Hollywood has new options with Osama bin Laden's death
About three years ago, screenwriter Mark Boal became fascinated by the possibility of a movie about U.S. special forces' attempt to root out Osama bin Laden from Afghanistan's Tora Bora district.
Boal and director Kathryn Bigelow, who were collaborating on a then-little-known Iraq film, "The Hurt Locker" (for which they would both win Oscars), were intrigued both by the manhunt and the ways the terrorist leader had eluded capture.
