Brad Pitt Goes From Smith to Schmidt
Source: The Hollywood Reporter
Brad Pitt, most recently in the upcoming (Hitchcock remake) Mr. and Mrs. Smith with Angelina Jolie, is attached to star in Sony's Chad Schmidt, a comedy that blurs the line between reality and fantasy, says The Hollywood Reporter.
The film, written by Steve Conrad, centers on a talented young actor who moves to Los Angeles in the 1980s to pursue his dream of movie stardom. The twist is that he bears a peculiarly strong resemblance to another up-and-coming actor named Brad Pitt.
As the real Pitt achieves a dazzling level of fame, the fictional Schmidt, for all of his talent, becomes a comic uncastable joke. Ultimately, Schmidt must struggle to overcome the blow of abandoning his dreams and must make peace with the hard realities of life.

This sounds cool. Original even.
