The Gene Genie on the Big Screen???


Gene Hunt is one of the main characters in Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes, the British TV series that recently finished.

How legit is this article? Quote:

"GENE Hunt is set to become ever larger than life by starring in a Hollywood blockbuster. The tough detective from Ashes To Ashes, played by Philip Glenister, is being lined up for his own movie."

Is this just a rumor that started because Matthew Graham said he's not putting Gene Hunt in any more TV shows, but if Hollywood came knocking that would be a different matter? Gosh, the end of Ashes to Ashes was so epic, I can't imagine them trying to go even bigger than that. And would they try to Americanize it again? It would still have to be Philip Glenister in the role. We all saw what happened when Harvey Keitel tried to play Gene Hunt.
