Morgan Freeman wants to be the Devil.

The actor says he's fed up of playing good guys in his movies and wants to
immerse himself in a more sinister character.

Heh. I'd like to see that...

Freeman, who played God in 'Bruce Almighty', said: "I have a fantasy, to
tell you the truth, that I should play the Devil. If I could interest the
right people."

The star added his Satan would be "extraordinarily charming".
Freeman also admits he prefers playing bad guys to heroes.

The Oscar nominated actor said he realised he had a penchant for darker
roles after playing the villain opposite Bob Hoskins in 'Unleashed'.

He played a villian a while back in HARD RAIN. It didn't quite suit him,
though--his character seemed much too intelligent to have arranged such
a screwy heist in the first place--g!

He told Britain's Arts and Books Review magazine: "He confirmed exactly what
I was thinking.

"With bad guys you get to let it all out. All those dark places in your
psyche? You can let it 'em go."

He added: "When you play good guys, it's kind of boring. It's one note."

"I think I'm a sympathetic person though, even when I play a bad guy."

New or Used Car...

Someone should cast him and Chris Walken in a movie together. Freeman can
play the bad guy, Walken can play the good guy, and they both get their
wishes.
