Somebody has to squeeze that book into a movie. And the script must be written far away from Hollywood. And be filmed farther away.””

Angelina Jolie has the movie rights to Atlas Shrugged.

Any guesses what that will produce??

Unfortunately it appears that Jolie is out of the Atlas Shrugged business.

I was under the impression that she was still pretty much in control, but just yesterday on another forum, someone disabused me of that notion.

They mention that for the lead actress, Cate Blanchett, Keira Knightly, Julia Roberts, and Charlize Theron want the part.

I dont know about Nightly's politics, but the other three are rabid anti-capitalists, and two of them are rabid anti-American as well. I think that Nightly is a major hottie, but being a Brit, she is probably pretty liberal, if not a lefty.

So none of them would be able to portray Dagny honestly.
