A great article from the current issue of The New Yorker on the Farrelly Brothers' Three Stooges project. I didn't even know that they were trying this. What a difficult undertaking.
They really want Russell Crowe as Moe and Larry David for Larry.

I thought they wanted Benicio Del Toro for Moe. They do share the same, biting glass face. Larry David as Larry? I love LD but Larry should be a little thicker, although both are some whiners.
The article mentions Del Toro for Moe, but the really want Russell Crowe. They also are thinking about Sean Penn for Larry.

Russell Crowe and Sean Penn, two of the finest actors of our generation, together for the first time.....in The Three Stooges. Just to complete the trifecta, get Ben Kingsley as Curly.

Ben Kingsley would be great, but he's not thick enough through the torso to play Curly. How about Bob Hoskins?
So sayeth Randy Stilton, the real Stinky Cheese Man!
(I'm told that, in the UK, my name is actually hilarious.)
As long as there's a scene in the opening credits where Shemp is bludgeoned to death with a sledgehammer (comedically, of course), I don't care who plays what part.

I'm not sure he wants to be typecast as he tries to break into the movies, but the part you just described was absolutely MADE for HHH... ;-)

Michael Waltrip passes Robby Gordon and re-enters the top 10 with his win at Talladega. Ryan Newman extends his points lead with his 4th-place finish, and Dale Earnhardt Jr.
