Elijah Wood as Iggy Pop

 

Gay-midget Elijah Wood will play  Iggy Pop in a new biopic called "The Passenger." The film will chronicle Iggy's early days with The Stooges. The film is being budgeted at around $8 million and will shoot in the next 6-months for a 2008 release. Iggy has given his blessing, but won't take part in the film.

 

First we have Kiki Dunst as Debbie Harry and now this?! What's next Haylie Duff as Cyndi Lauper?! The cheerleader from Heroes as Madonna?! Marc Anthony as Karen Carpenter?!

 

Iggy's "blessing" was probably given after they handed him a huge check.
