I love those guys at
Latino Review. Another one of their scoops from a while back has been confirmed today (
Vaughn replacing Farino in the director's chair for What Happens in Vegas) which
Variety have only just picked up. So we're going to run their two latest exclusives... The guys are reporting that
Oliver Stone is to tackle Vietnam again with
Pinkville, a movie about the My Lai massacre in Vietnam. Boy does this sound like typical Oliver Stone fodder...
The My Lai Massacre, was the massacre of hundreds of unarmed Vietnamese civilians, mostly women and children, by U.S. soldiers on March 16, 1968, in the hamlet of My Lai, during the Vietnam War. It prompted widespread outrage around the world and reduced American support at home for the war in Vietnam.
Sean Penn and
Channing Tatum are said to be attached. Their other scoop is that
Christian Bale is "loosely attached" for the lead role in
Joe Carnahan's Killing Pablo, which Carnahan still plans to make despite him under-taking other projects all the time.
