The Big Fish already wrapped filming in Alabama, USA.. if Mr Lee had visited there we probably would have heard of it

read here

http://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/specia...tylefish26w.htm

But... "The cast and much of the crew will reunite Monday to shoot for several days in Paris, the only location outside of Alabama where the film will be shot. "

If Mr Lee would indeed be in the film, thats where he would probably film his stuff.. I know Tim Burton loves Lee so surely he would want him to be in his film if there is a part for him to play... lets hope so

I was the one who brought this rumor to the attention of Stimpy. I heard it from somewhere and from someone. I have NO idea if it is true or not, but it made perfect sence because Mr. Burton DOES admire old time horror actors such as Mr. Lee.

Here is the Plot and Cast from IMDB:

Summary:
The story revolves around a dying father and his son, who is trying to learn more about his dad by piecing together the stories he has gathered over the years. The son winds up re-creating his father's elusive life in a series of legends and myths inspired by the few facts he knows. Through these tales, the son begins to understand his father's great feats and his great failings.


Directed by Tim Burton

Starring:

Ewan McGregor
Albert Finney
Billy Crudup
Jessica Lange
Alison Lohman
Helena Bonham Carter
Steve Buscemi
Danny DeVito
Robert Guillaume
Missi Pyle
Glenn Shadix

and maybe, if rumors are true, the great Christopher Lee!!!

Did I hear that Tim Burton was doing the remake of Willy Wonka???

Maybe Mr. Lee could do a wonderful Slugworth/Mr. Wilkinson??

YES!!!! In fact I suggested Mr. Lee for Slugworth on IMDB!!!!!!! He would be perfect in that role!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can just picture it:

"Hello my dear boy. I am Arthur Slugworth from Slugworth sweets."

That would be fun, I like that film, and yes Slugworth would be the perfect part for Mr. Lee.

Here is how I'd cast it, its a bit expensive but it works:

Wonka - Martin Short
Grandpa - Martin Landau
Charlie - New Face
Augustous -Kyle Sullivan
Violet - Daveigh Chase
Mike - Spencer Treat Clark
Veruca - Emma Watson
Candy Shop owner- Tim Curry
Slugworth- Christopher Lee (of course!!)
Charlie's Mom-Elizabeth Perkins
Veruca's Dad- Glenn Shadix or Richard Griffiths
Augustou's Mom- Kathy Kinney
Violet's Dad- Tommy Lee Jones
Mike's Mom- Kathy Najimy
The Tinker- Gene Wilder

That's some cast you got there.

No one picked for Charlie?

May be Mr. Lee could have a singing part, what with that lovely voice of his.
