Revisionist director Oliver Stone may have found his leading man for his film "Evita." He has already bagged Michelle Pfeiffer to play the lady in question, says US magazine. And Stone approached Julio Iglesias to play Juan Peron, the crooner's people eagerly insist. Iglesias is mulling it over.

Michael Eisner, the Hollywood heavyweight credited with helping turn the Walt Disney Co. around, was recuperating Sunday from quadruple coronary bypass surgery and should return to work soon.

"He's doing very well, and he had a very restful night," said John Dreyer, a Disney vice president.

Dreyer said doctors are pleased with Eisner's progress after Saturday's three-hour operation at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

The 52-year-old Eisner felt ill Friday night and went to see his doctor, who recommended the surgery, said Disney spokesman Tom Deegan.
