Chris Tucker Loves the Rat
He also likes cheese...
Many people may make fun of Brett Ratner and his movies, but he certainly has something that appeals to Chris Tucker considering he seems to be the only director that can get the man to make a movie. After recently collaborating on Rush Hour 3 the duo are set to partner up once more for a film adaptation of the book "Mr. S: My Life With Frank Sinatra."
New Line Cinema will be distributing the pic, which is said to offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the world of Sinatra and the Rat Pack. George Jacobs and William Stadiem wrote the book, and Stadiem will be brought back to pen the screenplay. The story is said to weave in celebrity anecdotes involving Marilyn Monroe, Peter Lawford, the Kennedys, Ava Gardner, Humphrey Bogart, Mia Farrow, Elvis Presley, Swifty Lazar and Marlene Dietrich, among others.
"It's like a love story between two very unlikely people," Stadiem told Variety. "Brett is a Rat Pack obsessive, and so it's fun to work with someone so passionate about the period. I think he's channeling Frank sometimes."
