Josh Harnett playing "Hamlet" in a double-wide

Insiders also tell us that Bruce Willis – who many media outlets insisted was set to play Hamlet’s murdered dad, won’t star in the picture, despite the reportage of scrupulously incautious websites like “Zap2It.”

The indie is being produced by commercials maven Marshall Rawlings will also star Ellen Barkin as a Queen Gertrude-like mother to Harnett; John Malkovich as a cop who romantically cozies up to Harnett’s mom – Uncle Claudius-style.
