It will focus on "JFK’s evolution from an unremarkable young man desperate to prove his mettle to his powerful father, into a WWII hero whose triumph over adversity-hardened leadership skills that forged his path to the White House."

PT 109 (1963) is the film. I wish more creative energies went into depicting other U.S. presidents that are not Kennedy or Lincoln.

Agreed. Something about someone cool like Teddy Roosevelt or even someone incompetent like James Buchanan.

I remember reading some time ago that Leonardo di Caprio was going to play Teddy Roosevelt in a biopic. I guess nothing came of it.
