At a recent junket for “Chapter 27,” lead actor Jared Leto was asked by MTV what he thought of the “Fight Club” musical idea proposed by director David Fincher and he pretty much laughs the idea off. “I think that’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard in my life,” the “Fight Club” star said in insouciant rock-star disbelief mode. “Could you imagine?”
“I’m gonna bite my tongue,” he said attempting not offend anyone, namely Fincher. “You never know. It smells like disaster but it could be genius. I have no idea.” Hey, we agree with Jared Leto for once. This could be a first!
But dudes, you would have had him at Trent Reznor had you told him that Nine Inch Nails could be involved. He is a rocker after all.
Some idiots on a morning radio show calle the Morning Sludge recently interviewed Edward Norton and asked him about the “Fight Club” musical idea and before he could respond with anything substantial they played him a pretty unfunny and stupid fake spoof they concocted which made him chuckle. He actually asked them to email it to him as well. It’s not very funny though.
