Who Is John Galt? Answer: Paul Johansson

June 16th 2010 00:42
After years of planning and re-writing Ayn Rand's classic novel Atlas Shrugged has begun filming.



Paul Johansson, of One Tree Hill fame, will play the mysterious hero John Galt. Rumor is that the film has had to drastically cut out much of the novel and only has a five million dollar budget.

The lead role of railroad executive Dagny Taggart has gone to Taylor Schilling (Mercy) and the part of Henry Reardon is being played by Grant Bowler (Ugly Betty).

Michael Lerner (A Serious Man) portrays lobbyist Wesley Mouch and director Nick Cassavetes has signed on for the Richard McNamara role. Other key cast include Matthew Marsdan as James Taggart and Graham Beckel as Ellis Wyatt.


In my opinion they should wait for the right investors and make it into a miniseries.

I think song #13, "A Simple Game", (Justin Hayward vocal mix) from the album "In Search of the Lost Chord" should be considered as a part of the Atlas Shrugged movie. It fits perfectly.
