Bill Murray replaces Toby Kebbell as a Murderous Gangster in PASSION PLAY

Movie Bill Murray Casting about 14 years agoby Joey Paur

Production Weekly reports that one of our favorite actors, Bill Murray has replaced British actor Toby Kebbell (Rocknrolla) as a murderous mobster in the film Passion Play. This film has a fun little story and Murray should be great in this role. I'd love to see Murray as a murderous mobster!

The story is set in Los Angels in the 1950s where an angel under the thumb of a ruthless gangster (Murray) is saved by a trumpet player (Mickey Rourke) down on his luck.

Murray is definitely older that Kebbell, but he's also a much better actor so I have no complaints. He joins Megan Fox, Mickey Rourke, Kelly Lynch, Lora Cunningham, Mike Miller and Chuck Liddell.

The film is currently shooting in New Mexico.
