The CIA Is Investigating Kathryn Bigelow’s New Osama Bin Laden Film for Possible Leaked Classified Information
Kathryn Bigelow’s upcoming Osama Bin Laden film has a lot of people talking, but now, it may be for all the wrong reasons.
According to WorstPreviews, the Defense Department and CIA are investigating the claims of the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Peter King, who says that government officials leaked classified information on Bin Laden’s death to Bigelow for the film. King said in a statement:
“I am pleased that DoD and the CIA agree with me that potential leaks to filmmakers are something worth investigating and taking action to address…The leaks that followed the successful Bin Laden mission led to the arrests of Pakistanis and put in danger the mission’s heroes and their families.”
The film, which was being talked about even before Osama Bin Laden’s death, has Joel Edgerton, Jason Clarke and Chris Pratt on board to star.
