"Choke."


  

          

Book was written by Chuck Palahniuk (Fight Club).

Screenplay written (took over 5 years) by Clark Gregg (Magnolia, State & Main, The Usual Suspects, etc).

Cast includes Anjelica Huston, Sam Rockwell, Isiah Whitlock Jr., & Brad William Henke, to name a few.

Saw the Private Screening at Sundance and it is a great, great, great adaptation. Perfect for me. Sam Rockwell & Anjelica Huston were perfectly cast and the adaptation by Clark is stellar.

Heard that release date will be August 1. First preview clip available here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kH1p5OnsEYA

Also, Clark Gregg is really, really amicable and kind and good-natured. I enjoyed my conversations with him immensely, and he worked hard to be loyal to Chuck's work.

*Bonus info - Chuck has a very small cameo!
