Driver eyes Bond & quits Flatley...

Hollywood actress Minnie Driver (Good Will Hunting and Circle of Friends) has dramatically pulled out of a role where she was to star opposite the world famous Irish dancer Michael Flatley in his upcoming film. Sources told ShowBizIreland.com that Driver will instead be looking at staring as Bond girl opposite Irish actor Pierce Brosnan in the next Bond movie.

An interesting fact is that Driver has already played a 'Bond girl' of sorts when she had a 20 second appearance as Robbie Coltrane's dancing girl in Golden Eye.

Flatley's film is based on his rags to riches life story will be called Lord of the Dance and will start shooting in Ireland in October and Driver was to play the rich girl that Flatley falls for.

Corr's singer Andrea who stared in both Evita and The Commitments is also being mentioned to star in the movie. The film will shoot in both Dublin and Cork where the superhoofer has a multi-million pound castle called CastleHyde.

The Irish leg of the movie will shoot for ten days and then move on to Chicago in the states where Flatley grew up for a further four weeks.

Sources are saying that the opening scenes in the movie are going to show Michael illustrating his love for dancing by dancing around the building sites...
