" Peter Dinklage, 44-year-old veteran actor and fan favorite on Game of Thrones, has signed on to play the lead in an upcoming Paramount R-rated comedy about a man who pretends to be a leprechaun. If this sounds a bit like Bad Santa, well, the studio basically admits that&amp;#039;s what they&amp;#039;re going for, and the script was written by Andrew Dodge, who wrote Jason Bateman&amp;#039;s directorial debut Bad Words, which was popular at this year&amp;#039;s Toronto International Film Festival. But this isn&amp;#039;t exactly Dinklage&amp;#039;s first starring movie role. Those of you who&amp;#039;ve been following him since pre-GoT days may remember him from his breakout The Station Agent, in which he plays a man who moves to an abandoned train depot to figure out his life. Here&amp;#039;s to hoping he&amp;#039;s just as funny and ferocious in this. Below, watch Peter Dinklage in Esquire&amp;#039;s Life of Man video on what he&amp;#039;s most proud of:      For more of The Life of Man, go to lifeofman.esquire.com  Follow The Culture Blog on RSS and on Twitter at @ESQCulture.
