A film based on the book by Ayn Rand
Whilst FOX try and come up with more cabbage to entice them into doing a “Mr & Mrs Smith” sequel – which is exactly what’s reported to be happening with that series – the Jolie-Pitt’s are eyeing doing a film together for a different troupe.
Angie and Brad are said to be circling Lionsgate’s “Atlas Shrugged”, a film based on Ayn Rand’s best-selling book. At 1,100 pages the book would be quite a challenge to adapt to film – but scribes Howard and Karen Baldwin (“Ray”) have apparently made a good go of it.
The novel, first published in 1957, tells the the story of a man who said that he would stop the motor of the world–and did. Was he a destroyer or the greatest of liberators? Why did he have to fight his battle, not against his enemies but against those who needed him most–and his hardest battle against the woman he loved? What is the world’s motor–and the motive power of every man?
The sexiest-couple-in-the-world would play the lead duo, Dagny Taggart and John Galt.
