Zoolander II

Writer Aaron Sorkin wrote a script entitled The Trial of the Chicago 7, based on the conspiracy trial.[13] Producers Steven Spielberg, Walter F. Parkes, and Laurie MacDonald collaborated on the development of Sorkin's script, with Spielberg intending to direct the film. Sacha Baron Cohen was originally cast as Abbie Hoffman,[14] while Spielberg approached Will Smith for the role of Bobby Seale.[15] The WGA strike, which lasted for 100 days, meant Spielberg was unable to begin filming in April 2008 and he suspended the project.[16] Subsequently, Sorkin was to continue to rewrite the script for Spielberg, and the director intended to mostly cast unknowns to keep the budget down.[17] Paul Greengrass[18] and Ben Stiller[19] have been rumored as replacement directors, but the project has apparently not moved forward.[20]
