Jamesyboi Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Famous composers Steven Spielberg was discussing his new project - an action docudrama about famous composers starring top movie stars. Sylvester Stallone, Steven Segal, Bruce Willis, and Arnold Schwarzenegger were all present at the initial casting sessions and Spielberg strongly desired the box office 'oomph' of these action superstars. So much so that he was prepared to allow them to select whichever composers they would portray, as long as they were very famous. "Well," started Stallone, "I've always admired Mozart. I would love to play him." "Chopin has always been my favourite, and my image would improve ten-fold if people saw me playing the piano" said Willis. "I'll play him." "I've always been partial to Strauss and his waltzes," said Segal. "I'd like to play him." Spielberg was very pleased with these choices. "Sounds splendid," he said, "I'm very pleased with these choices" Then looking at Schwarzenegger, he asked, "So who do you want to be Arnold?" And Arnold says ... "I'll be Bach" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
