...No, not those kind of lines! *Cue canned laughter*
Pete Doherty has a fair few lines to learn after being offered the leading role in a new indie French film, depicting the life of 19th century writer Alfred de Musset (pictured bottom).
It's no real surprise that Pete was the number one candidate with the amount of similarities the two characters share. De Musset was an alcoholic, controversial poet and romantic that had a well publicised love affair with the first major female French novelist, Geroge Sand (also pictured bottom). Not a million miles away from Pete's notoriously controversial persona with his past of drink, drugs, and of course, his relationship with iconic supermodel Kate Moss (pictured below).
I wonder if there's comparison to Alfred's friendship with Frédéric Chopin to that of Pete's with Amy Winehouse...?

This could be a classic art-imitating-life role for Pete to break his way into film. The dandified singer said of the project;
"We start shooting in Paris on 27 December. The storyline centres around a love triangle so it's pretty intense and romantic. I don't know if I'm a good actor but they say I am."
The world will wait with baited breath to find out Pete...
