Stars Delving into the Online Casinos
The US online casino gambling industry is in for a lot of extra publicity once
Hollywood steps up to the plate and launches the newly planned movie that will
be written from the those who brought fame to the poker industry with “Rounders.”
The new movie is set to specifically focus on the internet gambling industry and
Leonardo DiCaprio has attached himself to the project. Right now, the US ban on
offshore online casinos is one of the hottest topics grabbing the global
industry and there has been a lot of heated debate all over the world as the
Obama Administration continues to delay with the needed repeal of this act.
There is a lot of sympathy in the US right now for the online casino gambling
industry and for those US citizens who are being stripped of their personal
freedom to gamble in the privacy of their own homes by the UIGEA. “Rounders” was
an acclaimed project that did an excellent job of balancing the glitzy and
glamorous side of gambling with the very real underbelly of the industry. The
new movie will likely have that same gritty feel in the portrayal of online
casinos as realistically as possible.
The movie is still in the development phases and there hasn’t yet been a script
released, but the online casino gambling industry remains really positive that
the writing team will give a fair portrayal of the gambling sites and the
industry as a whole because of their work on “Rounders” in addition to the
“Ocean’s Thirteen” script. |
