Joseph Gordon-Levitt will play Edward Snowden
Oliver Stone, winner of three Oscar awards, in recent years has been trying himself in the field of documentary filmmaker. It began with three films about Fidel Castro (“The Commander”, “In Search of Fidel”, “Castro in the Winter”), but now he has moved from the history of Latin America to the history of the USA. The “Untold Story” of this country is perhaps one of his most interesting works.
But in this case we are talking about a film with a political context, which Stone has a great many.
The film tells about the former contractor of the National Security Agency, who told the world about mass surveillance programs for US citizens. The script for the film by Oliver Stone wrote on the basis of the books of Luke Harding "Files of Snowden" and Anatoly Kucherena "Time for an octopus".

Filming will begin in January next year. They will work with the studios Open Road and Endgame, because the film needs independence from political pressure.
In 2013, Edward Snowden made public a huge amount of information about mass surveillance. After that, he spent about six weeks at Sheremetyevo Airport (if he was there, of course), and eventually received political asylum in Russia, which shocked the US government to the very depths of the soul. Now Snowden allegedly lives in Moscow, but where exactly it is unknown. And the Americans are looking for him in order to inflict a court on charges of, in fact, "selling the motherland."
