Thierry Henry to Star in a Spike Lee Flick

[bergkamp10]

Last night I read that Thierry Henry is to star in an upcoming Spike Lee movie alongside Denzel Washington and Jodie Foster. Initially, I dismissed it thinking that it was just one of many rumours. However, serveral other sites have published this story, as well. The film is titled "The Inside Man." Take it for what you will.

It's on IMDb as just "Inside Man":

I had read about it on Wednesday or Thursday I think. It was because he invited Spike to come watch a game from his excecutive box at Highbury.

Thats cool. Nice to see some European stars getting some recognition like that.

I saw Spike Lee give an interview today on ESPN2 on some weird show about shoes. At any rate, he gave the interview from his NYC office and was wearing a long sleeve yellow Arsenal kit.

Also heard Dan Patrick saw he was going to the Arsenal/ManU game this season.

Gunners taking a foothold in America. I know that they will never tour hear, but the fast pace passing gaming Arsenal play would really be popular if only more Americans could see them.

Hey I tried. It wasn't my fault they asked me to leave the press box.

If they want coverage in the U.S. they need to respect the American press.

but andy, who thinks they want coverage in the states?
this press box story is brought up way too much, IMO.

Man, phishy, if I had a reasonably funny story like that I would keep retelling it in the chance that someone new heard it. In any case, it puts a smile on my face remembering it.

At least I got a really nice Lokomotiv scarf for my collection. :D

Is this the same spike that was sporting a Juventus shirt? Good exposure for Henry and $$$ for Spike

[MtP07]

A couple of months ago Spike had an interview in playboy. In the pictures he was wearing a juventus shirt...thought it was pretty interesting that he was a soccer fan and a juve supporter.

[Its only Ray Parlour]

Dunno why he was in a Juve shirt but he's been a known Arsenal "fan" for a number of years.
