Chris Pine, who was recently featured on My Name is Night, will star in the biopic of legendary CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite. He will replace Seth Rogen, who was previously attached to the project. The film, dubbed Newsflash, was written by Ben Jacoby and produced by Greg Silverman through his company Stampede.The film will tell about the events of November 22, 1963, when the leading US television channels competed with each other, who more quickly and in detail will cover the tragic assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas. In addition to Cronkite himself, the key characters in the story will be his producer Don Hewitt, boss Jim Aubrey and young fellow reporter Dan Rather. Seth Rogen was included in the project at the stage when David Gordon Green was still director, but Green turned away from Newsflash in favor of filming a new "Halloween". * - preliminary translation.
