a sitcom , movie and a book

I hear rumors that there is a book coming out and possibly a movie on STU UNGAR.....I would love to know any more info on this subject if you can help out I would be greatly appreciated.


#2 I heard there is a series coming out I think this Fall or Next fall, about a Poker Player which is airing on Channel FX......


any info on these two things would be greatly appreciated.

Nolan Dalla is working on a book about Unger; I believe the tenative title is "Stuey". Dalla posted an excerp on this site several months ago; you may want to check the archives. I believe it was Oct/Nov. It was interesting, and I'd certainly be willing to read the book when it is released; I'd be interested to know if anyone has an update on it's progress.

As far as the series goes, there was a (very) short blurb in the L.A. Times this week that said that the actor (don't remember his name) who played Carrie's boyfriend Aidan on Sex And The City has been cast as the lead in a new series. The working title of the series is "Lucky," and it's about a poker player in Las Vegas. It's scheduled to air on FX starting in 2003.
