Interpol bassist to star in movie?

Interpol bassist Carlos Dengler is set pursue a career in acting, according to reports.

Dengler is apparently playing a drug dealer in a forthcoming movie, which has already shot some scenes in Chicago.

The shoot has a working title of 'My Friends Told Me About You', and according to Pitchfork, Dengler is also producing.

This is just another aspect of Dengler’s movie-prowess. The star's resume also includes film scores for 'The Devil Wears Prada' and 'Ice Age 2’.
