Bill Pullman playing Philip K Dick?
He’s close to signing on to a film about the authꦰor
Back in 2005 at that year’s San Diego Comic-💖Con, the producers of A Scanner Darkly wheeled out a Philip K Dick android 🅺to help promote the film (he didn’t really help). But now with the droid’s head and other body parts missing, we must turn to a human replacement to play the author of Scanner in a new film.
Bill Pullman is that human and he’s in negotiations to play Dick in a new indie flick called Panasonic. It’s being directed by musician Matthew Wilder, who’s best known for the 1983 song Break My Stride. Having seen his musical stardom asp🦹irations dashed by the fickle hand of fate, he’s now better knಞown as a producer and songwriter. But he’s been working on Panasonic, which will feature a reality-blurring journey into the mind of Dick, a man known for drug-fuelled dimensional shifts. Sounds commercial to us!
Pullman himself is also busy – he&rsqu✨o;s staging a play called Expedition 6, which chronicles the real-life drama that saw three astronauts stranded aboard the International Space Station in 2003.
