If not for hollyweird leftism I would say Freefall or Icefire by Judith and Garfield Reeves Stevens.

Foundation trilogy.

Is that really cinematic though? The Mathematicians are at war with the Statisticians! Throw in Robert Silverburg as someone who's not gotten the cinematic adaptations he deserves.

Sure. Narrator voice-over to explain who Harry Seldon is, then take it from there. Power struggles, lot's of action, wars in interstellar space....

It's a three-parter, too. Get someone who looks like Clinton for The Mule. I always suspected he was The Mule anyways.
