Billy Milligan, the man with 24 personalities

As we have seen, the different personalities of Billy Milligan are very different each other.So much so that they even have different names "now I'm Billy, now I'm Martin"...This detail that shocks us so much, I also draw attention on Dr.David Caul, whom we should mention as the person who recognized Billy Milligan's "The Undesirable".

Living together such different characters in the same person, it is natural that Hollywood actors and possibly from all over the world, they would see Billy Milligan as an interpretive challenge.

The Crowded Room and Leonardo DiCaprio.The enigmatic film that should explain the history of Billy Milligan

Already in 2015 it announced the project of the movie The Crowded Room, starring Leonardo DiCaprio .An ambitious project and a challenge that, we wanted DiCaprio, to overcome successfully, when trying to interpret the multiple personalities of Billy Milligan, whose original name was William Stanley Milligan.

Billy Milligan, the man with 24 personalities

The script of the movie was a adaptation of the book about Billy Mill igan that we talked about earlier and was written by Jason Smilovic and Todd Katzberg.Unfortunately, the years have passed and we have not yet been able to enjoy an official trailer of The Crowded Room .

Among the fans it is speculated that the premiere of a movie about multiple personality like Multiple by M.Night Shyamalan could delay the production of the film that we expected so much.

Billy Milligan, the man with 24 personalities

In any case, we do not lose hope, since a Billy Milligan with his 24 personalities interpreted by DiCaprio can be something absolutely memorable.Do you also want to see The Crowded Room ?

Can you imagine living like this? Without even knowing who you are? Who would not go crazy with 24 different personalities...
