Viggo Mortensen in Killshot

31-May-05 Elmore Leonard 'Takes Five' - Scroll to the bottom of this interview with Elmore Leonard for his comments on the strong female role of Carmen Colson in Killshot, and about John Madden's choices in casting the lead characters. "Quentin Tarantino has optioned my novel, Killshot, but John Madden, who directed Shakespeare in Love, will direct. Madden recognized right away the book is actually the main female character, Carmen Colson's, story, and so, unlike Soderbergh, he isn't going to change anything. Madden wants Diane Lane to play Carmen and Viggo Mortensen to play Wayne, her husband, and I think Mickey Rourke will play one of the bad guys. Justin Timberlake has read for the other bad guy."
