Future Biopic
The Passenger was the putative name for a biographical film about Pop's early career with the Stooges. The film was to be directed by Nick Gomez, and Elijah Wood was to play Iggy Pop. As of 2010, the project appears to be shelved.
Pop liked the script but refused to take part in the film. He said:
The script ain't chopped liver... It was a work of art. But subjectively, I don't want to be involved in any way. A producer and the writer sent me a very decent letter, and asked me to write back if I didn't want them to do it... I don't feel negative about it at all.
He also called Wood "a very poised and talented actor".
