Lights, camera ... Bono. The Million Dollar Hotel, the Wim Wenders-
directed/Mel Gibson-starring film co-written and co-produced by U2's
renaissance frontman, is scheduled to begin shooting Feb. 2 in Los Angeles,

Wenders and writer Nicholas Klein, the futuristic film will feature Gibson
playing a bald detective investigating the murder of a billionaire's son at a
flop house. Bono himself is slated for a role alongside actress/model/singer
Milla Jovovich and Jeremy Davies. Bono is also credited for the music and
screenplay, confirming speculation last October that U2 would contribute to
the soundtrack. Stay tuned for further details as they develop . . .

rocker Mick Hucknall of Simply Red . . .
