Dennis Hopper hoping to boot Kelsey Grammer out of office

By Matt Holmes /

Swing Vote, the "populist comedy movie" that Kevin Costner is starring and producing for Tig. Productions begins shooting in two weeks time. Joshua Michael Stern helms what will be his biggest picture to date. The flick revolves around Costner as a working-class single dad who becomes the centre of the world's attention when somehow the presidential election falls down to his vote. Running for election are Dennis Hopper as the Democratic candidate with Nathan Lane in his corner as his campaign manager. Running opposite is Kelsey Grammer as the current President of the United States with Stanley Tucci is in his corner. We have two great actors who know about playing camp as the managers to the presidential candidates. Genius! George Lopez has also been cast as a local TV station manager who has to fight off being manipulated by both teams of offices'. Movie sounds like so much fun and what a great cast... who have all given some great comedic performances in their time. source - variety
