Jared Leto isn’t a one trick pony. The dude is a Rock star, with his platinum selling band, 30 Seconds To Mars. He’s also crafting himself as one of the elite actors in Hollywood. Jared is an award winning actor, and has shown an amazing ability to transform himself into the characters he plays. Think ‘Dallas Buyers Club.’ Now, he’s onto perhaps his most revealing acting gig. It was reported yesterday that Jared purchased the rights to the the personal story of one Hugh Hefner. Yep, THAT Hugh Hefner, the Playboy creator, and legend.

Acclaimed director Brett Ratner says that Jared sought out the rights because he waned to “understand” Hugh, and his life. Interesting. Can you imagine the tryouts and calls for this movie? One thing is for sure, Jared will no doubt transform himself into Hugh Hefner. I. for one, am excited for that!
