Based upon U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle's autobiography--Jason Dean Hall will write the adapted script about Texas native Kyle (Bradley Cooper) who came to record the highest number of sniper kills (255) for an American. The book is a frank first-person account and includes passages from his wife who slowly watches her husband’s affection turn from her to his job. Tragically, this true American hero was killed by a fellow veteran at a shooting range in February.
Cooper will produce along with Andrew Lazar Spielberg and Peter Morgan.
Production is tentatively scheduled to begin in the first quarter of next year. Cooper is currently making American Hustle for director David O. Russell in Boston.
Spielberg was previously set to make Robopocalypse as his next film, before the project was put on indefinite hold in January.
