An insight into the WikiLeaks movies coming up By : Lover films

The DreamWorks staff from Steve Spielberg and Stacey Snider to the co-presidents Marc Sourian and Holly Bario is plotted enough by Julian Assange’s story to cobble the rights that will help them to easily attack story in a creative manner and from different angles. If you are a movie fan, just enjoy the upcoming WikiLeaks films. These WikiLeaks movies are based on current political issues prevalent and might prove to be a ray of hope to change the way politics is carried out these days. There are in fact a number of projects in line that will work for these WikiLeaks movies to be a great success.

In fact, DreamWorks has come into limelight on the official front to turn the saga of WikiLeaks and Julian Assange into a movie. This studio has actually acquired the rights to 2 books that are important and popular players in the drama of WikiLeaks. DreamWorks has further secured the screen rights of “Inside WikiLeaks: My Time With Julian Assange at the World’s Most Dangerous Website”, which is a book by the very popular Daniel Domscheit-Berg. He is the former top executive of WikiLeaks who was defected as he wished the site to exercise some journalistic discretion rather than the document dump which occurred.

Further, Universal Pictures will even provide the finances and distribute one documentary by Alex Gibney on the WikiLeaks and Assange episode and this movie will be produced by Alex himself along with former chairman of Universal Pictures, Marc Shmuger. Even HBO is found to be communicating with BBC in order to collaborate on a WikiLeaks movie that will be based partly on the article ‘No Secrets: Julian Assange’s Mission for Total Transparency. Also, Zodiak will be seen distributing another documentary called “WikiLeaks: War, Lies and Videotape”

At the start of the year 2011, it was actually declared that HBO is soon making a film about Assange. This film will be the direct-to-television one and will be based on the article by Raffi Khatchadourian and will lay emphasis on Assange’s life before as well as during the era of WikiLeaks.

It was even news that Alex Gibney and Marc Shmuger will make a movie together under Universal Studios banner. The duo decalred at Sundance that Universal Studios optioned some book and will be soon co-producing the WikiLeaks movie. This is indeed a great twist for the studio that it is producing some project. It refers that the unnamed documentary will get big budget treatment instead of the simple indie-style fame. It further means that politics of piece will soon be tied up in the politics of Universal Studios for worse or better.

This is in fact the very first project of Shmuger after his ending the term as being the head of Universal Studios and a number of people are really curious to see whether he will be successful in his venture or not. On the other side, Gibney is now coming off a set of victories such as Client 9 that is the story of fall faced by Eliot Spitzer from grace and fame. More so, if the past HBO productions are guide, it will take aggressive angle in the political realm and utilize strong documentary techniques in order to portray Assange as polarizing entity. HBO has indeed pulled no punches in the traditional sense and it even tends to lean way liberal in the political portrayals.
