Liam Neeson in Talks to Play Lincoln in Spielberg Helmed Biopic
Spielberg is in talks with Liam Neeson to play the Lincoln as he steers the North to victory in the Civil War. The film's screenplay will be adapted from the Pulitzer-Prize winning author, Doris Kearns Goodwin's soon to be completed book, "The Uniter: The Genius of Abraham Lincoln," will be published this fall.
Spielberg, currently wrapping up production on "War of the Worlds", is said to have wanted to make a biopic on Lincoln since 2001 when the studio which he co-owns, Dreamworks, bought the rights to the biography written by Goodwin.
A major question mark is on a lot of people's minds as to whether the sexuality of Lincoln, which has been question in the past, will be touched upon in the biopic.
Issues pissing me off (IPMO):
- The main controversy is his sexuality? FUCK YOU!
- Probably will be filmed outside of the US in the middle of an economic depression? FUCK YOU!
- Goddamn whitey's don't give a peep as long as the actor is white, yet even the slightest hint of sexual impropriety sets off a controversy? FUCK YOU!
- Gee, I wonder why they're not doing Thomas Jefferson...FUCK YOU!
Finally, a shout out to all my groupies: Stay smart, be angry, and don't take any shit!
Peace out, y'all!
