Richard Linklater to Direct Movie About Karl Rove


Richard Linklater, director of Slacker and Before Sunrise, is onboard to direct a new movie about, of all people, Karl Rove. The story, originally reported in The Wrap, appeared in today's online editions of the BBC news.

At first glance, the director and film's subject are a very unlikely match. However, Linklater and Rove share a common Texas heritage. A Lone Star perspective on George W. Bush's former Svengali has the potential to be provocative.

The photograph of Linklater is from his appearance at the 2011 Texas Film Hall of Fame ceremony.
