EXCLUSIVE: David Costabile, who plays Bobby Axelrod’s right-hand man Mike “Wags” Wagner stars on Showtime’s Billions, has signed on for the Mötley Crüe biopic, The Dirt, as the group’s longtime manager Doc McGhee.
Jeff Tremaine is directing the Netflix/LBI Entertainment film that stars Douglas Booth as Nikki Sixx, Iwan Rheon as Mick Mars, Daniel Webber as Vince Neil and Machine Gun Kelly as Tommy Lee.
The pic is based on the Neil Strauss’ book The Dirt: Confessions of the World’s Most Notorious Rock Band, which was adapted for the screen by Rich Wilkes, Tom Kapinos and Amanda Adelson. It follows the band’s rise to international stardom in the 1980s.
Julie Yorn, Erik Olsen, and Allen Kovac are producing.
Costabile, whose credits include Breaking Bad, Lincoln and 13 Hours, is repped by ICM and Gartner/Green.
