More from MoviesCillian Murphy is stocking up on his paint brushes. He will star opposite Al Pacino in "Dali & I: The Surreal Story" for Room 9 Entertainment. Andrew Niccol is directing.
The movie, which will span the 1960s-'80s, follows the time in Salvador Dali's life when most of his great work was behind him and he became more flamboyant. Dali (Pacino) also developed a mentor-protege relationship with a young art dealer named Stan Lauryssens (Murphy). The part of Gala, Dali's wife, has yet to be cast.
"Dali" is scheduled to begin shooting in early 2008 in Spain and New York.
