A24...

is making a movie about the Niemann-Carlsen incident of 2022...Title is CHECKMATE

Hi ketchuplover,

a2-a4 what kind of chess opening is that?

I wonder who they will get to play the parts.
Matt Damon for Magnus is a cert.
Maybe Jack Black for Hans.
A young handsome actor with a head full of hair to play the part of me.

I reckon it will be in a similar style to "The Hitcher" as Magnus picks up a mysterious stranger called Hans on his way along the A24 road towards a local chess event in Clapham.

Magnus played by Christian Bale, Hans played by Tom Hardy and GP34 in a surprise appearance, played by Jason Statham.
