It seems like Alex Pettyfer will be shacking up at DreamWorks for a while. Not only is he set to star in (the hopefully franchise worthy) I Am Number Four, but the production company has plans to adapt the book Shunt: The Story Of James Hunt for the big screen with Pettyfer set to star. Shunt follows the true story of Hunt, a British formula one driver who won the world championship in 1976. Possibly most important is the fact that he became a sensational celebrity as a result of his success – the first playboy race car driver. DreamWorks is banking on this rising star (but let’s see how well he does in Beastly first).
Judging from the picture on the left, if he were to appear on screen for two hours shirtless and just pointed at the screen it would be better.
