John Malkovich is stepping into the shoes of the legendary film director Stanley Kubrick...well, sort of. The actor will portray a real-life conman who convinced dozens of starstruck individuals that he was the filmmaker, thus managing to secure his way into the hippest London nightclubs, restaurants and venues during the making of EYES WIDE SHUT.

The comedic feature, titled COLOR ME KUBRICK, will be written by Kubrick's personal assistant Anthony Frewin and directed by Brian Cook, a member of the EYES WIDE SHUT crew. Financing is being assembled at present, with part of the film's budget supplied by Studio Hamburg.
