Robert Capa (1913-1954), the legendary Magnum photographer will be the subject of three film adaptations. Columbia Pictures announced that the U.S. Michele Mann, director of Public Enemies, will be responsible for a film that tells the story of the famous photographer, focusing on the novel he held for two years with fellow photographer Gerda Taro. The studio acquired the rights to the novel "Waiting for Robert Capa," Spain's Susana Fortes, and Jez Butterworth hired to do the film adaptation. On the other hand, according to The Hollywood Reporter Irish DreamTime producer, actor Pierce Brosnan, is developing a project on the Hungarian photojournalist. The producer has an evaluation contract with MGM, but is not yet defined the participation in the project studio. The realization must be given to Paul McGuigan's film "Push - The Other Side of Crime". Finally the movie "Cover in Israel," will be interpreted and directed by Yvan Attal, with Yaron argument Seelig and production of Jean-Luc Van Damme. Portray the photographer's involvement in the War of Independence of Israel in 1948. In argument, Cover falls in love with Noa, a beautiful young student of photography.
