I was depressed when I read somewhere (raris-avis Yahoo hardboiled/noir Group?) that the physically-unsuited-for-the-role Paul Giamatti has been tapped to play "Hoke".
Unacceptable!
Giamatti is a fine actor but in what universe is he going to be acceptable to long-time fans of the Willeford series?


True facts department: on Giamatti's IMDB profile the following confirmation "In Development" appears:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0316079/?r...
with no additional info.
I thought Giamatti was unrecognizable in a guilty pleasure of an action flick IRONCLAD as evil King John and surprisingly good astride a horse waving a sword at vassals and scowling a lot.
