Atlas Shrugged - Who's in the Movie? Great question....

"Atlas Shrugged is...a liberation of the human spirit. That’s what I get from making the movie. And that’s what I want people to get from watching it.” 

-John Aglialaro, producer and screenplay writer for the movie adaptation


I was just taking a quick look at the progress of the movie.  It appears that filming ended back in July and that the movie is in "production" mode.  It is expected to be released in 2011.  


I don't recognize any of the actors or actresses.  That could be a good thing - especially if the movie does well in spite of the lack of a marquee name.  I have high expectations for the movie.  I believe it will fundamentally change the way many Americans look at our country - and that it will spur a great deal of change.


You can contribute to the project (indirectly) by creating a character page for the Internet Movie Database website at

This is the link for the Hank Reardon character page.
