Actor Wagner Moura (Elite Squad
and Elysium) has been tapped to play Bozo the tv clown. The show featuring the
clown ran from the 1960’s all the way to the 80’s in the USA, Mexico and
Brazil, with each country starring its own Bozo.
According to Omelete, Moura is
set to play one of the Brazilian Bozo’s although the actor didn’t specify which
one, but the site speculates it is “Arlindo Barreto, the most famous Brazilian
Bozo, who got himself into a cocaine addiction in the 80′s and today is a
pentecostal preacher”.
Daniel Rezende will be making his
directorial debut after a career in editing (Elite Squad, City of God, The
Motorcycle Diaries and the RoboCop reboot).
The actor says that the Bozo
project will begin “after he wraps the Triple Frontier movie that José Padilha
(RoboCop) will shoot this year.”
