SHORT ACTORS NEEDED FOR HERVE VILLECHAIZE BIO-PIC
LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) Producers of an upcoming film about Fantasy Island star Herve Villechaize say theyre having a hard time finding a short actor to fill the role. A 4-foot-tall Herve-lookalike is needed for My Dinner With Herve, an upcoming short based on the life of the man famous for saying De plane, de plane. Casting director Monica Mikkelsen admits shes getting very little response from actors interested in playing him because its a challenging role for any actor dwarf or not. Mikkelsen says Mini-me actor Verne Troyer is too short for the role, but she is considering hiring 19-year-old Passions actor Josh Ryan Evans to play a young Villechaize.
