Christopher Walken and Fat Boy Slim...

[Mini-Me]

Most of us know that Christopher Walken stared in the Fatboy Slim video Weapon Of Choice.

What I want to know, is how they got him to play the part?

I would suspect money.

Walken has always done goofy stuff like that. And then there is money. :p

[Mini-Me]

Probably, but I would not have thought they could afford to pay someone like Walken for a music-video - they are usually relatively low-budget compared to movie budgets...
:p

Well, considering that it was directed by Spike Jonze and Walken is listed as one of the three choreographers, which he won a VMA for...it wasn't exactly cheap to make and he was involved in the production, to some extent.
