Message: [QUOTE="dreamer13, post: 6369257, member: 487083"] One of the most legendary poker players in the history of the game, Doyle Brunson, at the end of his ninth decade, will still get a film adaptation of his life. Radar Pictures (i) has secured the film rights to Brunson's story, which will be based on his 2009 autobiography, The Godfather of Poker. The film will be written by once-professional poker player Justin Smith, who has 11 production projects under his belt (though not of the very first magnitude). “I personally played poker with Doyle at the highest stakes, and I am honored to help tell his story, and show the environment in detail from the inside,” Smith said after being appointed to the screenwriter position. So far, the tape is at a very early stage development, before launching into production, the finished script will be read and personally approved by Brunson. [/QUOTE]
