WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange life story up for movie |
2011-01-21 |
A MOVIE about Julian Assange is being fast-tracked before he can leak his own life story, the New York Post reported yesterday. This has always had 'Lifetime Network' written all over it... Assange has said that he is penning a book that could become a screenplay, but Josephson Entertainment and Michelle Krumm Productions have stolen the WikiLeaks founder's thunder by optioning an upcoming biography about the controversial Australian. Don't forget the consensual rape scene... "The Most Dangerous Man in the World," is by Andrew Fowler, who interviewed Assange, 39, last year. Krumm said the book would become a "thought-provoking thriller." Assange signed a $1.54 million autobiography deal in December, with the book being rushed to press for release in April 2011. |

#2 Never watch it, WM. Is it any good? Having never watched either, I place it on par with the "Oxygen Network" (is that still on air? why?). |
