Busy doing nothing

Fox Searchlight Pictures seem to have been attempting something approaching large-hearted generosity towards Kevin 'where's the rap career gone, Kevin' Federline, when asked about his rumoured role in Night Watch:

[W]hile a representative for movie house Fox Searchlight confirms Federline had auditioned for "a minor role", he says the 29-year-old didn't win the part because of "his availability and our shooting schedule". Referring directly to the reports, the spokesperson adds, "This is not true. Kevin Federline was not cast."

The generosity, of pretending it was just too difficult to find a day on which Kevin Federline could find time to make a film, didn't run so far as to pretend they actually wanted him to do so, you'll note.
