Summary
Based on "Atlas Shrugged," the 1957 Ayn Rand novel about a dystopian future. The book was optioned in 1992 by John Aglialoro, who paid one million dollars for complete rights to a film version. Since then, a number of false starts have plagued the project, including former plans to develop the story as a television miniseries. Aglialoro's current plan is to turn the massive novel into four features, directed by first timer Stephen Polk with a script by Brian O'Tool and Aglialoro himself.
