First Look at W.

Oliver Stone has taken on Presidents JFK and Nixon, along with September 11 (with 2006's World Trade Center), and has now set his sights on bringing the presidency of George W. Bush to the big screen. Presently titled W., the movie is listed as being in preproduction, with production starting sometime this month. It will supposedly chronicle the life and presidency of George W. Bush and will be released in 2009.

Here's your first look at the first family:



Josh Brolin - George W. Bush








Elizabeth Banks - Laura Bush







James Cromwell - George H. W. Bush








Ellen Burstyn - Barbara Bush







In other casting news, Thandie Newton (of Crash and, most recently, Run, Fat Boy, Run) has been lined up to play Condoleezza Rice. Ioan Gruffudd will play former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Jeffrey Wright will play Colin Powell.

Thoughts?
