"Hollywood producer Barrie M Osborne has said he is eager to work with South Indian star Kamal Haasan.  The producer of Face Off and the Lord of the Rings trilogy was &amp;quot;fascinated&amp;quot; with the 57-year-old actor after seeing his performance in the Tamil action thriller Vishwaroopam, IANS reports.  &amp;quot;After I saw his soon-to-be-released film, I was so fascinated with his work that I immediately decided to work with him,&amp;quot; said Osborne. &amp;quot;I decided by joining forces with Kamal, I can not only make films, but prove to the world that there&amp;#039;s harmony in working together and making movies.&amp;quot; Haasan is said to be considering an offer and, with negotiations ongoing, a decision regarding a future collaboration with the Hollywood producer will be made soon.       Vishwaroopam is a Tamil-Hindi bilingual Indian spy thriller written, directed and co-produced by Haasan, who also takes on the lead role. The film also stars Pooja Kumar and Rahul Bose in supporting roles.  Sonakshi Sinha was originally cast in the movie but was reportedly axed because she was unable to achieve the lean physique required for the role. Vishwaroopam is expected to release in January 2013.
