First Look at Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Snowden
Open Road Films has released the first official photo today of Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the title role of director Oliver Stone's Snowden.
The Dark Knight Rises and Looper actor portrays the whistle-blower Edward Snowden in what the studio is calling an "international thriller." Snowden leaked thousands of classified NSA documents to the media in 2013. He's currently facing a 30-year prison sentence in the U.S., although he's been granted temporary asylum in Russia.
