Bill Murray Will "Rock the Kasbah"

Bill Murray will star in the comedy "Rock the Kasbah" says The Wrap.


The story follows Murray as a burned out music manager who goes to Afghanistan on the USO tour with his last remaining client. When he finds himself abandoned, penniless and without his passport, he discovers a young girl with an extraordinary voice, who stows away with him back to Kabul to compete on the popular television show, the Afghan Star.

Barry Levinson will call action using a script from Mitch Glazer, who also wrote Murray's 1988 underrated holiday comedy Scrooged and the 1998 adaptation of Great Expectations.

Bill Block, Steve Bing and Jacob Pechenik will produce the film.

The project will be shopped around at the Toronto International Film Festival to international distributors.
