Ben Affleck and Matt Damon Are Producing a Chuck Blazer Movie
By Ty Duffy
Warner Bros purchased the film rights to Houses of Deceit, an upcoming book about American FIFA corruption whistle-blower Chuck Blazer by Ken Bensinger. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are among the producers.
A film about a man who looks like Santa Claus, mysteriously worked his way up from Westchester Soccer Dad to FIFA Exco member, wore a parrot in public, had a 6,000 square foot apartment for his cats, turned wire-wearing government informant and had an active blog? Guessing that has a reasonable shot to beat United Passions at the box office.
Not clear who will play Blazer, though it’s a shame Gerard Depardieu may be precluded due to his starring role in the FIFA movie.
