Summary

Sean Penn is reportedly planning to direct a biopic about a police officer who defended the Capitol during the January 6 insurrection, with Bradley Cooper attached to star as the officer. The film, as-yet-untitled, is described by Deadline as "an unexpected story about friendship" rather than a film explicitly about January 6. Given Penn's political leanings, the article suggests the film will likely be critical of President Trump. The project faces potential hurdles regarding production feasibility.
