Galt’s Gulch Green Light! I just heard that Atlas Shrugged, Part 2 is set to start filming in April [1], with a fast-tracked (pardon the pun) release date in October, 2012. Presumably to get it in theaters before Election Day in the United States. For some reason they are re-casting the film. I should mention that I found the first film (Part 1) [2] was fairly loyal to the original novel [3], and worth watching. (Thanks to Jim M. for the link. )
