To be ridiculously excited about this?

[Sixweekstowait]

A Hollywood film is being made based on a real life story and one of the main characters ( the real person not the actor) is my husband's cousin. Will start thread later about what to wear for the premiere

Forgot

Oh wow. Keep us posted

Last year I was at a training course and as an icebreaker we had to state one interesting fact about ourselves - I didn't have one but now......

Is/was your husband's cousin an under-cover police officer?

Is your husband's cousin Jamie Vardy?

What - no
Here - who is Jamie Vardy?

Well who is it?

Who is Jamie Vardy?! He's only the most prized possession in the collection of Match Attax cards of my 5 year old. Jamie gets tucked up into bed/pride of place in his binder every night.

PS. You know you now HAVE to tell us who your husband's cousin is don't you?!

oh dear - I wish it were more interesting. But will find a link

Here it is - I expect most of you are too young to have heard of Gloria Grahame ( who Annetter Bening is playing). Apparently Julie Walters is playing my DH's cousin's mother - don't know who is playing DH's cousin. Well there you go - I'm still excited ( in my defence I'm having a very boring w/e in bed with a dreadful cold and cough)

ANNETTE BENING CAST TO PLAY GLORIA GRAHAME.

Barbara Broccoli and Colin Vaines's production of 'Film Stars Don't Die In Liverpool' is set to begin shooting in late June with Paul McGuigan to direct from a screenplay by Matt Greenhalgh.
More to follow...

Gloria Grahame! i love her as Ado Annie in Oklahoma :) And Liverpool is near me!! (I got very excited at the Florence Foster Jenkins film being film locally!)

You're going to have to update us as to who plays DH's cousin, you know.

Hope you feel better soon

Just found out Jamie Bell ( of Billy Rlliot fame)is playing DH's cousin < looks for family resemblence> Hummm
