Zachary Quinto, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Shailene Woodley, launched the new Oliver Stone film ‘Snowden’ on Thursday at this year’s San Diego Comic Convention.
Written by Stone and Kieran Fitzgerald, ‘Snowden’ is based on the books ‘The Snowden Files’ by Luke Harding and ‘Time of the Octopus’ by Anatoly Kucherena, bringing to the big-screen a biography of the whistle blower Edward Snowden.
The film follows Snowden, a computer professional who leaked classified information from the National Security Agency (NSA) to The Guardian Newspaper in 2013, while also dealing with his relationship with girlfriend Lindsay Mills.
“Snowden” is scheduled for release in North America on September 16.
