Simon Cowell of American Idol to produce Film


Music mogul and American idol supremo Simon Cowell is bringing TV show American Idol to the big screen, and is quoted as saying the upcoming movie will be "very, very realistic" like 1976 Oscar winner Rocky.

Using the same theme as Like American Idol itself, Cowell plans to cast the lead roles in the film - called Starstruck - through auditions across the U.S.

He tells American news show Extra, "It is called Starstruck. We're writing the script as we talk.

"It is about 10 contestants who enter a gigantic singing contest. It's like Rocky. It's about good versus evil, and it will be very, very realistic.

"I'm going to cast the lead parts through an open audition process across America. So if you get through the auditions, and you get a part in this movie, it's a huge, huge deal."
