My little birds tell me that Peter Dinklage is starring in My Dinner with Herve, a biographical flick directed by Sacha Gervasi (Anvil! The Story of Anvil). The movie is based on Gervasi’s interview with actor Herve Villechaize (Tattoo in TV’s Fantasy Island) days before the actor committed suicide in 1993. Gervasi wrote the screenplays for The Terminal, starring Tom Hanks, and The Big Tease and Henry’s Crime, in which he was also the executive producer.
Dinklage has been rumored to play the part for several years, but I hear tell that test shoots are currently underway with Peter Dinklage and co-star Dominic Cooper. If all goes as planned, they may film this Fall, after Game of Thrones wraps for the season.
Edit: Shortly after I posted this, The Playlist also reported the same story. It’s not officially confirmed, but close enough for all of us gossip-hungry fans, right?
