I will immediately be there to see this! (If it's true of course)




EDIT: Wow, talk about dropping the ball....I meant Ozzy. Fuck my life. I will go cry in a corner now.

I heard about this a while back and I always thought it was just internet rumor, until I see a picture or trailer I wont believe it.

Its just like this rumor

That would be awesome! I'd definetly pay to see Walken as Ozzy! Even though this sounds like a made for TV movie on VH1.

I might actually not like this decision. I mean, i'd have trouble not seeing Walken for Walken aswel as would he able to not be Walken but be Ozzy. It could very well work, but that has me worried.

Vince Neil says it's true: http://abcnews.go.com/entertainment/story?id=2632446

Of course, that's a 2 year old story, and that's Vince Neil, so...

Fixed the title for ya clever guy! :)

This is a bitshit crazy rumour, but wow...would it ever be awesome if true. Christopher Walken could play toast, and I'd be stoked about it.

You know......I actually think he could pull it off! Just imagine Walken with some extra pounds, long hair, and talking in that slurry way that Ozzy talks.

Thanks Blank. I've been saying this shit for years, Christopher Walken needs to have a movie where he plays, like, 5 different people a la Mike Myers or Eddie Murphy.

Anywho, I really hope this Ozzy shit is true. Then again, it's IMDB.

Ozzy the slurring Americanized mess maybe.

The brummie accent is notoriously difficult, even for English people...if it's done wrong it just ends up being ridiculously OTT and comedic.

Walken is a decent actor, but I seriously doubt he could be convincing in this role.

White-up Lenny Henry again a la True Identity and we'll be cooking with gas!

Who says Walken needs to be convincing? I don't think any one person watching this (if it were true) would be thinking "holy balls, Christopher Walken makes a damned fine Ozzy!" Nope' they'll be thinking: "Christopher Walken still manages to be a fucking badass, even though he totally fucked up Ozzy," or something to that extent.
