According to Variety, Steve Parish's Home Before Daylight is coming to the big screen.
Thoughts?
Who does Robert DeNiro play? And Johnny Depp - Owsley?
I think a all-star cast will kill this movie IMO.
If it was up to me I would go with this.Don't forget this is in the early years.
Jerry-Kevin Corrigan
Phil-Jon Heder
Pigpen-
mickey-Billy Crudup
Bobby-Emile Hirsch
Billy-
for timothy leary they need a big actor that is good at being eccentric.
I.E. -William Defoe,Woody Harrelson
meh, its late ill think of the some more later
so when does this ting come out
are they in production
or the very early concept stage?
i personally just can't wait till this thing comes out
Tommy Chong as Jerry!! Brilliant!! It also ties in to one of the Cheech and Chong films where he was mistaken for Jerry!
Bill Murray as Bill K. also works, the right look for sure at least!
Lip syncing would be a must, who could match the boys in real life..!
Mind u, the producers probably want younger actors to play the boys in the 60s and then they can age them with computer generated effects!
Better to have something extra out there. U can never predict how such a production will turn out, if it does at all. It still makes younger listeners curious "to see just who those guys really are" though! It would turn on more than turn off no matter what. From the point of view that even bad publicity is better than no publicity!
Are you kind?
I figured they could just lipsink. I don't think anyones voice could cut it!!
his voice just won't cut it, do ya think??
nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile
I would have say Tommy Chong would be an excellent Jerry. As for the rest of the band I'm not sure.
David Cross - Jerry;
Trey Anastasio or Tim Roth - Phil;
Eddie Vedder or Val Kilmer - Bob;
Steve Buscemi or Michael Madsen - Mickey;
Bill Murray or Will Arnet - Billy;
Sissy Spacek - Donna;
Billy Crudup - Pig;
Harvey Keitel or Michael Madsen - Bill Graham;

Any more news on this latest endeavor? I read the book 4 times. Great story. I would certainly like to read more like this, and if a movie comes out all the better. I like the day to day type narration and flow of the book. Being a deadhead for a very long time I am familiar with a lot of the main stories that are told in phils book.
