Giamatti Mulls PKD Biopic

Paul Giamatti is in negotiations to star as SF author
Philip K. Dick in an untitled biographical movie that
his newly launched production company Touchy Feely
Films is producing with Anonymous Content, Variety
reported. 

The authorized biopic also is being produced by the
Philip K. Dick estate through its Electric Shepherd
Productions. Tony Grisoni (Fear and Loathing in Las
Vegas) will write the screenplay. 

Dick, who died in 1982, penned more than four dozen
books and numerous short stories, with at least seven
being adapted for the big screen, including Blade
Runner, Total Recall, Minority Report and A Scanner
Darkly, which is currently in theaters. 

The nontraditional biopic will interweave the prolific
author's life with his fiction and incorporate
elements of his last unfinished novel, The Owl in
Daylight. 

Producers are Giamatti plus Anonymous Content's Steve
Golin and Lenny Bekerman. Giamatti can now been seen
in M. Night Shyamalan's Lady in the Water, provides
one of the voices in The Ant Bully and will soon be
seen in The Illusionist.
