HOLY SWITCHEROO!
Jon Voigt
Citing personal reasons,
Ian Holm (
The Lord of the Rings,
Chariots of Fire) has asked to be released from his commitment to play the lead in CBS' forthcoming
John Paul II miniseries; in his stead,
Jon Voigt (
Anaconda,
Deliverance) will portray the elder pontiff,
Variety reports.
Cary Elwes still will play the younger
Karol Wojtyla, which again I say is great, because brother absolutely
killed in
The Princess Bride.
