Danny's Darlings

.

Way way way back in March of 2009 - that's, like, over two years ago and shit - it was announced that Chris Evans would be playing Jack Kerouac in a movie called Kill Your Darlings, about some sordid gay history involving a friend of Kerouac's and Allen Ginsberg's named Lucien Carr, who apparently murdered his boyfriend. Carr was going to be played by Ben Whishaw, and Ginsberg was going to be played by Jesse Eisenberg. Since then we've already seen James Franco tackle Ginsberg once with Howl, and we're not sure if that scared Eisenberg away or if it's just taken too much time developing, but Eisenberg's gone and Twitch is saying that Harry Potter himself Daniel Radcliffe is going to be playing Allen Ginsberg in the movie. They don't know if Evans or Whishaw are still attached either. But I think Dan is pretty good casting for Ginsberg, don't you?
