of one of his hits.



The film also stars Dennis Farina, Philip Baker Hall, Bill Pullman and Marcus Thomas and is expected to begin filming later this month in Winnipeg.

Stay tuned for updates.
