Robert Downey Jr. to play Hugh Hefner?

t’s not a 100 percent done deal, but sources say Hefner has signed off on Downey to play him in the movie, with the working title “Playboy” (How Original).

Chicago is expected to be used for the shooting of scenes focusing on the early years of Playboy magazine. A Chicago native, Hefner grew up in Galewood and launched Playboy here before moving the California.

No word yet on when the cameras actually will begin rolling, but it could happen as soon as next summer.

A representative for the actor said he’s interested in the Hefner project but is unlikely to commit to it until a script is done and a director is named.
