Oliver Stone Movie Updates

Jamie Foxx is in talks to play Martin Luther King Jr. in a biopic that Oliver Stone is in negotiations to direct for DreamWorks and Warner Bros.

Paul Greengrass will push back for at least a year his Martin Luther King Jr assassination film Memphis. I'm told he's now looking at several projects to do next, and the front-runner is The Deep Blue Good-by, one of the John D. MacDonald series of novels with character Travis McGee.

"Charlie St. Cloud" star Zac Efron and Justin Timberlake both have their eye on the same role when the inevitable movie adaptation of the hit Tony-winning Broadway musical "Memphis" makes it to the big screen, reports the New York Post.

Q. DO YOU THINK YOU'LL BE REVISITING WALL STREET IN ANOTHER 22 YEARS? A. Why not? We left it open at the end in a way on which we can hang a "Wall Street 3." We'll have Gekko back and maybe Josh Brolin, too.

Oliver Stone is doing some investigating for 20th Century Fox. Director, who helmed Fox's upcoming "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps," is coming aboard to develop and possible direct "Travis McGee," based on the fictional detective created by American author John D. MacDonald.
