'Hobbit' star Martin Freeman is reportedly in talks to join Tina Fey and Margot Robbie for movie 'Taliban Shuffle'.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the movie is a Paramount's adaptation of journalist Kim Barker's wartime memoir and will be directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa.
The book recounts Barker's arrival as a fish out of water in Kabul, filing stories about militants, being a woman in wartime Iraq and Pakistan, and dealing with boredom interspersed with dashes of violence and the promiscuous war-correspondent culture.
Freeman will play the role of Fey's unexpected love interest, a dedicated Scottish photojournalist and Robbie will portray the role of a competing and hard-core on-air reporter.
