Norton and Pitt Back Together!
It's not another Fight Club, but does it matter?
Brad Pitt and Edward Norton are two of my favorite actors. Yup, Pitt included. I mean come on, let's look for a second before you think I am way off base. Fight Club, Seven, 12 Monkeys, Snatch, Spy Game, Ocean's Eleven and Troy? Yeah, I like this guy. I am assuming I don't have to make the same case for Ed Norton since it seems to be a known fact that he is the shit, which makes the news that these two Fight Club alums are getting back together all that much more special.
Variety is reporting that Norton and Pitt have signed on to star in State of Play for The Last King of Scotland helmer Kevin Macdonald and Universal Pictures from a Matthew Michael Carnahan script, of which Tony Gilroy is currently giving a polish.
In the pic Norton will play a congressman whose speedy political rise is threatened by an investigation into the death of his mistress. Pitt plays a politico-turned-journalist whose relationship with the solon is compromised when he oversees his newspaper's investigation into the murder and develops a relationship with the pol's estranged wife.
The pic is an adaptation of the British miniseries and is on track for a November start.
