Oliver Stone Making Another 9/11 Movie image
World Trade Center may not have been all that profitable, but it was good enough to put Oliver Stone back in everyone's good graces. Alexander? What's that? Now Paramount Pictures thinks he's a good bet, so they're developing a project for him called Jawbreaker, a movie about the most controversial issues imaginable: America's response to terrorism, Afghanistan, and the hunt for Bin Laden.

The movie is being based in part on a book written by CIA pointman in Afghanistan Gary Bernsten. Cyrus Nowrasteh, who wrote the almost universally loathed ABC miniseries The Path to 9/11 is working on the current draft of Jawbreaker's script.

So let's recap. We have the most controversial issue on the planet being developed into a movie by a guy who wrote a controversial miniseries on the subject to be directed by the guy who practically invented the modern meaning of the phrase "conspiracy theory". Now I know Stone restrained himself and did a remarkably lunacy free job on World Trade Center, but do we really want to tempt fate twice? No way he'll be able to hold back this time. Jawbreaker should be interesting� to say the least.
