The man who became a celebrity after he was mistaken for an internet expert and interviewed on BBC News 24 could see a film made about his story.

The incident involving Guy Goma is the basis for a film being planned by Alison Rosenzweig, who produced the 2002 Nicolas Cage film Windtalkers.

Wow....:doh:

But wait, WE COULD ADD SNAKES, THEN IT WOULD BE AWESOME. :)

That'd be a pretty short film unless they showed it in REAL TIME(tm)

Ah, maybe they'll combine it with The Man Who Knew Too Little and have, say, terrorists storming the BBC to capture him, thinking he's the "other guy"... no? No, Ivan's right, it needs snakes ;)

I just watched this. Pretty funny. Not exactly movie material though. Incidents like these are used by comedy writers as gags for a more elaborate series of screw-ups, not as the focus of the story. But it could work if there's more to it.

"If they want to do a movie, I don't mind talking with them," Mr Goma, 38, told the Associated Press news agency.
"If they want to do a movie, I don't mind them throwing a lot of cash in my direction."
