Currently, four movie companies are bidding to take Sacha Baron Cohen's new movie under their wings, seeing as Bruno made Universal Pictures a tidy little fortune. The latest creation from Cohan is currently untitled but, to ensure that they bag the film, Paramount Pictures thought that the unusual gift of a goat would get the funny man to sign on the dotted line. It's better then a hamper of chocolate I suppose.
However, as one goat trotted into Sacha's home in Beverly Hills sporting a Paramount Pictures T-shirt, a second was delivered to his agents office where it dropped a few berries on the third floor. According to The Sun, as source said; "It squatted down in the hall in front of where everyone was working. It was disgusting. One of the guys looking after the goat tried to clean it up but the awful smell stuck around for hours."
Rumours are swirling that the studio has also offered to pay Sacha £13 million up front and are prepared to give the star 20 percent of the films takings. In relation to the storyline, which is still under wraps, the goat gift may be a clue. It's reported that the comedian will be acting out two roles, one as a goat herd and the second role will be that of a foreign dictator who gets lost in the US, which is sure to be controversial. Let's hope there's no more bleaching of the arschenhaller *crosses fingers*
