'American Sniper' director Clint Eastwood will be directing a movie based on Richard Jewell, a security guard who discovered a suspicious backpack in the Olympics compound.
The 84-year-old director's upcoming Jewell project, written by Billy Ray could be supported by Warner Bros and Fox Entertainment, with whom the director had always been loyal and has made movies at their place for decades, Deadline.com reported.
Jonah Hill is expected to play the role of the American police officer, who discovered backpack in the Olympic park during the 1996 games in Atlanta, whereas Leonardo DiCaprio is possible to play the role of the lawyer who helped Jewell to navigate that hell.
