Quote:

Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg are partnering again as Hanks has become attached to an untitled thriller set during the Cold War that Spielberg is eyeing to direct for DreamWorks. Marc Platt will produce with Spielberg, with Matt Charman penning the script. Hanks would star as James Donovan, a prominent American attorney enlisted by the CIA during the Cold War to slip behind the iron curtain to negotiate the release of a pilot captured when his U-2 spy plane was shot down over Russia. Hanks, repped by CAA, is currently shooting the indie “A Hologram for the King.” DreamWorks declined to comment.
