Senn Penn Hiding Out in NYC, Dressed as Robert Smith

by Andrew Dalton on September 1, 2010

Vulture Reports that the elusive Sean Penn is in New York and our first reaction was: he must be evading that Ike Turner he’s got on the board at Madrone. Why else would he be dressed as Robert Smith?

Turns out, copping The Cure frontman’s signature look is part of his character for an upcoming movie that shares a title with a Talking Heads song. Now would be a great time to bring out your best Spicoli-gone-emo jokes.

Oh and while we’re at it, here’s Penn’s recent interview with Zach Seth Galifianakis for Between Two Ferns, in which Seth asks Sean Penn where he and Jack Nicholson like to go out to eat together. SPOILER ALERT: It’s not Popeye’s (or even NOPA).

All the Sean Penn news that’s fit to print!
