Terry Gilliam Has Cast His Don QuixoteBy Josh Tyler: 2009-11-04 01:47:41
While making the rounds to promote The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, director Terry Gilliam hasn’t been shy about teasing his next project, Don Quixote. He has of course, tried this before. It went so badly that the movie was never finished and an entire documentary (and a rather good documentary, Lost in La Mancha is worth your time if you haven’t seen it) was made about what a failure the whole thing was. Now he seems determined to try again and what’s more, the project may be further along than we thought.
It seems Terry Gilliam’s do over on Don Quixote wasn’t just idle talk. In fact, he wants to start filming as soon as this coming April. He even told Collider that he’s already cast someone to play the titular Quixote. No, he doesn’t say who it is. I can tell you who it isn’t though. No way it’s venerable French actor Jean Rochefort who, back when Gilliam first tried to make this film in 2002, was cast as Quixote. Even back then Rochefort was so elderly, and his health so poor, that it seemed incredibly unlikely he’d make it through the entire shoot. Lucky for him, they didn’t get far before it imploded. Check out Collider’s full interview with Gilliam below, in which he talks about the man from La Mancha without, of course, revealing anything:
