Mick Jagger

Rolling Stone Mick Jagger could soon launch a new career as an actor in a television situation comedy.

Jagger is in negotiations to play a celebrity who is the target of a plot by a group of blue-collar New York workers to rob someone famous, in a pilot for a sitcom series.

The show had originally been titled I Want to Rob Jeff Goldblum, but the American actor never signed on for the role as the hapless celebrity. Producers then rewrote the pilot for Jagger.
