Reilly Begs for 'Guys and Dolls' Role
10 December 2004 (WENN)
Hollywood star John C. Reilly has shamelessly urged Miramax movie-makers to recruit him for their big screen version of Guys and Dolls. The character actor, who starred in the studio's Chicago and Gangs of New York, spent his early career on the stage in musicals like Jesus Christ Superstar, Fiddler on the Roof and Brigadoon - and he's eager to show off the skills required for these shows once again. He says, "Guys and Dolls - that's my favorite. I know Miramax are supposed to be doing the movie of it and boy I want to be in on that, because I just love it."
