Status Quo to star in new film
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 17 April 2012
Status Quo are currently filming their debut movie, described as “a 90 minute action caper”, in Fiji. Really. Entitled ‘Bula Quo!’, it’s scheduled for release next year and will also feature twelve new songs by the band. Direction is being handled by Stuart St Paul, who mainly works as a stunt coordinator but does also have a number of feature films (and a few music videos) under his belt too.
Frontman Francis Rossi told Press Association: “The one thing Quo fans know is to expect the unexpected. Of course, Rick [Parfitt] and I have already acted in Coronation Street, one of the biggest TV shows on the planet, so this should be no trouble at all – according to management”.
Parfitt added: “Once I found out that we weren’t going to be shooting anywhere cold, I was all for it”.
