Remember the Pennsylvania pastor who runs a militia in East Africa and is trying to kill Joseph Kony? Well, those movie rumors were true.
Gerard Butler will play Sam Childers, the machine gun preacher himself. Michelle Monaghan will play his wife, and Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace, Monster’s Ball) is directing.
Skeptical as I am of Childers’s methods, this project has potential to bring awareness of Joseph Kony and the LRA to a whole new audience. It’s hard to complain about that. Below is an interview with the man, the inspiration, Reverend Childers.
-Azy
P.s. Doesn’t a movie entitled “Machine Gun Preacher” sound like it should star Samuel L. Jackson?
