$\"\"$ <\/a>Not content with bringing Biblical patriarch Noah to the big screen<\/a>, Darren Aronofsky (Black Swan) may also take on Washington. George Washington, that is.<\/p>\n

Variety reports<\/a> that the director is attached to produce and direct a project based on the Father of Our Country and General of the Revolutionary War.<\/p>\n

Plot details are being kept under wraps, but sources tell Variety that the script is more of an \u201cUnforgiven\u201d-like tale rather than a straight historical drama.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, I\u2019m game, just as long as the General doesn\u2019t devolve in a spiral of madness as he seeks to not only dance the evil Black Swan but become the evil Black Swan.<\/p>\n

That would be a bit much.<\/p>\n
