By Behind The Scenes TV on Jan 22, 2008 in Directors, In-Development, News
Oliver Stone, the uncompromising director whose subjects have included Presidents John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon, Alexander the Great and Fidel Castro, has set his sights on the present White House incumbent.
The Oscar-winning filmmaker is working on Bush, a project focusing on the life and presidency of George W Bush, Variety reported.
The director is in talks with Josh Brolin, currently starring in No Country For Old Men, to play the lead role.
Stone, who has been highly critical of the President, told the trade paper for the entertainment industry that the film would be “a fair, true portrait of the man”, examining areas such as his relationship with his father, President George HW Bush, his youth, and conversion to Christianity.
