Tommy Robredo Movie Star
by Sean Randall
As Holiday tradition in the U.S. dictates, one can never get enough of flipping through the mindless crap of programs that is cable TV. That is until last night when I stopped on a flick entitled “Cellular” and I come to find out that starring alongside Kim Basinger, Jason Statham, William Macy and Jessica Beil is none other than Tommy Robredo. That’s right, Tommy Robredo.
Not only is Tommy in the movie, but he’s the central figure! How the hell did that happen? And go figure, in the movie, which is fairly entertaining, he lost the Spanish accent and never did flaunt that one-handed backhand - he did punch a dude. But during shooting, I wonder where did he hide his racquet bag? His dunlop sticks?? Or his nasty Sergio Tachinni rags?
Well done Tommy, I’ll be on the lookout for more of your movies. Hope the tennis career is still in tact, but if not, looks like you got a future on the big screen. Can’t wait for the sequel…
