Pierce Brosnan wants to star in a musical about Bruce Springsteen.
Irish-American actor Pierce Brosnan (L) arrives with wife Keely Shaye Smith (R) at the world film premiere of director Phyllida Lloyd's new film, 'Mamma Mia!', held at the Odeon Leicester Square in Central London, Britain, 30 June 2008. The film is a musical based on the legendary Swedish band, Abba's songs. The story follows a bride-to-be trying to track down her real father. Released July 10. EPA/DANIEL DEME
The 55-year-old actor - who debuts his vocal talents in the ABBA-inspired musical 'Mamma Mia!' - has got the taste for singing on screen, and is keen to take on the challenge of performing Springsteen's most famous tracks.
Pierce told BANG Showbiz: "I'd love to see a musical of Springsteen songs. His songs have got such imagery and poetry. I would like to star in it - I'd have a crack at it. I really enjoyed doing 'Mamma Mia!' so why not? In for a penny, in for a pound!"
Pierce's 'Mamma Mia!' co-star Colin Firth had another suggestion for a band-based musical.
He laughed: "My son suggested Radiohead, but I don't think that's particularly upbeat - it wouldn't have people dancing in the aisles!"
'Mamma Mia!' is released worldwide later this month.
