Adam McKay, the director of "The Big Short," which focused on the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis, has recently signed a deal with Paramount to direct a biopic about former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney. Brad Pitt's production company, Plan B, will once again collaborate with McKay after "Moneyball" and "The Big Short" to produce this film. Dick Cheney is known as the most powerful vice president in U.S. history and is also a role model for current U.S. Vice President Mike Pence. During Bush's eight years in office, Cheney was ostensibly the second-most powerful person in the U.S., but in reality, many of President George W. Bush's decisions, including the Afghanistan War and the invasion of Iraq, were made by him. Cheney himself is a controversial figure full of contradictions. He has always been aligned with conservative parties, having served as a staff member for Nixon, Ford, and the elder Bush administrations, then became CEO of Halliburton for a few years before entering the White House with George W. Bush. However, he has supported same-sex marriage because his daughter is a lesbian. Additionally, while Cheney delayed going to the Vietnam War battlefield five times, he is an unwavering hawk. McKay stated, "I've always found Cheney to be an interesting character and wanted to understand what drives him and what he truly believes in. So we conducted an in-depth investigation, and the results were shocking. Cheney can be considered one of the most powerful political figures in modern American history; he significantly shaped the current international standing of the U.S., and the methods he used to seize power are astonishing." McKay hopes to begin filming the project in the spring of 2017 and release it by the end of the year. He is currently looking for suitable actors. The filming of "Cheney" means that McKay's previously taken project "Bad Blood" will be postponed.
