Fascinating news that Steven Spielberg has acquired the movie rights to the Guardian Wikileaks book. 

Spielberg is such a serious director, it's possible his movie might actually capture the substance of Wikileaks, and not be superficial, as, for example -- the Aaron Sorkin version of the Facebook story.  

This raises the question of who will play Julian Assange? 

I immediately thought of the guy who plays him on Saturday Night Live. 

I bet Jim Carrey will want the part. 

Who do you think Spielberg will go with?
