Damien is way too slim for Waters anyway.

whoops! maybe when it comes to major plot points we should use the spoiler tags Glo? I took the liberty of editing your post, hope that's ok

Spoiler

yes it is!

No problem Glofigs It is not something we'd considered before so you've prompted an important thing!

So guys....from now on in this topic, talking about the characters and the rough overview and tone of the book is fine, but perhaps plot details such as the above can be treated as spoilers. Especially as not everyone will have read the book (or choose not to) before the film comes out.

I just finished it this week. I have to say if D wasn't going to be in the movie I wouldn't have picked it up. Hated it. Not a single likable character.

Interesting, again Damien doesn't fit the character description for Dunn, who is described as a big guy, balding, broad Geordie.....

Agree Glofigs, it is hard to 'like' and even engage with anti heroes who are given zero redeeming features, but perhaps on screen the humour will come across and they will ramp up the charm levels!

Hastings is likeable in the sense that he is kind of a victim to Stelfox's nastiness and seems harmless enough.

Rosanna Arquette? That's quite a serious addition and may help its US release. Weird that Damien's part hasn't been updated though.

Maybe he is the cop that tries to make it

 DC Woodham? He is played by Edward Hogg, in cast list just posted

 

No.  He would have made a good cop (again!), the cop shows up a few times and Oh My God that last scene the cop is involved in... However, DC Woodham is being played by a guy named Edward Hogg.

 

domino, if memory serves, Barbara is

the producer they have dinner with that Stelfox insults.  Well he insults women in general, saying something about women treated differently in the music industry as they age is justified because basically women become old hags no one wants to fuck.  I'm not sure how much of that was in his head or said out loud... LOL 

Still no news which part Damien is going to play? I think we will only know when movie comes out :D Btw, when is this movie going to get released? Was there any date?

The first promo pic from Kill Your Friends has been released, and a promo will be screened today at Cannes film festival!

Very happy it is having its first outing at Cannes, a teaser screening already is a great sign.
