Interesting movie title...Does anyone know what it's about?

I believe I do. Here is a small paragraph from one of his leading fansites http://benbarnesfan.com/ . It gives a small descripition of what the movie will be about.

"Killing Bono tells the story of the young Neil McCormick whose only ambition was to be a world dominating Rock legend. Although this quest was expertly planned he faced an unforeseen musical nemesis, a boy sitting on the other side of the classroom had plans of his own and that boy was Bono."

Hope that helps. That site actually has alot of knew pictures of him on the movie set of 'Killing Bono'

wanting to be a rock star, eh? that sounds like the perfect role for Ben!

Here are bits from a recent interview with Ben on Dorian Gray [not below], PC, VDT, Killing Bono, film critics, and fangirls. I'm not going to give the link to the story because it's NOT family-friendly. [Seriously. It's disgusting. ] But if you want the link, go to AslansCountry.com [page 2 of news stories].

Have you finished the new Narnia film?
Yes, a few weeks ago. It was great. The character’s more grown-up and, because I’ve had more film-making experience myself, I was able to bark orders at the sailors in the film with conviction. There’s more joy and fun in this one. It’s a better story than Prince Caspian, which maybe took itself a bit too seriously.

Prince Caspian won you a fan base of teenage girls. What’s that like?
I’m not consciously trying to do anything to change it. I just go for the best stories I can find and do the things I’d watch myself. It’s great to have people supporting me. It gives me the opportunity to do other stuff. It might draw an audience who are fans of the bigger films to things they might not otherwise watch.

So you’re not looking for a vampire project to keep in with the fans?
No, although I’ve been offered a few. I never have any clue what’s going to be next. I don’t know what I want to do until I read a script, which is one of my favourite parts of the job. I’m doing a comedy called Killing Bono now, in which I make a complete t** of myself. It’s time I made an a** of myself on screen.

One reviewer called you ‘Britain’s drippiest leading actor’. Does that bother you or do you take it in your stride?
No, it bothers me. The art of critical film appreciation has really gone down the toilet. You either have to champion a small film to be noticed or smash other films to pieces in the most cruel way you can think of. But if you don’t believe the really good things people say and don’t believe the really bad things, it all balances out. You make the film for the people who want to go to see it, not for people who are going to write about you.

If you were a kangaroo what would you keep in your pouch?
We shot Voyage Of The Dawn Treader in Australia, where we met loads of kangaroos. The joeys don’t look very comfortable. Their legs and arms stick out of the pouch and you can’t see their heads. I’d keep my iPod in there. I’m listening to loads of 1970s and 1980s punk stuff at the moment.

So ... what are your thoughts?

I think Ben did an amazing Job portraying Caspian! At first when I found out he was going to do it I was kinda upset cause Caspian is to have blonde hair and be younger then peter...but I was very happy with Ben's performance and love the character Caspian

Ben is awesome! what more can I say? he is the perfect Caspian! I am SO glad they found him for the role of Caspian!

What's this thing he's wearing on his back?

Its likely a scabbard for his sword. I know swords are carried two ways. One around the waist and one over the back.

I'm very excited to see how Ben will be in VDT. Do you think he'll still have an accent? In the pictures we've seen so far, he looks pretty fair, not as dark as he looked in PC, but i guess that maybe the pictures weren't clear enough.

What's this thing he's wearing on his back?

Another possibility besides the one Kat mentioned is that it's a crossbow.

^^ I think it's a crossbow too!

Does anyone know if they are going to pull back on Caspian's accent for this film? It was so thick in PC that it was distracting... and in my opinion just plain annoying.

His accent was AWFULL!!!! Please don't make him have the accent in VDT! Besides the accent, I think he is ok for the part of Caspian. I know it would have been better if he was blonde haired and had blue eyes like in the book, but he really does seem okay for the part. Plus his beard will help him seem kingish in VDT.

Well, the accents may have been a factor in Prince Caspian's not doing as well as expected. We will definitely know about Ben's accent or any of the others if there is any spoken dialog in the trailers.

The main evidence for me right now for no accents is that it is hard to imagine Gary Sweet (Lord/Captain Drinian) or most of the other newer characters with a PC-Telmarine accent.

I'm sure Ben Barnes and the others would be able to relax a bit if they could just go with their own or a more English type accent.

We may find out when the first trailer comes out...in May perhaps.

I do hope they keep the accent- like someone said a page or two back, it would be rather strange to hear King Caspian speaking like the Pevensies!

Something I've been wondering is: Will there be any sections of dialogue in which Capian uses the "Royal 'We'"? If my memory serves me, there were several such places in the book.
That could be interesting.
