George Clooney is all set to produce, and possibly direct a film based on the 2008 Wall Street government bailouts in the US. Variety reports the news that the Clooney will base his movie on a 2009 Washington Post article by Laura Blumenfeld entitled “The $700 Billion Man.”
The word around the Hollywood camp fire is that Zach Helm (STRANGER THAN FICTION), is on board to write the script.
The original Washington Post article is online, and you can read it at the end of this link.
