American Psycho: The Musical

Everyone remember that sick and twisted yet hilarious film American Psycho?  Yes of course, how could you forget. 

American Psycho based on the novel by Bret Easton Ellis then made into the 2000 movie starring Christian Bale is now being turned into a stage musical!!!!

I think this is better than talks of a Fight Club musical!

According to a press release:

 ”The Johnson-Roessler Company, The Collective and XYZ Films have partnered to acquire, develop and produce the live stage version.”

The development team has just begun the selection process for creatives to pen the score and the book. No timeline has been set for what is envisioned as a large-scale musical.

No word yet who will take over Bale’s spot as Patrick Bateman, the wealthy New York investment banking executive whose sick, twisted, murderous alter ego exposes itself in the most delightful and imaginative ways.

This could be good!  That sex scene was hilarious!!

    i wonder how these two quotes from the movie would be sung;

    Patrick Bateman: There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable… I simply am not there.

    Patrick Bateman: I have all the characteristics of a human being: blood, flesh, skin, hair; but not a single, clear, identifiable emotion, except for greed and disgust. Something horrible is happening inside of me and I don’t know why. My nightly bloodlust has overflown into my days. I feel lethal, on the verge of frenzy. I think my mask of sanity is about to slip.
