In what is either the boldest or most ridiculous movie casting since Kristen Stewart became Joan Jett in the Runaways' movie, Harry Potter's Rupert Grint will don leopard skin and black leather as Dead Boys guitarist Cheetah Chrome in a film about the early days of legendary New York punk club CBGB's. Stranger still is the casting of Alan Rickman (Potter's Severus Snape) as the club's owner Hilly Krystal - though Rickman's proved he can pull off a decent American accent as witnessed in the first 'Die Hard' film. No word on who will play Joey Ramone, Blondie's Deborah Harry, or Dead Boys frontman Stiv Bators.
