28 Sep – About a month after Michelle Yeoh's Mythical Films struck a first-look deal with SK Global Entertainment's Ivanhoe Pictures, Yeoh is now working with the company to produce a movie based on the book "Billion Dollar Whale: The Man Who Fooled Wall Street, Hollywood, and the World". "Tom and Bradley have crafted a thoroughly compelling telling of this unbelievable story," said SK Global president John Penotti, as quoted by The Hollywood Reporter. "While certainly a daring work of investigative journalism, the narrative thread and eclectic characters that they so diligently chronicle make the book read like a thrilling and engrossing novel." Written by Tom Wright and Bradley Hope, the book follows the 1MDB scandal in Malaysia and focuses on Jho Low, a financer who allegedly masterminded the heist and remains an international fugitive as authorities from Malaysia, Singapore, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and the U.S. Department of Justice continue investigating the theft, which is estimated at USD5 billion dollar.
