Brad Pitt is set to star in a new film directed by Steven Soderbergh, Moneyball.
Steven Soderbergh is in early talks to direct “Moneyball,” the Columbia Picturesadaptation of the Michael Lewis book “Moneyball: The Art of Winning An Unfair Game.” Pic will star Brad Pitt and is being adapted by Steven Zaillian.Soderbergh is looking to make the picture his next directing assignment. He had been expected to next direct “Cleo,” the musical about the fatal romance between Egyptian queen Cleopatra and Roman general Marc Antony.
Soderbergh had lined up his “Traffic” star Catherine Zeta-Jones to play the title character, and had Hugh Jackman in his sights for Antony. Though he set his financing, Soderbergh decided to push back the film until next year, after Jackman dropped out because of scheduling problems.
Pitt is still such a busy guy, I wonder how well he knows all those kids.
