Oh 'Dali' It's Cillian and Pacino
The painter's life comes to the big screen
Al Pacino had already signed on to portray painter Salvador Dali in Dali & I: The Surreal Story for director Andrew Niccol and he is now joined by Cillian Murphy for the Room 9 Entertainment production.
The movie, which will span the 1960s-80s, follows the time in Dali's life when most of his great work was behind him and he became more flamboyant. Dali (Pacino) also developed a mentor-protege relationship with a young art dealer named Stan Lauryssens, who will be played by Murphy. The part of Gala, Dali's wife, has yet to be cast.
Production is scheduled to begin shooting in early 2008 on location in Spain and New York.
