Ralph Fiennes is being talked about for the part of the hedge fund villain John Veals, but the author will say only: "He'd be a good choice but it's much too early days to talk seriously about casting." It isn't likely to be screened until 2011.

Kurzbeschreibung
Structured like a thriller, A Week in December takes place over the course of a single week at the end of 2008. Set in London, it brings together an intriguing cast of characters whose lives apparently run on parallel lines but — as it gradually becomes clear — are intricately related. The central anti-hero, John Veals, is a shadily successful and boundlessly ambitious Dickensian character who is trading billions. The tentacles of Veals’ influence encompass newspaper columnists, MPs, businessmen, footballers, a female tube driver, a Scottish convert to Islam, a disaffected teenager, and a care worker, whose different perspectives build up a tale of love, family and money as the story builds to its powerful climax.
dann überleg ich mir mal die englische ausgabe zu holen.
