| I worked on The Post as the Script Supervisor. I wonder where you got the idea that the script has been sitting around for years. The reality is completely the opposite. Liz Hannah, who wrote the script, finished the first draft in September of 2016. Amy Pascal, the producer, was the one who got the project going. A director doesn’t greenlight. Fox is the studio and they green lit the production. Going from first draft to having the finished film showing in theaters in 15 months is practically unheard of; that’s about as “instant” as it gets in the movie business. |
