"New Line has closed a deal to acquire The Virginian, a formative period action thriller about Founding Father George Washington before he found his place in defiance of the British Army. The script is by Michael Gunn, a protege of Aaron Sorkin. This one has had more than its share of buzz around town, because agents of talent have asked to read it on behalf of their star clients, though there is no star attached at this stage. Donald De Line will produce. Deal was mid-six figures.… The script's movie potential is best described as Last Of The Mohicans meets Braveheart. A down-and-out, young George Washington — desperate to join the British Army — accepts a dangerous mission to conquer a French fort and save the American colonies." See here link Amicalement Armand |

First word, second line of the second paragraph damns it already |

Let me see…. Tom Cruise ? George Clooney? Both are a bit long in the tooth for the required ninja tactics but are sufficiently elderly for the required gravitas. |

All you had to do was mention Braveheart to guarantee that I won't be watching it. |
