NAPOLEON Dynamite was one of our favourite movies of recent years . . . but what was Hollywood ever going to make of Napoleon Himself, AKA actor Jon Heder?
Would Heder (below) be destined to spend the rest of his life 'doing' Napoleon in dodgy nostalgia TV shows and bad sitcoms?
Guess again . . . 28-year-old Heder (a devout Mormon who won't touch projects featuring excess sex or violence) has six major movies in the works.
Last month he was in NYC, starring alongside Billy Bob Thornton in Old School director Todd Phillips' School For Scoundrels. Right now, he'd be filming ice-skating comedy Blades Of Glory with Will Ferrell . . . if he hadn't have broken his ankle preparing for the role.
Dang!
