Michael Douglas will be showing off his piano skills at a very private function ahead of his starring role as the late Liberace.
The film's director Steven Soderbergh has invited the movie veteran to show him and a few select guests how his music lessons are coming along.
Soderbergh says, "Michael decided to debut his Liberace in a little concert venue for me... He's studying piano like a maniac".
And the moviemaker admits the idea of playing the flamboyant pianist issomething Douglas has been keen to do for over a decade.
Soderbergh tells The Hollywood Reporter, "Michael told me all the way back when we were shooting Traffic in 2000 that he'd like to give Liberacea go".
