You'd figure that after One Battle After Another flopped at the box office Hollywood would pivot away from politically charged movies. Nope, make another Oscar-bait movie, win a bunch of awards even thought the movie stank, enjoy the smell of your own farts and keep on think that what you're doing is important.
The drama surrounding this movie getting made will be better than anything they put on screen.

The currently untitled film will follow the early life of a cop who goes on to be caught up in the January 6th Capitol riots. Penn has scripted and will direct the movie, which has five-time Oscar nominated actor Bradley Cooper in talks to star in the lead role.
