"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Ewan McGregor's going to star in a new London production of "Othello" as Iago, with Chiwetel Ejiofor as Othello.

Buffista heavy breathing aside, this is some interesting casting. I'd be curious to see how EM does, as I don't think I've ever seen him play an out and out villain before. His natural likeability could make for a very interesting take on the character.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Congrats on the addition to the family, sarameg.

I'm trying to think where I saw Ewan play a nasty little shit--the insider trading movie, at least. Can't remember where else, but I do think his likeability makes for a more interesting villain.

Kinda like Denzel's turn in Training Day. He didn't turn off the appeal--he just used it for evil.

WOW! Note to self: Plan London trip. Also, rob bank to fund London trip.

Oooh! yay! congrats sarameg! Tyler is adorable.

Ewan=supreme yumminess. Wasn't he an asshat in Trainspotting? It's been years since I've seen it and I can't quite remember.

Rogue Trader I think. Never saw that, but I remember the previews (on HBO, I think).

I do think his likeability makes for a more interesting villain.

Exactly.
