News Euan Morton to Be Warhol Drag Star Holly Woodlawn in "A Low Life in High Heels" Film Tony Award nominee Euan Morton — who donned the white makeup, braided locks and hat as Boy George in Taboo — will once again trade in his duds for that of the female impersonator Holly Woodlawn in the film "A Low Life in High Heels."

Actor Morton will play the famous Andy Warhol contemporary for the film adaptation based on Holly Woodlawn's autobiography "A Low Life in High Heels," according to the New York Blade. The book, once optioned by songstress Madonna, is a curt memoir of the Puerto Rico-born Harold Ajzenberg who grew up in Miami and headed to New York where he became — through hormone treatments, makeup and more — a Warhol superstar. No director is attached to the project which will also reportedly star Alexis Arquette as Andy Warhol.

Morton also earned an Olivier Award nomination when he originated the Taboo role in London. Other theatre credits includeWe Will Rock You, The Silent Treatment, The Matchstalk Man, The Sexual Life of the Camel, An Empty Plate in the Café du Grand Boeuf and Approaching Zanzibar. He has also appeared on television in "The Bill," "Taggart," "Sword of Honour," "The Knock," "Going Out," "London's Burning" and the films "Captain Jack" and "Wednesday's Child."
