Interesting move! Directors turning actors can be hit or miss. Hope he has the screen presence to carry a film. Tourist Family was entertaining though!

While I appreciate the talent, I hope this doesn't become another case of directors casting themselves just because they can. The story should be the hero, not the director's acting ambitions.
