London, Dec 16 (ANI): Rocker Pete Doherty is set to play the role of a boozy French poet in an upcoming movie.
The Libertines frontman is set to start shooting the film in Paris post Christmas.
“I don’t know if I’m a good actor, but they say I am,” the Daily Star quoted the 31-year-old as saying.
Fans fear the featuring Doherty could be a gamble for producers, as the drug addict is famous for missing gigs.
However, writer Noemie Lecoq said, “In France he’s always drawn crowds.” (ANI)
