Sacha Baron Cohen Finds His Next Role
Posted on 22 July 2008 by brian
Fox Atomic has purchased a pitch from the Borat star, with an eye to star in it. In Accidentes, the comedic powerhouse will star as an ambulance-chasing personal injury lawyer.
Cohen will be of Latin descent in the film, who transforms from contingency attorney to hero of the working class when he helps an immigrant win a judgment against his wealthy employer after a landscaping mishap. He also becomes the enemy of L.A.’s power elite.
The comedy will be written by Peter Baynham, who with Baron Cohen and others shared an Oscar nom for scripting the 20th Century Fox comedy Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.
