Pardon my French... Hot Damn! Richard is closer to making his dream a reality by portraying Richard III! Coming from RichardArmitage Net on Twitter from the HeraldScotland, Phillipa Langley, who is the secretary of the Scottish branch of the Richard III Society has persuaded our favorite dwarf king to portray the real life king for which he was named, Richard III.
Not only has ms. Langley persuaded our Richard to act in the movie, but she has also written a sympathetic screenplay of Richard III that shines a more favorable light upon him. Most of what has been portrayed as Richard III as basically the Hunchback of England is pretty much Tudor propaganda to give them a good reason to have killed Richard III. Now all that is needed is of course financial backing and I guess from the money that can be gathered will determine if the Richard III project will be made for the big screen or a mini-series. Either way I just hope it will make it to the States and that a vast majority will be able to see it. If it's for television, Are you listening PBS?
By the way, there is going to be a press conference Monday to announce the results of the genetic testing of the skeleton found in the car park in Leicester that is believed to be Richard III.
