<title>Morgan To Tackle Tony Blair Again</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="morganp.jpg" src="/fishbowlla/files/original/morganp.jpg" width="125" height="159" class="alignleft" hspace="8/" /><strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Peter-Morgan-profile.html">Peter Morgan</a></strong> &#8212; whose &#8220;Frost/Nixon&#8221; is not only filling theaters around the country but is in line for plenty in the statuette department (as in Golden Globes and Oscars) &#8212; is setting up his next politco project which looks to create (or re-create, as it were) the &#8220;Special Relationship&#8221; between former British Prime Minister <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Tony-Blair-profile.html">Tony Blair</a></strong> and departing U.S. President <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/George-Bush-profile.html">George Bush</a></strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117997432.html?categoryId=2554&amp;cs=1&amp;nid=3078">Variety</a> reported on what will be the third film by Morgan about Blair. Previously, he had written &#8220;The Deal&#8221; about Blair&#8217;s stratospheric rise in British politics, followed by &#8220;The Queen&#8221; about the thorny relationship with <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Queen-Elizabeth-II-profile.html">Queen Elizabeth II</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Without trying to be too much like <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Oliver-Stone-profile.html">Oliver Stone</a></strong>, Morgan takes on Brit politics without the sledgehammer approach that Stone is so often fond of when it comes to things political.</p>
<p>Morgan will rely on actor <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Michael-Sheen-profile.html">Michael Sheen</a></strong>, who is gaining amazing fame as David Frost in &#8220;Frost/Nixon, to take on the Blair role. He played Blair in both earlier incarnates about the PM.</p>
<p>Bush is still a question mark. But Morgan, as he&#8217;s directing as well, could always at least approach <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Josh-Brolin-profile.html">Josh Brolin</a></strong>, who did stellar work as Bush in Stone&#8217;s &#8220;W.&#8221;</p>
