Last week I asked about the possibility of a film based on Gray Kinder's excellent book Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea about the treasure ship S.S. Central America.
David C. Klinger forwarded this information. Thanks! This is great news.

Thanks! This is great news. Liman also directed The Bourne Identity with Matt Damon (2002) and Mr. & Mrs. Smith, starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (2005). Who will star as the treasure-finders Tommy Thompson and E-Sylum contributor Bob Evans?
