Rumor for the Ride Home

Yes, while the trades dither and sit on their hands waiting for the all-powerful Creative Artists Agency to confirm, we at Fishbowl L.A. glibly blather the rumor everyone’s talking about on the way home:

Al Pacino and his black-suited CAA reps are in negotiations to place Pacino as a grizzled Homeland Security/cop-type in Paramount’s “By Any Means Necessary” – the new Antoine Fuqua thriller that posits that the next terror attack on America will come via cargo ship container.

And that makes Al mad!

It also has us issuing a ‘Memo to Dubya’: Summon the Joint Chiefs! Operation: Newark-y Freedom is a ‘go’! Move the Sixth Fleet into Sheepshead Bay!
