Is It Going To Be A Pop-Up Book?

Oh, this is not going to end well.

It looks like Sarah Palin may be ready to tell her remarkable story in print.

The former GOP vice presidential candidate has apparently enlisted the help of superstar Washington attorney Robert Barnett, who has brokered book deals for such political A-listers as President Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Additionally, he has handled TV deals for a lot of top anchors and reporters such as Brian Williams, Lesley Stahl, Neil Cavuto, Christiane Amanpour, and Dr. Sanjay Gupta.

More from The Hollywood Reporter.

I'm not entirely sure that Palin has got what it takes to write a great book about the life of a politician. Of course, there are plenty out there that would love to ghost write this one for her.

I'm not sure how well Palin would fare on television. We all know she can be quite the train-wreck. But, I'm thinking something involving pregnant teenagers, their boyfriends having to field-dress a moose, all in some kind of Hollywood Squares setting.

Preacher Man

The Hollywood Reporter brings good news for comic fans. Vertigo's PREACHER series could be coming to a theatre near you:

Created by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, "Preacher," which ran from 1995-2000, told the story of a down-and-out Texas preacher possessed by Genesis, a supernatural entity conceived by the unnatural coupling of an angel and a demon.

Given immense powers, the preacher teamed with an old girlfriend and a hard-drinking Irish vampire and set out on a journey across America to find God -- who apparently had abandoned his duties in heaven -- and hold him accountable for his negligence.

Getting a "Preacher" project off the ground has long been a favorite among the comic book literati in town, though none has been blessed to see completion. The project was previously set up as a one-hour series at HBO but was put into turnaround. Mark Steven Howard wrote a pilot which Howard Deutch was attached to direct.

A previous movie version, to have been produced by Kevin Smith's View Askew, among others, got to the casting stage, with James Marsden attached for the title role and a reported budget of $25 million.

The new "Preacher" has no writers on board, though Mendes will lead the search while putting the finishing touches on his drama "Revolutionary Road, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet and due Dec. 26.

It's great to see that PREACHER has a solid, serious director in place. While Constantine was a fun film, I'm looking for PREACHER to be even better.

Also, Mendes is no stranger to adaptations. He also directed the adaptation of the graphic novel Road To Perdition.
