Ew.com reports that Elizabeth Banks will portray Laura Bush opposite James Brolin, who will portray Bush. James Cromwell is said to be in talks to portray George H.W. Bush. There have been no announcements as to who will play vice-president Dick Cheney.
Stone is well-known for making films that normally have to deal with conspiracy theories, and ones that are typically anti-government. His most famous film in this category is "JFK," which dealt with the conspiracies floating around about who really shot the former U.S. president.
Stone has said that "W" will not be a controversial movie, but rather one that looks at how Bush went from a college party boy to the leader of the free world. He also said that it will be "a fair, true portrait of the man."
Shooting is set to begin late next month.
