Lads,No, not the signature coffee from Tim Horton's...
The Emperor of Schmaltz has two epics coming out this year, including "War of the Worlds" with Tom Cruise, but the more interesting picture is due out on December 23 (just in time for Oscar consideration) and is going to be his take on the Munich Massacre.
Eric Bana (of the Hulk, Troy, BlackHawk Down) as the lead.

Follow Ups:
he can pull off with that theme (can't wait!)A far better story would be the one post-Munich where an Israeli counter-terrorist squad tracked down the 11 Palestinians involved in the massacre, killed 8 of them, two "disappeared" and one died of natural causes
No more Black September
Grin,There was a version of George Jonas' book "Vengeance" done a number of years ago and it sucked. I have an autographed copy of the book (read it so many times, the pages started falling out) and it covers the Wrath of G-d teams sent out by Golda Meir post-Munich.
Steven Bauer (from Scarface) is Israeli, so he looked the part. The rest of the cast was iffy.
Eric Bana could easily pass as Israeli.
I'd like to see a film about the 6-Day war that isn't schmaltzy...including old footage of Arik Sharon, Mofaz, Peres, and Nasser.
Entebbe has been done far too many times. The Israeli film is the best version.
