George Clooney to direct Wall Street movie

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.

About the Author

- Paul has been writing for film websites for over ten years. The Hollywood News was born out of love for film and his frustration at not being a very good filmmaker himself. Those who cannot do, write about – or so they say. Aside from the site, Paul has directed a music video (badly), has one credit to his name on the IMDb, enjoys running, driving (now that he has finally passed his test at the age of 33), and of course going to the movies.
