Although he was set to begin production on The Trial of the Chicago Seven, about the tumultuous 1968 Democratic National Convention, very soon, Steven Spielberg has postponed it . Thanks to the writers strike, a polished script was never finished.
Instead, Tony Kushner, famous for writing Angels in America and Munich, answered Spielberg’s prayers by handing him a script for Lincoln.
The Civil War epic will star Liam Neeson, who agreed to play the fallen president three years ago and has since been waiting in the wings for his moment to shine
Variety reports that after that Lincoln, Spielberg will choose between Chicago Seven or Interstellar, a sci-fi thriller.
Ahhh headache! So much done in so little time. Only the genius of Spielberg could pull it off.
First on the list of amazing movies to direct, though, is Tintin, the opening installment in a trilogy of movies he and Peter Jackson are making which tells the story of Belgian comic-strip hero Tintin and his faithful dog Snowy.
Theeennn Spielberg will tackle Lincoln.
