A new movie version of George Orwell’s famous novel 1984 may be in the works, with artist Shepard Fairey possibly in the role of producer, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Fairey was working with Brian Grazer and Ron Howard of Imagine Entertainment to secure the rights to the novel from Orwell’s estate. When they learned Julie Yorn of LBI Entertainment was simultaneously working towards the same goal, they decided to approach the project together, according to the Reporter.

The group is currently looking for writers before approaching a studio, according to the entertainment industry website.

Fairey is a graphic and graffiti artist who was first known for his iconic Andre the Giant posters in the skateboarding and graffiti communities before the world came to know him as the man who was sued by AP for his poster of Barack Obama.

1984 tells the story of a dystopian world that is perpetually in a state of war. Individual freedoms are suppressed in order for the upper political class to retain control of the population. Protagonist Winston Smith works at the Ministry of Truth revising newspaper articles to align with the regime's current political outlook, but beneath his outward allegiances to the regime he experiences personal conflict.

The novel was first published in 1949. The most recent film version came out in 1984, according to the Reporter.

Do you have the link where Ron Howard is talking about the Illuminati? This would greatly be appreciated!

Awesome they are remaking 1984! Just in the nick-of-time too! Don't think Ron Howard is in the club. My feeling is he is showing us and educating us. I've seen Ron Howard in interviews, he's talked about Illuminati, Free-Masons etc. However Shepard Fairey, one of the producers is the artist that created this image and was subsequently sued by the Associated Press.

+1984 was written by a new world order loyalist and he has given us a glimpse of how it will be in the future except it will be much worse!

Hollywood is one of the greatest tools of mass propaganda and hypnotic mind control ever created. If Tv has a trance like effect with HD and all the improvements made ion the past 5 yrs. The BIG screen is even greater. The fascination people have with movies like 1984 on the screen i think is if it is in a movie it can't possibly ever be real. When we try to tell people it is real and happening right now we are dismissed as loons and coo coo's. All the while there new world order moves forward.  What happened to little Opi from Maybeery? Is he a new world order loyalist?
