Trio to rule 'Empire' (from Variety)
"Gary Oldman, Malin Akerman and Milo Ventimiglia will star in indie gangster project "Criminal Empire for Dummys," set to shoot starting in late March in New Orleans.... Story centers on a charismatic young man -- portrayed by Ventimiglia -- who relates the do's and don'ts of running a criminal empire through a flashback to his own rise from a tragic childhood and life in the ghetto to eventual position as a multinational drug and criminal kingpin."
I know the spelling of "dummys" is meant ironically, so I'm trying to get over it. Really, I am. Did I mention this movie has Gary Oldman in it? I did? Okay. And Milo Ventimiglia! Yay! I loved him as Jess on "Gilmore Girls." I could never force myself to watch "Heroes," but I heard he was good in that show as well.
How much do you want to bet that Oldman's character is a mob boss?
