Sony Pictures Entertainment has acquired the film rights to journalist Glenn Greenwald's book about former US intelligence contractor Edward Snowden, recruiting producers of the James Bond franchise to bring the story to screen, the studio said on Wednesday.
Snowden, 30, who disclosed details of the US National Security Agency's surveillance programs to news media last year, has been granted asylum in Russia and risks being arrested and extradited if he sets foot in any US-allied country. Greenwald was one of the first journalists to report on Snowden's leaks in Britain's Guardian newspaper and won a Pulitzer Prize along with documentarian Laura Poitras for their work covering Snowden on the run. Greenwald's book, "No Place to Hide: Edward Snowden, the NSA, and the US Surveillance State," came out on Tuesday and explores his involvement and work with Snowden to report on the NSA's intelligence-gathering activities.
