Paris Hilton Chosen to Star in Rock Opera
Posted on August 25, 2007
The perennial party princess has been picked to star in the rock opera Repo! A Genetic Opera which starts filming in September in Canada. Darren Lynn Bousman, director of the three Saw films, including the fourth sequel, which opens Oct. 26, has spent several years working on the movie version of an opera hatched with screenwriter-composers Darren Smith and Terrance Zdunich.
Hilton will sing in the futuristic thriller framed around musical numbers that range from opera to rock. The setting is 2056, when a plague nearly destroys the human race and survival is dependent upon being able to finance a pricey organ transplant. Hilton plays a daughter of the organ transplant magnate played by Paul Sorvino who is the villain of the film.
Director Bousman says, “This movie has become my life. I have auditioned at least 30 actresses for this role — Paris came in and owned it. She is this role.”
