Ritchie ‘plans New York Bar’
By WENNMonday, December 14, 2009
Movie director GUY RITCHIE is eyeing a new career as an entrepreneur - he is reportedly set to open a New York branch of his London bar business.
Madonna’s ex-husband owns the Punch Bowl in London’s plush Mayfair, and the pub has become a regular attraction for his celebrity pals.
Now he is said to be planning to launch a sister project in the Big Apple - after his Hollywood friends urged him to take the venture Stateside.
A pal tells Britain’s News of the World newspaper, “Guy spends a lot of time (at the Punch Bowl) with American actors when they are in London for premieres. They reckon he should branch out and make the pub a global brand. Guy sees this as a huge money spinner.”
