New Movie: Frost/Nixon (2008)

I first learned of this upcoming movie last week, as it was filming in a library on the USC campus.

Michael Sheen, who played Tony Blair in THE QUEEN, takes on another real-life personage in a film with unusual subject matter: FROST/NIXON, about the 1977 TV interviews David Frost conducted with former President Richard M. Nixon.

Ron Howard directs, with Frank Langella playing President Nixon. Sheen and Langella also played the roles on stage.

Former child actress Patty McCormack (THE BAD SEED) plays Patricia Nixon. Matthew Macfadyen (PRIDE & PREJUDICE), Kevin Bacon, and Oliver Platt round out the cast.
