Spoiled, WASP, fuck-up makes it to the White House—it’s the stuff American dreams are made of. It’s also the subject of a new Oliver Stone film called W. starring Josh Brolin as the misguided, young son of an insensitive daddy and your future president George W. Bush. Turns out Stone actually went to Yale with Bush until Stone dropped out to serve in Vietnam—a fact we’re sure will have no affect on his depiction of the president. Other casting of note includes Jeffrey Wright as Colin Powell and Richard Dreyfuss as Dick Cheney. The film is due out in October of this year. Just in time for the presidential elections.
