Hey folks, Harry here... Well, confirmed is a loose word here... this isn't Variety or Hollywood Reporter confirmation, it's THE SUN - which in turn seems to be feeding SKY NEWS and the BBC in the Uk - as I've received reports this morning that both of them have been passing on THE SUN's story - which in turn - could very well have been feeding off that rumor-mongering trash heap that Quint was running last week. Oh wait, that's us! Well then, it must be true! From the look of THE SUN's report, they're either making up additional facts or got someone in Matthew Vaughn's camp or Vinnie Jones' camp to squeak. As they're making claims about Vinnie playing a character 7 ft tall and 65 stones in weight... whatever the fuck that means. As for Vinnie being the right guy for the role? Well - personally I can imagine him raging out and slamming ol Steel-skinned lad into the side of a building 30 or 40 time while smiling maniacally. Can't you?
Harry, not sure if you have this or not.
Reported In "The Sun" the main UK tabloid paper this morning Monday
April 18th.
"Vinnie's X-rated Film Role"
"Tough guy Vinnie Jones is set to play a super-powered villain in X-men
3
The ex-footballer will play Hulk-style baddie Juggernaut in the movie.
Vinnie, 40, will wear a four-stone latex suit to boost his muscles for
the role - Juggernaut is 7ft tall and weighs 65st.
He will star along side Sir Ian McKellen, Rebecca Romijn, Halle Berry
and Hugh jackman.
Filming starts later this year. A source said: "Vinnie thinks it's a
great laugh and can't wait to get into the suit."
