16. The Current War (Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Holland)

MCU Actors 2017

No, not a movie focusing on any modern day conflicts, but instead a look at the battle between Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse.

The two electricity titans were in a race against each other to perfect a sustainable system, and then market it to the American people. Benedict Cumberbatch takes on the role of Edison, with Westinghouse played by Michael Shannon. Support comes from Tom Holland, Katherine Waterston, and Nic Hoult (who's playing Nikola Tesla).

Alfonso Gomez-Rejon (Me and Earl and the Dying Girl) directs from a script by Michael Mitnick (Vinyl).

Release Date: TBC

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
