Don’t expect to see President Obama in Zero Dark Thirty—the soon to be released film about the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. According to USA Today, “The makers of a film say President Obama won't be a character in it. "There's no political agenda in the film -- full stop -- period," says Mark Boal, the screenwriter for Zero Dark Thirty, which is set for release in December. "A lot of people are going to be surprised when they see the film," Boal told Entertainment Weekly." For example, the president is not depicted in the movie. He's just not in the movie." Instead, Zero Dark Thirty will focus on military and intelligence officials involved in the raid that killed the al-Qaeda leader. More from the Oval.
