Nearly a decade after its publication in 2003, Hollywood is working on a film adaptation of Jon DeLillo's Cosmopolis (film trailer now available here). In the story, a brilliant billionaire asset manager, en route via white stretch limo to the local haircutter, finds his trip interrupted by a presidential motorcade, music idol's funeral, movie set, and violent political demonstration, and receives a number of important visitors in the fields of security, technology, currency, finance, and theory. Twilight star Robert Pattinson plays the role of the much-interrupted billionaire. The movie will most likely be coming to the theaters in the US in fall 2012.
