"Open casting is about to begin for six fellas to play the young Pythons in a movie version of Graham Chapman's memoirs, Gin and Tonic. Since it's an open call, and the producers are turning it into a publicity stunt by giving out a prize for the most outlandish costume, expect lots of cries of "It's just a flesh wound!" and plenty of funny walking.

"We wanted to cast as wide a net as possible for the Pythons," says David Eric Brenner, president of Hippofilms, who is producing the movie. "Our goal isn't just to find six look-alikes, but to discover six incredibly talented performers who embody that Pythonic brilliance and lunacy."

The first open audition is in California on March 20th, then they will move to New York, London and, believe it or not, Japan.
