When Samuel L. Jackson asks, you don't question his judgment or contemplate saying no to his request. That was what Eddie Izzard thought when he met Jackson, a huge fan of Izzard's FX TV series, "The Riches," who said he wanted to see more (the show was canceled after two seasons). So now Izzard is on a drive to fund a film version of the series — for Samuel. In the meanwhile, Izzard begins his Big Intimacy Tour Stripped Too, the second half of his stand-up romp that began in Europe, where he performed in the native tongue on many of the stops.
