Hillary Clinton Movie Role: Scarlett Johansson, Reese Witherspoon, Jessica Chastain And Amanda Seyfried Linked

A movie about the young Hillary Clinton is in the works, and some Hollywood stars are being reported as possibly filling the role - although none of the actresses is actually attached to the project.

According to The Independent, Scarlett Johansson, Reese Witherspoon, Jessica Chastain and Amanda Seyfried are supposedly among the stars "in the running" for Rodham, which portrays Clinton as a Washington lawyer in the 1970s.

But it has to be noted that while director James Ponstoldt tells the outlet "they're all wonderful actresses," absolutely no casting decisions have been made.



"We're very fortunate that a lot of really great actors are interested in playing these roles," Ponstoldt claimed. "We're in an enviable position."

He explains: "Regardless of people's political affiliation or how they feel about Hillary Clinton, you don't find people who question the quality of her intelligence or her drive. I want a wonderful actress who could embody that."

Brad Pitt Vanity Fair June Cover: World War Z Was "Nightmare" Production

Brad Pitt is on Vanity Fair's June cover, and the accompanying story points out just how hard his upcoming "World War Z" was throughout production.


The screenwriter Damon Lindelof revealed to the magazine Pitt's zombie epic was a real passion project.

"He took me through how excited he was when he read the book, what was exciting for him, the geopolitical aspect of it," Lindelof was quoted as saying.

But Pitt is said to have claimed: "We started shooting the thing before we locked down how it was going to end up, and it didn't turn out the way we wanted it to."






According to director Marc Foster and studio executives, the budget soared to $200 million as problems on set and with the script led to 40 minutes of the film being reshot to get a more comprehensible finale.

Vanity Fair reports that when the director's cut was first screened, the room was "silent."

"It was, like: Wow. The ending of our movie doesn't work. I believed in that moment we needed to reshoot the movie," one Paramount executive told.

An entire 12-minute Russian battle scene was thrown out as the World War Z team scrambled to create an improved ending to the film.

The movie finally got made despite cost overruns and issues that one executive described as a "nightmare."
