Pierce Brosnan to meet a VANILLA GORILLA

by Matt Holmes

Before jetting off and transforming himself into the handsome playboy Thomas Crown for a second time, former Bond actor Pierce Brosnan will star in VANILLA GORILLA, an odd sounding comedy/drama setup as a directing vehicle for Terry Loane. The actor revealed the news on his official website. The movie is about an albino gorilla (aren't they extinct now?) who communicates to humans via sign language and is the center of an adventure between a father and daughter who try and resurrect their difficult relationship after the sudden loss of their mother/wife. Yes post-Bond you have to pay the bills somehow. I believe the last known white gorilla was Snowflake, who died a few years ago after spending two decades in a Barcelona zoo...

Crappy family comedies aside, it's not all doom and gloom for Brosnan. THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR 2 should be a great way for him to climb back that ladder, especially with Paul Verhoeven behind the helm... he's exactly the kind of director that franchise needed. Someone who could deliver something fun, sexy, exciting and high-octane. Brosnan says locations in Dubai, Berlin and Istanbul are being scouted right now with production to begin straight after this small movie which presumably will have to depend on CGI or the painting of a Gorilla? source - coming soon
