Jolie is out of the picture! Hooray! However, now Cate Blanchett, Keira Knightly, Julia Roberts, and Charlize Theron have expressed interest in playing Dagny.

I'm glad Jolie is out of the picture because, just as I'm sure we all guessed, here's Hollywood's and Jolie's take on Atlas Shrugged: It's all about "sex and gender".

You can read what Jolie says about Rand and Atlas Shrugged by clicking here and scrolling to the last part of the article. Gag!

But, I'm sure those other actresses named would miss the whole point about free markets, too. How about Angie Harmon as Dagny. She's the right age, and she's a Republican. She's the actress on Law & Order.

Ooh, I was thinking of Cate Blanchett, although I couldn't tell you what she has acted in. She does seem to have a great reputation. Kathy Bates as Hanks mom anyone? I pictured Phillip Seymour Huffman (Hoffman?) as Phillip.

I also hope that they release the movies in three parts, with the three books in Atlas. Even that might be cutting it thin.
