The Big Short writer to pen a movie about Megyn Kelly and Roger Ailes
Variety reports that The Big Short scribe Charles Randolph is most likely set to pen a new script about another long-time institution that was supposedly “too big to fail”: ousted Fox News head Roger Ailes. Randolph recently sold a pitch for a film about Ailes, and the multiple Fox News employees who have accused him of sexually harassing them over the course of his long tenure at the network, to Annapurna Pictures. The film will also focus on Megyn Kelly, the network’s most prominent female voice, whose silence on the Ailes allegations has been a frequent source of speculation.
