John Waters Serves Kids a Christmas Fruitcake
Renaissance man John
Waters - filmmaker, actor, TV host, author, artist, pop-culture
curator, and "Pope of Trash" are just some of his titles - may be most
infamous for making Divine eat dog feces back in the day, but not
everything he does is NC-17.
After all, he gave us the PG-rated Hairspray, which went on to
spawn a stage (and soon a movie) musical version.
But
is the world ready for a John Waters Christmas movie for kids?
The man behind Female Trouble and A Dirty Shame has
announced that his next project will be Fruitcake, a holiday movie
for all ages.
He's being tight-lipped about casting but plans to start shooting this
fall for a 2008 holiday release.
Please, please, please - Johnny Knoxville as Santa Claus!
