Q. Is it true that Oliver Stone is making a movie about the presidency of George W. Bush? - N.F.

A. No; Stone, who has ventured into presidential films before with JFK and Nixon, is making a film about Bush, but it’s about his formative years, not his presidential ones. Josh Brolin has been chosen to portray W., with Elizabeth Banks as Laura, Ellen Burstyn as his mother, Barbara, and James Cromwell as George H.W. Bush. The film starts shooting later this month, and Stone has promised to have it in theaters in time for the election.
