In All the King’s Men, Boss Willie Stark (Sean Penn) is a southern politician who is known for appealing to the every day man. His impressive rise in popular opinion starts to fall as he drowns in dirty politics and becomes corrupted by the system. Jack Burden (Jude Law) is a once idealistic ex-reporter who feeds Stark's fire of crooked political ambitions.

Filmed in New Orleans, Louisiana, this film is based on the novel by Robert Penn Warren. All the King's Men is a remake of the 1949 movie which won three Oscars including Best Supporting Actress (Mercedes McCambridge), Best Actor (Broderick Crawford) and Best Picture. Steven Zaillian, one of the writers for Schindler’s List, will serve as the director.
