COOGAN TO PLAY PORN KING RAYMOND
Funnyman STEVE COOGAN is set to reteam with his 24 HOUR PARTY PEOPLE director MICHAEL WINTERBOTTOM for a new biopic about porn king PAUL RAYMOND.
Coogan will reportedly play the London strip club tycoon in Raymond in Paul Raymond’s Wonderful World Of Erotica.
Winterbottom and the actor also teamed up to make quirky comedy A Cock And Bull Story.
The Raymond film is an adaptation of Paul Willet’s biography Members Only: The Life And Times Of Paul Raymond.
Raymond opened the U.K.’s first strip club, Raymond Revue Bar, in 1958. He also published the magazines Razzle, Mayfair and Men Only. He died in 2008.
