Steven Spielberg is rounding out the large cast of his Abraham Lincoln biopic, DreamWorks' Lincoln. Tommy Lee Jones and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, along with Hal Holbrook, James Spader, John Hawkes, Tim Blake Nelson, Bruce McGill and Joseph Cross are in negotiations to join the pic. David Costabile, Byron Jennings, Dakin Matthews, Boris McGiver, Gloria Reuben, Jeremy Strong and David Warshofsky are also in negotiations to board the movie. Lincoln, which sees Daniel Day-Lewis as the 16th president of the United States and Sally Field as his wife, Mary Todd, is based on Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin and adapted by Tony Kushner. Jones will play Thaddeus Stevens, a Republican leader and congressman from Pennsylvania. Stevens was a staunch supporter of abolishing slavery and was critical to writing the legislation that funded the American Civil War. Gordon-Levitt will take on the role of Robert Todd Lincoln, eldest son of President Lincoln and the only one to live past his teenage years. The other actors will make up the supporting roles in this telling of Lincoln's journey to abolish slavery and end the Civil War. The project, which will shoot this fall in Virginia, is eyeing a late 2012 release via Disney's Touchstone label. Jones will be seen in July release Captain America: First Avenger, while Gordon-Levitt will shoot The Dark Knight Rises this summer. Both are repped by CAA.

This movie sounded boring as eff but with this cast it's really becoming awesome.
Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

Does this mean he's having a threesome with Peter Jackson and George Lucas?

O.

Sources? My pants need sources in order to cream themselves.

Edit: I did some looking around and it seems legit, unless proven otherwise.

Also, he apparently hasn't broken character since March. "Word around town is that DANIEL DAY-LEWIS hasn't broken his Lincoln accent since March. His real name doesn't even appear on the call sheet." @TheInSneider
superb

It's probably Vincent Froio.

As obligatory as this joke has become, it will never, ever get old to me.  Ditto any references to "scoreless".
