Here's the story published by the Author John Gorman:
Shades of Luz has been out for a little over a month, but with quite a buzz building and comparisons already made to Brig's character and RZA from Wu-Tang Clan John has been thinking of the screen. Gorman won a screenplay competition in 2003. His "For the Love of Auntie" was the toast of the NY International Indie Film and Video Festival. Gorman also has some feature film acting credits under his belt, but wouldn't consider himself to play the part of Benny."I'm not going to pull a Stallone. God bless him, but I want to find somebody read-made and perfect for the part. I have a few ideas. Adam Lambert actually would be a good Benny. His singing style is all over the place like Benny's mind. You got to give props to a guy who can put out songs that bridge the gap between Depeche Mode and Queen."At the moment, Gorman is also considering Jason Swartzman. "I think he's great in 'Bored to Death'. He already has that writer sensibility since he is playing the young Jonathan Ames."John has already begun transposing the novel into script form. Next month he plans to push into the film scene. Maybe Penelope Cruz for the part of Luz. To follow John's latest doings on the Book Tour check out http://shadesofluz.blogspot.com
