The Wikileaks Movie universe expanded this week as Speilberg’s DreamWorks Studios optioned movie rights to two books on Wikileaks and Julian Assange. While no director or producer has been associated with this Wikileaks Movie we have confirmed through numerous sources that Dreamworks Studios, which is co-owned by Steven Spielberg, has indeed acquired rights to two books. The first book, titled “WikiLeaks: Inside Julian Assange’s War on Secrecy” was written by journalists David Leigh and Luke Harding who work at The Guardian and have been deeply involved in the Wikileaks and Julian Assange affair. The other book, titled “Inside WikiLeaks: My Time with Julian Assange at the World’s Most Dangerous Website” was the brainchild of Daniel Domscheit-Berg, formerly the right hand man of Julian Assange who defected from the organization on bad terms in 2010. Since the impacts of Cablegate and legal battles surrounding Julian Assange are by no means over with, it appears that many of the Wikileaks Movie projects underway may take some time to reach cinemas. However, with numerous projects in the works, it is almost guaranteed that Wikileaks watchers and movie goers will have the opportunity to see a Wikileaks Movie.
