Ronson's book to hit big screen
Jon Ronson's acclaimed book, Them: Adventures with Extremists will be adapted for the big screen. Edgar Wright, director of Shaun of the Dead will direct the big screen adaptation.
Jon Ronson, a journalist and broadcaster, wrote his book based on his encounters with Ian Paisley, conspiracy theorist David Icke, Muslim fundamentalists and the Klu Klux Klan, and his investigations of the Bilderberg Group, the publicity-shy group which gathers politicians, business leaders and media barons for a summit each year.
Variety reports that the film is described as "one woman's journey to unmask the secret rulers of the world".
School of Rock Stars, Jack Black and Mike White will produce the film, with Mike White also writing the script.
