Bin Laden Hunt Movie In Works

Feuer Frei! · 05-18-11, 04:32 AM

Yea great. Can't wait. Not.

Oscar-winning writer/producer Mark Boal is busy turning Osama bin Laden's death into a dramatic climax for his upcoming screenplay about the search for the al-Qaida leader.
Boal and his The Hurt Locker partner and director Kathryn Bigelow have been working on the script about operatives on the hunt for bin Laden since they won the Academy Awards for the 2009 war movie and now they have a solid ending, according to a Variety exclusive.
Their new film reportedly centres on the team that wound up killing bin Laden on Sunday.
Sources close to Boal tell Variety that the fire-fight at the compound in Pakistan where bin Laden was found and killed will feature in the film.
The publication reports Boal had been following the mission to seek out bin Laden, thanks to his access to military intelligence.
Casting for the hard-hitting movie is underway and Bigelow is expected to start shooting this summer.

There is another tiresome Planet of the Apes movie coming out this summer, so the Statue of Liberty is already booked.

The movie script has been on the desk for many years but the studio just didn't think it was quite finished, now the writer has found a happy ending for the movie.

Too bad Rod Serling isn't working on the plot. Then we could find that OBL has somehow survived his burial at sea only to emerge on a planet run by a savage civilization of walking, talking seals.

Beaten to a great sci-fi title by a Czech metal band. Maybe Planet of the Pork is still available.
