Get yourself an extra large box of popcorn and settle in for the show.

The Tony Abbott movie was until now a dream, but finally a savvy Twitter user, Rob Brown, has made it a reality.

The Australian Prime Minister is taking a lead role in a number of Hollywood blockbusters, including The Devil Wears Lyrca, Clueless and the highly-anticipated Wankerman. All thanks to the glorious world that is Twitter, where users on Monday started creating mock movie titles for the Aussie leader.

All it takes is a bit of creativity, a divisive prime minister up for a challenge and the entire IMDB catalogue. What better way to while away the winter days.

Some of these titles could be blockbuster gold, while others are destined to go straight to DVD. Move over, Channing Tatum, the Australian public has chosen a new leading man.
