Kevin McKidd: Rome movie is almost there

Kevin McKidd has revealed that production on a movie version of Rome could begin next year. The actor, who is currently starring in Grey’s Anatomy, explained that he is ready to reprise his role of Lucius Vorenus for the film.

“There’s just no chance of doing it this hiatus, so the tentative plan is to try and get it done next summer, in between season seven and eight of Grey’s,” he told E! Online.

“Everybody in the cast whose character still lives – they’ve all verbally said, ‘Yes, we’re absolutely up to doing it’.”

He continued: “There’s still that intent. Part of the money is there – I think about 50% of the financing is there. We’re almost there.”
