It’s one thing to show up in a cameo role in a film, say a few lines, wink at the audience and then leave. It’s another to show up and give a speech lengthy enough to be a State Of The Union.Okay, maybe we’re exaggerating, but revealed he will be talking — a lot — when he pops up in next year’s “ ” redo. Caught up with the actor at an after-party for the off-Broadway play “ Knickerbocker” and he said about his upcoming role, “I’ve got to leave the party.
Learn the lines. It’s a five-page monologue Yeah, it’s great. It’s really good.” He remained coy on who he’ll be playing exactly, so we’ll leave it to Philip K. Dick fans to tell us: any guesses on who this chatty character might be? But man, that’ll be one helluva piece to memorize.As for Hawke’s TV pilot “ Exit Strategy” directed by his “ Brooklyn’s Finest” and “ Training Day” director Antoine Fugua he doesn’t seem to be too optimistic about its chances. “I’d be surprised if anyone ever sees that show. I really don’t know about TV.
I have no idea. It’s all new to me. It’s a total mystery,” he said.
That’s kind of too bad as it sounded pretty promising. The pilot, written by David Guggenheim (“Safe House”), the show is described as a “high octane procedural” where five CIA experts are sent into the field to extract agents after a mission goes bad. Hawke plays the team leader and mastermind of the exit strategy. The procedural part comes in because each episode will take place in a different country with a different crisis each week. Have suggested it might be tweaked a bit and brought in as a mid-season replacement on Fox so we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
