What's Next for the "Borat" Boy?
by Scott Weinberg | October 26, 2006
Discuss Article
Those of you who are crossing your fingers for sequels to "Borat" or "Ali G Indahouse" might have to wait a little bit longer. There's new buzz afoot that master comedian Sacha Baron Cohen is preparing his next flick -- and it seems to involve an all-new character.

From IGN Movies & Variety: "Variety scoops that the new reality-based film will shoot next summer. The trade says that the flick will center around a "new character" Cohen is creating whose identity is a "closely guarded secret." Fans are speculating that it could be Cohen's other alter ego, Bruno, a gay Austrian fashion show presenter.

Cohen will co-write the film and produce with Borat producer Jay Roach.

Borat is now expected to release on approximately 800 screens on November 3rd. The studio will then gauge the flick's appeal and broaden its release appropriately as awareness builds."

I think that by shorting the public of 1200 screens will only make the film bigger because of the "censorship" type issues. I am going to see it as long as it is close enough to me.

the film has massive hype and it's not even out yet. if you need a reason to expand the theartheres by 1000, open up myspace.

It better expand, because usually movies like this (limited release movies) only make it to the Ritz, which doesn't even let minors into it's theater.
