YES. YES. YES. YES. YES!
Oct. 25th, 2007 03:14 pmFall Out Boy frontman Patrick Stump has found himself wrapped up in a murder/kidnapping during a New York blackout. Also, his name isn't "Patrick Stump," it's "Marty Dressler," and he's not the silver-throated lead singer of a multiplatinum rock act, but rather a lowly cubicle-monkey at a local energy company.
Sound like the plot of some rather bizarre bit of FOB fan fiction? Well, yes, but it's also the synopsis of an upcoming episode of NBC's long-running crime-drama "Law & Order" that features Stump as a suspect in a high-profile case.
"The episode is called 'Darkness,' and it involves a kidnapping and murder that takes place during a power outage," NBC spokeswoman Amber James told MTV News. "The wife and daughter of an energy exec are kidnapped, and the housekeeper is murdered, and it turns out Patrick's character works for the executive's company. He has two key scenes in the interrogation room and another scene where he's in the court room, being prosecuted. ... He's completely out of character. It has nothing to do with his band or him being a musician."
I've been saying this for YEARS, that he would make a fantastic actor. Like.. everything from the way he can do voices and imitate, to Bedussey, to the character acting in Dance Dance and 16 Candles... I dunno why they keep sticking Pete in things, Patrick has true, natural acting talent. Even the tiniest moment where he's playing another character, he's just... into it. Like his expressions and... gah. So cool. So, so cool.
