Oldman to play dwarf in new film

Gary Oldman is set to star as a dwarf in his next movie.

The British actor, actress Kate Beckinsale, and Matthew McConaughey are in negotiations to star in a film called 'Tiptoes'.

'Tiptoes' tells the story of a young woman (Beckinsale) who discovers she is pregnant only to learn that her boyfriend (McConaughey) does not want her to have the baby as he fears it will be a dwarf like his twin brother Rolfe - played by Oldman.
