George Bush and Colin Powell Arrested in Shreveport, Sort of…

Talk about getting into character...

Josh Brolin as George W. Bush

If you get a chance to read the script for Oliver Stone's W you will learn that George W. Bush is portrayed as a bit of a drinker in his younger years and it seems Josh Brolin may be getting a little too into his role as the sitting President as he was arrested for interfering with police while a buddy of his was being arrested for public intoxication. The report comes from KTBS:

Shreveport Police were called to Stray Cats Bar at 222 Travis in Downtown Shreveport just after 2 a.m. Saturday morning. After arriving at the night club police called for backup. Police say Eric Felland, 29, was arrested for resisting arrest and public intoxication. Six others were arrested for interfering with police including actor Josh Brolin, 40. Brolin is in town playing George W. Bush in the movie "W" directed by Oliver Stone. Jeffery Wright, 43, was also arrested. Wright is playing Colin Powell in the film.

Obviously there is no word on whether or not Brolin or Wright were intoxicated or to what extent if they were, but the coincidence is rather comical.

That's awesome! It kind of sucks, but it is really funny that this happened to them. That is a good way to get into character. Next, Richard Dreyfuss should shoot somebody in the face with a shotgun, just to know what its really like.
