Conan Getting a Rewrite for Lionsgate
Dirk Blackman and Howard McCain have been hired to redraft the script for Lionsgate’s barbarian epic Conan, the updated remake of sorts of 1982′s Conan The Barbarian.
The movie is a potential resurrection of the classic warrior created by Robert E. Howard, who has appeared in dozens of pulp stories published in the 1930s. In 1982, Oliver Stone and John Milius wrote a bloody adaptation, which Milius also directed, that starred Arnold Schwarzenegger.
After finishing a script titled Amazon about female warriors with Scarlett Johansson attached, the two were brought on to work on a Conan script separate from the original two writers Thomas Dean Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer. Now Lionsgate is anxious to get this into production right away and are trying to launch a franchise by making it a $100 million R-rated origin film. “We all want this movie to go into production as soon as possible. It’s a fast-tracked movie.”

Bush in Oliver Stones my first thoughts were “Why the hell are they making a movie on George Bush?”, and secondly, “Josh Brolin doesn’t look anything like him. Brolin looks slightly intelligent for a start” but J.B. definitely resembles George W Bush in the upcoming “W” film, about the life of the current US President. In one of the two new pictures that we have for you, Brolin is dressed in a Texas Rangers jacket, the team that Bush co-owned.
