Oscar-winning filmmaker Oliver Stone was so nervous while shooting his upcoming Edward Snowden biopic that he moved the entire production to Germany to avoid interference from the National Security Agency.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is set to play former NSA contractor and whistleblower Edward Snowden in an Oliver Stone biopic early next year – and in an interview with the Guardian, the actor details a secret meeting he had with Snowden in Russia to prepare for the role.
The first trailer for Oliver Stone’s Snowden biopic premiered online Tuesday, and while the short teaser offers literally nothing in the way of footage from the movie, its tone hints at the direction that Stone is going to take with his film.
Hollywood director Oliver Stone took to his Facebook page on Tuesday to offer his opinion about the year’s events in Ukraine. Stone pointed the finger at the United Sates government, and the CIA in particular, for the ouster of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych.
