The political situation in the United States could not help but affect Hollywood. While some support the newly elected president and others hold rallies, Universal is already preparing a dystopian film about what America might look like in the future. According to the portal The Hollywood Reporter , the major has acquired the rights to the script application of the film, describing by no means bright prospects for the United States. The movie, announced as an action movie, was titled Little America ( Little America * ). According to the plot, a president resembling Donald Trump has brought the country to a deplorable state. China has demanded all of its debts, turning the United States into a territory subject to the Celestial Empire. And in such difficult times, a Chinese billionaire turns to a former soldier for help so that he can go to the American ghetto and find the missing daughter of a rich man there. But it wasn't just the political context that caught the attention of Universal bosses. The script was written by Briton Rowan Etail , known for the crime drama Wasteland, and the project is produced by Michael Bay and his company Platinum Dunes . Etail himself plans to head the shooting of the tape. The source claims that the events of the film will be presented not in a dramatic, but rather in a comedic vein, and it will remind the audience of "Escape from New York" by John Carpenter. * -preliminary translation.
