The Internet And I Are Losing It Over Dev Patel Starring In A Biopic About Chippendales

    CAST DEV PATEL IN ALL THE THINGS!

    This year has been, pardon my French, a shitshow. But with every dark cloud comes a silver lining, and 2020's silver lining comes in the form of Mr. Dev Patel.

    This fine gentleman will star in a biopic about the Chippendales founder turned murderer, Somen "Steve" Banerjee.

    Dev Patel on the red carpet in a tux.

    Yes. THOSE Chippendales.

    Before we get TOO excited — remember, he was also a murderer — Banerjee himself wasn't a stripper, so not sure how much of, ahem, Dev Patel we're gonna see.

    Still, the Patel-Hive is over the moon with this news and flooded to Twitter to express their excitement!

    YOU HAVE MY ATTENTION https://t.co/QmquhxztyP

    finding out dev patel doesn't get to play a chippendale in the chippendale movie

    If Dev Patel murders me in his strip club, DO NOT PROSECUTE HIM because HE caught ME slipping. That is on ME https://t.co/2pN1QAXQiq

    Apologies in advance but the Dev Patel Chippendales movie is all I will be talking about for the foreseeable future

    I would spend $15 to watch Dev Pattel pick out wall colors for his bathroom. I’m sure as shit following him to an 80’s male strip club murder saga #chippendales https://t.co/Sk2ZVGajq4

    No news on the release date or other cast members, but you better believe I will be waiting with bated breath!
