Charlize Theron To Play Megyn Kelly In Fox News Movie At Annapurna
Deadline ^ | May 21, 2018 | Patrick Hipes

Posted on 05/21/2018 8:28:21 PM PDT by EdnaMode

Charlize Theron has been set to play Megyn Kelly in Annapurna Pictures’ untitled movie that will focus on the women of Fox News Channel who worked there during the tenure of Roger Ailes, the chairman and network architect who resigned in 2016 amid a sexual and workplace harassment scandal. Jay Roach is directing the pic written by The Big Short scribe Charles Randolph in a project that has been in the works since before Ailes’ death a year ago. It will feature an ensemble cast with characters portraying Ailes and those at FNC during the scandal, which began when ex–host Gretchen Carlson filed her $20 million sexual harassment lawsuit against Ailes.

No other casting is set at this point, we hear, and no start date has been set.

She does meet both qualifications, being fat and being ugly, so good casting.

Really. How deluded would you have to be to think anyone would give a crap about such a movie?

She is a good actor and it won’t be hard to make her look like megyn.

It’s a Rorschach test. Liberals think it’s the future under conservatism and we think it’s the future under liberalism.

I say they should “drag” out Howdy Doodie to play Shep.

I cannot believe my future ex wife would take a part in the schlockumentary. I advised her to take the Atomic Blonde franchise to a new level. I didn’t mean this.

There can never be a sequel until there is a ‘start’
Frankly, this movie is not likely to ever be made. MeAgain Kelly is so old, dude, that anything relating to her has run it’s course like a case of bad diarrhea.

Stormy Daniels has also quietly disappeared. The list of “people who are going to bring down Trump” seems to morph into the list of “Who??”

Well, it’s a sure bet she has little laundry to do. Perhaps her voice wasn’t as STRONG, as she first believed.

LOL- old is old, and, dude, THIS STORY is old enough to be moldy. It’s time to move on to the next squirrel or similar feral animal.

Our MFM is so worthless, they should be paying US to interact.

Who dat there?...no longer stormy.

Never get in your enemy’s way while they are making mistakes...

...it’s hilarious that Hollywood and the left think their tantrums help them.

Cut her some slack. You saw how low the average IQ is for people from South Africa.

Sounds like a challenge. Lucas Glover's wife can play Laurie Dhue Jane Fonda can play Allison Camerata
