Jerry Bruckheimer Around The Pitch Circuit With Afghanistan War Tale Equine Soldiers

Here’s something you don’t frequently see, producer Jerry Bruckheimer out pitching a film package. I’m told the Disney-based producer continues to be out now having a pitch for Equine Soldiers, an adaptation from the Doug Stanton book which has a Ted Tally script rewritten by Peter Craig, and Nicolai Fuglsig mounted on direct. Disney bought it for Bruckheimer in 2009. The real story involves 12 elite special forces soldiers and CIA agents who privately penetrated Afghanistan after 9/11. They showed up on horses and assisted Afghan martial artists capture the town of Mazar-i-Sharif and topple the Taliban. The project has got the same degree of warfare apparent within the Bruckheimer-created Black Hawk Lower, which got produced by The new sony and Revolution. It’s not the very first Bruckheimer project that Disney jettisoned since it didn’t fit Wealthy Ross’s family film mandate. In June, 2010, Disney place in turnaround an adaptation from the Steven Pressfield historic novel Killing Rommel, after several drafts were compiled by Randall Wallace and Pressfield, most widely known for writing Gates of Fire and also the Legend of Bagger Vance. Bruckheimer subsequently attempted to setup that book, which stories the daring attempt with a British battalion to capture German Area Marshal Erwin Rommel, at any given time when his Panzer tanks were overrunning its northern border African desert and driving Winston Churchill crazy in World war 2. Bruckheimer ultimately threw in the towel on that certain, and also the privileges are actually available.
