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.
Steven Spielberg was due to helm the biopic but left the project earlier this month, He decided to move on because his vision of this movie would not mesh with the budget. DreamWorks also pulled out leaving the project solely in the hands of Warner Bros where Eastwood makes his films.
Cooper remains attached to star and produce the pic.
There's no production schedule yet.
