Morgan Freeman Is A 'Dirty Old Man'


 In  Comedy, Actors/Actresses

He is one of the most beloved and celebrated performers of the silver screen of our age... and now we can also call Morgan Freeman a dirty old man.

Reports are coming in that Morgan Freeman has signed on for the new Warner Bros. project "Dirty Old Men". The official description of the project reads:  "The comedy revolves around an aging playboy who finally meets the love of his life and his best friend and wingman for the past 40 years (Freeman) who does everything to break up the new couple. The tone is described as similar to Wedding Crashers and The 40-Year-Old Virgin."

There is no word yet on who the other lead would be, but there is speculation that it could end up being Jack Nicholson (who also appeared with Freeman in "The Bucket List").  There is also no director officially attached, but "Get Smart" director Peter Segal's name is being mentioned.

Question: What is your favorite Morgan Freeman role to date?

    Either God or the assassin leader in Wanted. "Parting your soup isn't a miracle it's a parlor trick!"

    I wasn't sure that Nicholson and Freeman would be good together, but after seeing "The Bucket List", I'm convinced. I would like to see another pairing.

    My favorite Freeman role is probably either God or Azeem in "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves"

    My hands-down-favorite Morgan Freeman role has got to be 'Red' in The Shawshank Redemption.

    Do any of you have Morgan Freeman as one of your top 5 actors in your profiles?

    I don't have my top 5 actors setup yet. Morgan Freeman is definitely on the list though. In my opinion, he's one of the greatest actors of all time.

    Shawshank Redemption, but Freeman is one of the 5 best actors I have ever seen, as well as being an excellent Narrator.

    For me its a toss-up between Driving Miss Daisy and Shawshank Redemption, in my opinion he is one of the greatest actors of our time

    I have not seen Morgan Freeman in a bad role yet. Some of my favorites are Glory, Shawshank Redemption, The Bucket List, Driving Miss Daisy. just to name a few. He is one of the greatest actors of our time.

    So many but The Contract is a brillant piece of work, he is so fabulous/cocky and of course Driving Miss Daisy...magnificent. He is perfect.
