Robin Williams to play Susan Boyle

He has done it in the past, but he wants to do it again. Robin Williams is all geared up to take the challenge of playing a woman's character for a second time. Only this time his character won't be fooling anyone ala Mrs. Doubtfire. He has been approached to play Susan Boyle in a movie about her life.

The 58-year-old comedian is excited about the role and is all praises for Susan Boyle who became a household name after singing “I Dreamed A Dream” on the Britain’s Got Talent earlier this year.

I’ve been asked if I want to play Susan in the movie. I think she’s incredible. That clip of her sing on Britain’s Got Talent was extraordinary. So inspiring. It was quite a shock when she began to sing. I saw some other clip of her singing Cry Me A River a few years ago. It was incredible. She’s got a really great voice.

And you are a gifted actor, Mrs. Doubtfire! Oops, I mean, Mr. Robin Williams. I hope this project converts into reality soon enough, because now I just can't wait to see Robin all dressed up as Susan Boyle.
