I know it's early in the week but news from Hollywood demands a slice of Tuesday Fromage.

Variety.com reports that a pair of independent production companies in Nashville are proceeding with plans to film a biography of country music legend Hank Williams, Sr., a founding father of the vice-yourself-to-death movement among celebrities. Plagued by spina bifida, Williams became addicted to morphine and whiskey that eventually killed him on New Year's Eve, 1953, passed out in the backseat of a car he had hitchhiked his way into.

Williams' life and career was previously dramatized in the 1964 film Your Cheatin' Heart, starring George Hamilton as the late singer-songwriter, lipsynching to Hank Williams, Jr. -- whose own dicey, vicey life would make a better movie that the TV thing starring John-Boy Walton -- singing his daddy's songs.

Hamilton isn't being considered to reprise Hank Sr., of course. My money's on Zac Efron, the way things go these days.
