British actor Sacha Baron Cohen is going to play Saddam Hussein in a new film which is a adaptation of a book by Saddam Hussein. The Ali-G star will co-write and star in The Dictator, a romance novel the CIA believes was written by unknown writers under the influence of former Iraqi dictator Saddam and published under his name. Film-makers say it tells the "heroic story of a dictator who risked his life to ensure that democracy would never come to the country he so lovingly oppressed". The comedy is due to be released worldwide on May 11, 2012 by Paramount Pictures. Rumours have previously circulated that Baron Cohen was to star as a foreign dictator and a goat herder in his next film project.
I believe that Sacha Cohen is a great actor who is not afraid to find new things in acting. He is an innovator and a pioneer in the film and tv industry. Ali G and Borat were great episodes and movies. I was not so found of Bruno. Let’s hope that his new movie will be a success like Ali G once was.
