In an article originating from Sky News, a rumour has emerged that Steven Spielberg is being considered by Sony to direct another Dan Brown novel adaption, this time for one of his earlier books, Angels and Demons. Academy award winning writer Akiva Goldsman has already signed on to draft the screenplay but so far, neither Tom Hanks nor Ron Howard have been associated with the project - despite the main character being Robert Langdon, who Hanks played in The Da Vinci Code.
