Andy Dick Talks On His Movie 'Danny Roane'

[Tuesday, September 6th, 2005]
Andy Dick talked to MTV about his tentatively titled directorial debut Danny Roane: First Time Director which has wrapped shooting and is in the final stages of post-production.

"The new movie I'm working on right now is very autobiographical. It's about a television actor who drinks too much and gets blackballed from the industry, and then he decides to break back in by directing his own movie," Dick said.

"It's going to be a dramatic, hard-core movie about drugs and alcohol," the actor continued. "He gets sober, and then falls off the wagon and goes crazy and turns his film into a musical."

Dick wrote, produced, directed and starred in the flick that will feature a slew of cameos from some of the funny man's comrades.

"Jack Black is in [it]. He plays God, and I think I'm going to shoot a scene with Alanis [Morissette] where I ask her to play God but she says, 'No, I've already done that in that Kevin Smith film [Dogma],' and I say, 'Oh, I'm sorry, I don't watch lesbian movies' — as if Kevin Smith only does lesbian movies," the comedian joked.
