New Pics of Oliver Stone’s ‘Snowden’ with Joseph Gordon-Levitt
New set pics have emerged from the Oliver Stone film Snowden, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Edward Snowden, the CIA employee who leaked thousands of classified documents to the press and is currently in hiding. The film is currently shooting in Hong Kong with an expected release date of December 25, 2015. This puts Gordon-Levitt right in the mix for Best Actor Oscar consideration and with his other film later this year, The Walk, he could have the visibility and diversity that he needs to get that buzz. Interestingly enough in both films, Gordon-Levitt plays the main character of the Oscar-winning documentaries that preceded them (Citizenfour in 2014 and Man on Wire in 2008).
The film also stars Oscar winner Melissa Leo (The Fighter) as Citizenfour producer Laura Poitras (for which she won an Oscar) and Zachary Quinto as Glenn Greenwald, the columnist from the Guardian US with whom Snowden revealed most of his findings to and sat down for interviews with to create the film Citizenfour.
He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Critics Choice Association (CCA), San Francisco Bay Area Film Critics Circle (SFBAFCC) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
