Yesterday President Hugo Chavez said during his Sunday reality show “Alo Presidente”, that two top world filmamkers including Oliver Stone had asked for permission to make a movie about the 2002 “coup” and said that they had authorized him to announce it on his Sunday program.
Well, today Reuters is carrying this news item in which Stone says that “these rumors are untrue and unfounded”
Oh shucks!, I guess Chavez will have to concentarte on saving the world and maybe later, the Universe!
(Note added: It turns out Chavez had already picked the cast for the movie, here i is:
Hugo Chavez: Himself or Tom Hanks
Lucas Rincon: Robin Williams
Pedro Carmona: Danny DaVito
Jose Vicente Rangel: Jack Nicholson
Diosdado Cabello: Kevin Spacey
As with the revolution, no woman would play any important role in the movie)
