Denzel Washington has refused to star in a movie made by killer doctor Conrad Murray about Michael Jackson.
Murray, 60, who injected the star with a fatal dose of anaesthetic Propofol, has been touting around a screenplay about his disastrous relationship with the King of Pop.
And the disgraced cardiologist , released three weeks ago, wanted double Oscar-winner Denzel, 58, to play him.
But a Hollywood source said: “ Denzel is not interested.
"He was friends with Michael and was deeply saddened by what happened.
"The thought of helping the man who killed him is preposterous.”
He added: “Murray is deluded if he thinks any Hollywood A-lister will be interested in working with him.
"He is presenting his tale as if he is the victim.”
