Hugh Jackman, Lee Daniels

Lee Daniels is nominated for Precious but I doubt his name will be the one in the envelope this Sunday, I think he knows it too because speaking to USA TODAY,  he’s not stressed out about getting ready for Oscars because he’s too busy working on his next project, the desegregation movie titled SELMA and he revealed Hugh Jackman is attached to star…

“I had to do a lot of homework on the script, and I spent a lot of time writing. I feel like I’m caught up a little bit with that,”
“I have to really start casting the movie because we’re shooting it soon. The only person I’ve nailed in for sure is Hugh Jackman.”

Previous rumor said Robert De Niro might play pro-segregation Alabama governor George Wallace but that might not be the case anymore
The movie will focus much on President Lyndon B. Johnson and the situation that led him to change his position from being reluctant to signing the Civil Rights act.
