Beyonce’s Lovin’ ‘Pink Panther’ Role
That infamous bumbling French detective is on his way back, as Steve Martin takes possession of the brand new “Pink Panther.” Martin helped “Extra” unveil the new Inspector Clouseau for the first time for our behind-the-scenes sneak peek at the upcoming comedy.
“It’s very good I think,” said Martin in Clouseau-voice, before getting serious to reveal that, “We’re not doing the same gags; we’re doing different gags and a new story.”
Martin told us that apart from his accent, almost everything about this “Pink Panther” is new. And the famed comic added that he’s trying to put his own signature on the character, which the late Peter Sellers immortalized.
“I’m sort of doing it my own way,” Martin told us. “There are subtle changes. We’re not just updating the old movies.”
In the film, Inspector Clouseau is trying to solve the murder of a world famous soccer coach. And the beautiful Beyonc Knowles is among the suspects. Knowles revealed that she plays a pop star in the film, and loves every minute of it.
“It’s going to be fun because I get to perform and sing in the movie and I always have fun doing that,” she told us.
The new “Pink Panther” is expected to hit the big screen next year.
