Adele to play baddie alongside Becks and Elton in the weirdest sounding film ever
Quote:
Unlikely thespian Adele has reportedly signed up to play a baddie spy in a new film, which bizarrely also stars David Beckham and Elton John.
The singer is the latest recruit for new Brit flick (we are sincerely hoping this is going to be a comedy) The Secret Service. The three will be showcasing their acting, um, skills playing a team of villains in the spy film.
Director Matthew Vaughn is looking to turn cash by cramming the movie full of stars. A source told The Sun: "He wants the highest profile names in various fields to boost the film's cause and turn it into a mega-money franchise
"You can't get much bigger than Adele, which is why he's so keen to get her involved. She'll be great value on the big screen."
The film is based on a graphic novel by the creator of Kick-Ass, but of course no sort-of-awful-but-brilliant British film would be complete without Colin Firth in the starring role as senior spy. Michael Caine will be bringing up the rear as a veteran secret agent and very non British Samuel L Jackson will be playing the primary villain in the movie.
Can't blame Katy and Gaga for going with safe pop candy. We all saw what happened to Legend X when she released the darkwave industrial song Your Body.
