Dreyfuss is Cheney in Stone’s ‘W’

I believe our cast is complete

Richard Dreyfuss

I didn’t report on it earlier, but Toby Jones has been cast as Karl Rove in Oliver Stone’s George W. Bush biopic W and now The Hollywood Reporter tells us Richard Dreyfuss has joined the cast as Dick Cheney. From what I can remember from reading the script I think we have our cast.

Dreyfuss joins Josh Brolin (President Bush) Thandie Newton (Condoleezza Rice) and Elizabeth Banks (Laura Bush) in the White House.

The film is set to be released on October 17 in an effort to get it in theaters before the November elections and a January DVD release has already been put in motion. The film was recently billed by some the New York Times as a “dark comedy about the 43rd president of the United States.” An interesting description for a film that has never been described as such by its filmmaker.
