George Clooney reportedly plans to play a part of a movie featuring the story of Osama bin Laden’s chauffer.
Clooney’s production company, Smokehouse, recently bought the rights to the book “The Challenge” by Jonathan Mahler depicting the life of bin Laden’s driver and his trial against the mighty U.S. government.
The book depicts the driver, Salim Hamdan, and his lawyer, Charles Swift, sympathetically. Swift argued for Hamdan claiming he only took the job for Osama to provide for his family.
Hamdan was convicted anyway to five-and-a-half years in the slammer for his affiliation with the terrorist leader.
I’m not going to pretend that I know how things are working over there in the middle east, but if I were Salim I probably would’ve avoided any dealings with Osama bin Laden. Just seems safer that way.
Regardless, Clooney plans to play the part of Swift in this flick that I’m sure will do well given it’s controversial storyline.
