    That'd be nice, they are good friends after all.

    I'm wondering when filming will start. I mean, he must be finished until March.

    Oh, Benedict and Dan Stevens, that's enough reason to watch the movie. Story must be great, too. I'm glad they're turning it into a movie. Also wondering about when they'll start. Have they made that public yet?

    I'm really excited. I wonder if Assange approves the film and whether or not Benedict has met him or is going to meet him!?

    Re: Benedict to play Julian Assange?

    Yes, I wonder about that, too. As far as I know it will be based on Daniel Domscheit-Berg's book about Wikileaks which is quite critical towards Assange. I actually thought they had started shooting when the pic of Benedict and Daniel Brühl was tweeted but then he went to L.A. for the Golden Globes first.

    Isn't there a fangirl in Iceland who can post photos of the shooting on tumblr for God's sake!

    I hope so. There must be at least one fangirl up there. And there will be more as soons as he arrives.

    Re: Benedict to play Julian Assange?

    Will it (Assange movie) be a bio-pic or will they only focus on the months leading up to his "arrest"? It's like before he got arrested, everyone was like "That guy's annoying"; then after he got arrested, everyone's suddenly "Oh my God, he's a hero!".

    Re: Benedict to play Julian Assange?

    As far as I know it's based on Daniel Domscheit-Berg's book about his time with Assange. Therefore I think it will cover the years with Wikileaks as well.
