Howard and Silberling are 'Crusaders'

New drama for New Line finds a lead and helmer.

Now this one isn't set in stone so take it for what it's worth, but Terrence Howard and Brad Silberling are in negotiations to star in and direct, respectively, The Crusaders, a new drama for New Line Cinema.

The screenplay was written by Lawrence O'Donnell and Paul Redford and the film is said to be the true story of Thurgood Marshall (Howard), the first black Supreme Court justice, as seen through the eyes of Jack Greenberg, a dedicated young lawyer who became the only white member of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and who fought side by side with Marshall in the courts to destroy segregation.

If Howard isn't nominated for an Oscar this year this may be the flick to do it. The man is such a good actor I see several Oscars in his future, I would just prefer to see one sooner rather than later.
