Sometimes the real world can be just as interesting as the one illustrated in the comics. That is even more true in the world of politics, which have seen as many heroes and super-villains as those found in the Marvel or DC universes recently. With that in mind, director Adam McKay (The Big Short), will be at the helm of an upcoming Dick Cheney biopic that is sure to move the needle.

The upcoming film is produced by Annapurna Pictures and Plan B, after Paramount passed on the project. McKay has already lined up Christian Bale (The Dark Knight trilogy) in the starring role along with Steve Carrell (Foxcatcher) as Donald Rumsfeld. The rest of the supporting cast is being constructed as you read this and we have the latest on the upcoming feature.
