Leonardo DiCaprio Will Play The Beer Pong Creator In Biopic

Biopics are Hollywood’s chance to completely reconstruct a person’s life, repackage it and convince people that a historical account of that life is what they’re watching. You ever see Troy? Yeah. Exactly. Achilles didn’t like the ladies.
Yet, we still have hope there’s something substantial in a biopic because Hollywood did produce the “Coal Miner’s Daughter.” And that flick rocked. Tommy Lee Jones with red hair. Who the fuck knew? Now, Hollywood is set to release a biopic about Atari mogul Nolan Brushnell, with Leonardo DiCaprio in the starring role, which means we can expect numerous episodes of sporadic tension and belligerence.

Honestly, they’ve already given away much of the character profile by casting Leo. It’s simple: crazy, irrational, uneasy and brilliant. That’s how Hollywood will portray Nolan Brushnell. Oh, and he’ll probably be shagging someone the likes of Kate Beckinsale. Ever seen “Aviator” or “Catch Me If You Can?” It’s all the same, man.
