(FROM AP) – Eddie Izzard (The Riches) told Newsweek that he is eyeing a possible career in European politics. ''We've got to make it work in Europe," the 46-year-old comedian told the magazine for its issue hitting newsstands on April 21. ''People are very worried about sovereignty and the loss of sovereignty. I think the stakes are if we don't make the European Union work, then the world is screwed. End of story.''

His Istandup comedy act, ''Stripped,'' will open on April 28 in Boston. (AP via Yahoo!)
