Kevin McKidd may be giving countryman Gerard Butler some serious box office
competition in the near future! In a new interview Kevin told PopWrap that two
of his most beloved projects have big screen versions in the works. First up,
the oft-rumored about feature film based on HBO's gone-too-soon "Rome!"

"There is a script that is being shopped and it's supposedly very good, I
haven't seen it, but I am definitely going to be a part of the movie," Kevin
told PopWrap. He then went on to say that his character, soldier/politician
Lucius Vorenus, is not dead despite what happened in the show. "He very much
alive, so that should be a fun story to tell."

On a more animated note, Kevin -- who voices Captain "Soap" MacTavish in "Call
Of Duty Modern Warfare 2" -- says that the hugely successful video game
franchise is also eyeing a big screen incarnation.

"They were looking for a rough, Scottish actor in Hollywood they probably
couldn't get Gerard Butler, so they got the No. 2 Gerard Butler, me. I had no
idea it would be so huge, and now there are talks of a feature film," he
revealed to PopWrap. Then came the kicker, when asked if he would be bringing
Soap to life in the movie, he said, "if the script is good, and Gerard isn't
available [laughs], then absolutely."

Um, you're freakin' adorable Kevin, just FYI. As for scoop on his "Grey's
Anatomy" love triangle and what the arrival of Kim Raver's character means for
Dr. Hunt, check back for that lump o' news on Thursday!

Oh, and if you want to learn what all the fuss is about, "Rome: The Complete
Series" hits DVD today!
