Sacha Baron Cohen best known for his comic characters Ali G (a junglist-hip hop gangsta wannabe from suburban Staines), Borat (a Kazakh reporter) becomes now Bruno (a flamboyantly gay Austrian fashion reporter). 

The crew had permission from the Witchita airport to film a scene on March 18 based on a “European man” visiting America. But security workers became alerted when they began dancing in tight short shorts, kissing and fighting in the lobby.

Some time after, Cohen’s film crew also reportedly stirred up chaos at a Kansas church by entering as an assumed European documentary crew but then attempted to become part of a parish play.

According to a recent interview in Rolling Stone, "Baron Cohen says the figure is inaccurate; the deal is just to see if it's possible to develop the movie, and he's still not sure whether the film will be scripted or reality-based or whether it will feature Bruno or a different character," casting doubt on the possibility of a Bruno movie.
Mike Walker of the National Enquirer reported the following on the Howard Stern Show on Thursday: Ben Affleck called comedian friend Sarah Silverman after completing a sit-down interview with a person he was told was a “very famous openly gay fashion journalist”. Ben called the interview “the weirdest sit-down he has ever had with a reporter” explaining that the interviewer’s (wholm he refered to as an “idiot”) first question was “How Do You Like Niggers?” After a stunned silence, Silverman asked Affleck “Was this guy’s name Bruno?” Then and only then did Affleck actually realize that the whole thing was a gag. There is no doubt that this interview will be featured in the final cut, which is currently scheduled to hit theaters in October 2008.
