Sacha Baron Cohen is well known because of his roles as Borat and Bruno but get ready for another member of the family to invade shobusiness - Ash Baron Cohen.

Ash is the first-cousin of Sacha and like Estevan Oriol, he is as serious as it gets in terms of his directing. He has an upcoming film 'RadioActive,' though he wouldn't/couldn't tell who the lead is. In an interview with Popeater and a Christian Magazine he said:

"I've sat down with Ed Harris, Donald Sutherland, Diane Kruger... we're just trying to figure out who's going to play who. There is one person whose name unfortunately I can't quite announce yet, but he's an Oscar winning actor and we're really excited to work with him,"

"He's someone who has done comedy as well as drama... better known for his comedy, but it's going to be very unusual seeing him as a Godfather."

According to Popeater.com, Ash also has a documentary coming up about 18-year-old Americans who were born with HIV. He initially filmed them when they were 11 years old, and is now following up as they are mature and "doing things most 18 year olds do," aka discovering sex.

"They're 18 years old and unbelievably having sex with HIV-negative partners. The amazing thing for me is there's obviously a new generation out there that don't seem to have a problem with their partners being HIV positive. Yes, they're wearing protection, but if it were you or me going on a potential date and she said she was HIV-positive, that would probably be a potential dealbreaker where it doesn't seem to be for these kids. It's been a pretty eye-opening experience," Ash said of 'Fists.'
