The British billionaire, Richard Branson, along with Relativity Media have purchased a spec script from T.S. Nowlin about Christopher Columbus, in which Terminator Salvation director, McG is attached.
If you didn’t think this was weird, here is where it gets real weird; Deadline described the film as “a ‘300‘-style film about Christopher Columbus and his discovery of America.”
Does this sound a little “off” to anyone else? Maybe I’m missing something here, but I don’t remember being taught in history about what an action style hero badass Christopher Columbus was. In fact, I seem to remember it as a guy who sailed to America, and was convinced it was actually India for a while. I’m guessing this won’t be a true to story type story, rather a boastful fictional tale based around one of history’s most famous explorers.
Needless to say, this film is planned to be shot in 3D….
