Joe Hill has been discussing a potential movie of his hugely successful horror novel Heart-Shaped Box, saying he’d like to see Russell Crowe play the lead. The book revolves around rock star Judas Coyne, who becomes haunted by ghosts from his past when he buys a dead man’s suit, and Hill believes the Gladiator star would be perfect in the role. “I try not to say this person or that person should play the part, because until there is a movie, I want the reader to have the freedom to cast the movie in their own mind” he explained.
