Godfellas

Ben Affleck is in negotiations to direct the fact-based drama "Arizona" reports Variety.

In 1976 Don Bolles an investigative reporter for The Arizona Republic, was killed in a car bomb while investigating the infiltration of organized crime into state government. Soon after, a group of elite national journalists that Bolles had been trying to organize at the time converged on Phoenix and launched an unprecedented crusade to finish Bolles' work.

Affleck's Gone Baby Gone got him in the director's club--this could put in good standing--putting his acting career to bed--if things turn out well.

Sheldon Turner will write the script,

Been a fan of Turner's since he penned The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
