LOOG OLDHAM UPSET ABOUT ROLLING STONES FILM RUMOUR
LATEST: Former ROLLING STONES manager ANDREW LOOG OLDHAM has blasted reports MICK JAGGER’s son JAMES will play the rocker in the upcoming adaptation of his book STONED - because he has only just completed the screenplay.
The revered music mogul was astonished to read an article in British newspaper The Times, in which his former secretary Andy Melchoir revealed all about a film project he’s reportedly producing.
Oldham insists there is no Stoned movie, a director or a potential cast because he has only just started circulating his 120-page screenplay to his Hollywood contacts.
The former svengali says, "I’m very pleased with the screenplay and I’m amazingly over-sensitive about my legacy, heritage, relationship… with The Rolling Stones. The managerial spark doesn’t die.
"And one just gets p**sed off that someone could read this and think, ‘Oh my God, another one (film).’ "I’m really concerned by what Mick (Jagger), Keith (Richards) and Charlie (Watts) think." Loog Oldham insists he doesn’t have a cast in mind and he’d like to direct it himself.
He adds, "Let’s just say it’s not going to be the next Will Ferrell film…
My screenplay goes back to the time when people were getting it right - That’ll Be The Day and Quadrophenia. Those are my models."
