Matt Damon is said to be playing Robert F. Kennedy in a film that will be directed by Gary Ross and written by Steven Knight although Damon will give his final blessing when he sees the script.  The deal closed at New Regency based on the Evan Thomas biographyHis Life.

The film:

will trace RFK’s transformation from the younger brother in the shadow brother President John F Kennedy to a strong national leader in his own right before he was gunned down in 1968

I think Matt Damon is the perfect choice for this role with his handsome looks and his exceptional acting abilities. Can you see Matt in this role or do you  think another actor would better suit it?
