Lena Dunham Will Write Film Adaptation of Michael Lewis’s Sam Bankman-Fried Book

Lena Dunham will write the script for a Sam Bankman-Fried movie adapted from Michael Lewis's book 'Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon.'

Lewis previously authored The Blind Side, The Big Short, and Moneyball, all of which were crafted into big-screen projects starring the likes of Sandra Bullock, Brad Pitt, Ryan Gosling, and more. It continues: “Lewis sets out to answer this question, taking readers into the mind of Bankman-Fried, whose rise and fall offers an education in high-frequency trading, cryptocurrencies, philanthropy, bankruptcy, and the justice system. Both psychological portrait and financial roller-coaster ride, Going Infinite is Michael Lewis at the top of his game, tracing the mind-bending trajectory of a character who never liked the rules and was allowed to live by his own―until it all came undone.”
