Jared Leto to Play Hugh Hefner in Upcoming Biopic

Get your bunny ears ready because Jared Leto will soon become Hugh Hefner for an upcoming biopic.

Brett Ratner (known for directing the Rush Hour film series, Horrible Bosses, the Prison Break series) shared the news in the wake of the magazine publisher's death last week. "Jared is an old friend," Ratner said. "When he heard I got the rights to Hef's story, he told me, 'I want to play him. I want to understand him.' And I really believe Jared can do it. He's one of the great actors of today."
