Frank Langella is not a crook... again!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. The movie adaptation of the stage play FROST-NIXON is moving forward, with the original stars in the lead: Michael Sheen (BLOOD DIAMOND) as David Frost and Frank Langella as Richard Nixon.

There have been many rumors circulating as to who was going to fill the roles for the Ron Howard flick (screenplay by the originator of the play and recent writer of both THE QUEEN and LAST KING OF SCOTLAND, Peter Morgan), but in the end they decided if it wasn't broke don't fix it.

The flick takes place post Watergate and covers a series of interviews of Nixon conducted by British Journalist David Frost. Shooting begins this fall.
