Boris Johnson: Brad Pitt Would Have To Play Me In Boris: The Movie

Ever one for modesty, London Mayor Boris Johnson has said that there's only one man to play him when the sadly inevitable happens and Boris: The Movie hits theatres.

That's Brad Pitt, with the Hollywood hunk BoJo's choice to play him in any movie made about his life.

The Mayor was visiting Ealing Studios to announce a 750,000 investment in London's TV and film industry, a boon that it is optimistically hoped to create 200m of expenditure and create 1,000 jobs.

But as ever the main focus was on Boris' japery, as he'd earlier in the day been challenged to a game of table tennis by Pippa Middleton. Boris also has his eye on another career as an actor, having probably got the taste for thepianism when appearing on EastEnders.

"Would I be interested in being in a film? You betcha. But no one's curiously made me an offer. I think the movie industry is moving along without me at the moment," Johnson told The Telegraph.

It doesn't take Steven Spielberg to work out that Boris' controversial life featuring sackings, affairs, encounters with fraudsters and of course political success, would make a great movie.

But as to who should take on the lead for the role? Now that's tri! ckier, if he were a little older we'd have said Tom 'Draco Malfoy' Felton, but he's a little too young.

Ask the man himself however and the answer is clear, as he said: "Who would I have to play me? You mean, apart from Brad Pitt obviously."
