No, not Dr. Conrad Murray – I’m talking about the orignial Dr. Death, Jack Kevorkian! Actually, I guess the original Dr. Death would be Josef Mengele. I would be interested in seeing Al Pacino play any of these people, and very, very interested in seeing him play all three at once, in some sort of CGI-driven character comedy,  like Eddie Murphy’s Nutty Professor. And I would be very, very, very interested in Dr. Deaths Vs. The Klumps. Because, oh man, you know the Dr. Deaths would just slaughter.

From IMDB:

Al Pacino is to play euthanasia activist Dr. Jack Kevorkian in a star-studded new TV movie.

The movie star will team up with Susan Sarandon, John Goodman and Danny Huston in Barry Levinson’s You Don’t Know Jack.

Kevorkian was dubbed Dr. Death when he stunned the world with his ‘Mercy Machine’ in the early 1990s, and performed his first assisted suicide.

Judging from our recent Starzlife snaps of the guy, he won’t be spending too much time in the make-up chair.
