I'm really still trying to take this one in and try and understand if either it's a real story, or another dead end lead from Ananova, however they are claiming that the singer, composer and once off actor Robbie Williams is looking likely to star in a remake of Saturday Night Fever taking over the role that made John Travolta famous.

The Bee Gees are said to be making a £20 million modern version of the hit 70's film and have ear-marked Robbie for the part of Tony Manero, originally played by John Travolta.

A friend of the Gibb brothers said: " Robbie is the ideal candidate to play Tony - he can sing, dance, is a good-looking lad and has loads of charisma."

"A friend" of the Gibb brothers. Mmmm, it does sound like a tall tale, but I wonder how far from the truth it could be? What do you think, from his one appearance in De-Lovely, do you think he's got what it takes to star in this and put on the dancing shoes of Travolta?

Not only that, but what about the storyline? Are they going to update it to modern day or transport us back to the 70's? Which would you want to see, and could they possibly make a modern day version work?
