Pierce Brosnan's take on Robert Capa

Pierce Brosnan's production company is said to be developing a movie on the life of photojournalist Robert Capa.

According to Reuters, Paul McGuigan, director of Lucky Number Slevin, is expected to take the helm. The movie will follow the life and death of Capa, born Andre Friedmann in Budapest. Capa is most famous for his images of the Spanish Civil War and the Second World War. He co-founded Magnum Photos.

He was killed in 1954, when he stepped on a land mine while covering the Indochina War.
