Ben Stiller has revealed that a Less Grossman movie is in the pipeline and a script is currently being written.
Tom Cruise stole the show when he took on the character in hit comedy movie Tropic Thunder, which also starred Stiller, and while a movie is on the cards the actor admits that they are still negotiating who will play who.
Speaking to MTV the actor said: "Les Grossman is notoriously difficult to negotiate with, so we're right now negotiating with him because he wants to play himself in the film.
"And he's kind of a bully, and he's very argumentative, and he's a little bit abusive.
"I want to try to get Tom Cruise to play him. So if I can get Tom Cruise, who's interested to play him, if Les will agree not to play himself, then it looks like it could be coming together.
"A script is being written now."
Away from this project and Stiller is back on the big screen this winter with his new movie Little Fockers, the third film in the franchise, which reunites him with Robert De Niro.
The actor has also lent his voice to Megamind as well as having a string of projects in the pipeline.
He is all set to appear in Help Me Spread Goodness, which he will also direct, Tower Heist, which also stars Matthew Broderick and Eddie Murphy and Shawn Levy's The Hardy Men.
