Earlier today, Epic Games rolled out patch v11.50 for the battle royale which, while not adding anything immediately of note, appears to be packed with references to upcoming content. As usual, data miners have wasted no time in pulling apart the game’s files in order to learn more, having returned from their latest deep dive with the first look at Chapter 2, Season 1’s final event. In a blog post released last month, Epic confirmed that a new two-week long event would precede the arrival of Chapter 2, Season 2 and it appears we now have a name for the occasion.

The world's biggest actress and the world's biggest director are teaming up for a new movie.

Deadline reports that Jennifer Lawrence and Steven Spielberg will collaborate on an adaptation of "It's What I Do: A Photographer's Life Of Love And War," the memoir of Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Lynsey Addario. Lawrence will star as Addario, whose book describes her work in some of the most dangerous regions of the world, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Darfur, the Congo, and Libya, and her capture by pro-Quaddafi forces in the latter country.

According to Deadline's report, the recently-released "It's What I Do" was a hot commodity in Hollywood when its rights became available, and several other star-studded teams were vying for the property. Lawrence and Spielberg reportedly beat out the likes of Reese Witherspoon, Margot Robbie, George Clooney, and the team of Darren Aronofsky and Natalie Portman for the project.

Warner Bros. Pictures is closing a deal to produce a film adaptation of Lynsey Addario's memoir "It's What I Do: A Photographer's Life Of Love And War".

Steven Spielberg is attached to direct, Jennifer Lawrence to star and Andrew Lazar to produce the project which deals with a Pulitzer Prize-winning female journalist who goes into the most dangerous places in the world in search of truth.

She explored how Afghans suffered during the Taliban regime and covered the Iraqi War, Darfur victims, mass rape in the Congo, and the Libyan civil war during which she was kidnapped by pro-Quaddafi forces.

Warners appears to have beaten out a bunch of bidders for the project with other major names linked to those potential versions including Darren Aronofsky, George Clooney, Reese Witherspoon, Natalie Portman and Margot Robbie.

As the sands slowly shift for that Chris Pratt/Indiana Jones affair that we’d be secretly okay with, another potential project for Spielberg has gained new life thanks to a deal being cut for its top star. Deadline have got word that Warner Bros. have nabbed Jennifer Lawrence to take the lead in true-life war tale, It’s What I Do, which will tell the story of Lynsey Addario, a renowned photographer whose work took her to some of the most dangerous locations in the world.

Adapted from Addario’s own book, A Photographer’s Life Of Love And War, It’s What I Do will focus on Addario’s career that took her to Afghanistan, Iraq, the Congo and Haiti to name a few. What could gain the most attention however, will be her time in March 2011, where she was held for six days in Libya, along with three other journalists.

Here's a pair who haven't yet worked together. Steven Spielberg looks like he's set to direct a new movie starring Jennifer Lawerence. The project that currently has them both attached is It's What I Do: A Photographer's Life Of Love And War. That's unlikely to be the ultimate movie title, but it's the name of a memoir by Lynsey Addario.

Due for publication at the end of the month, the book tells the real-life story of war photographer Addario as she seeks to photograph modern battles, both before and after conflict strikes. Not only did she fight into a profession generally deemed to be male-dominated, she also has taken pictures of war in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Darfur and the Congo. Her desire: to show the truth about war.

Jennifer Lawrence is being eyed up for a starring role in a new war film from Steven Spielberg.

According to Deadline, Warner Bros is set to close a deal for Lynsey Addario's memoir It's What I Do: A Photographer's Life of Love and War.

Bidders including Working Title and The Weinstein Company have apparently been fighting for the novel's rights after an excerpt was featured in The New York Times Magazine.

Addario, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, shares her experiences from within Afghanistan after 9/11 in the memoir.

The journalist looks into how Afghans suffered during moments such as the Taliban regime and the Iraqi War, and also details the time she was kidnapped by pro-Gaddafi forces.

Warner Bros has also lined up Andrew Lazar to produce the movie alongside Spielberg, should it secure the rights.

Pairing Steven Spielberg and Jennifer Lawrence, the biggest A-list director and arguably the biggest A-list actress today, seems like a no-brainer no matter what they’re working on. But with a property as hot as Lynsey Addario’s memoir, It’s What I Do: A Photographer’s Life of Love and War, it’s got prestige and awards pedigree written all over it.

Deadline is reporting that Lawrence is attached to star in the Spielberg directed project for Warner Bros., and that the pair beat out other actresses bidding for the project from Reese Witherspoon, Natalie Portman, Margot Robbie and from directors such as Darren Aronofsky and George Clooney.

Addario has taken photos for everyone from AP, New York Times, Time, National Geographic, and Newsweek, and she’s been to Pakistan, Afghanistan, Israel, and Libya, where she was kidnapped along with three other colleagues, to name just a few of...

A film project with a compelling subject matter – the life experiences of a war photographer – that boasts Jennifer Lawrence is something that in itself would provoke plenty of interest from studios.

That's because she has agreed to be a part of the upcoming war film It.s What I Do, a film that is in the works with none other than Steven Spielberg attached to take the helm.

Addario is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist whose work took her to the most hostile regions on Earth.

Some of her stories centered on genocide victims in Darfur, Afghans under the Taliban’s thumb and victims of rape in the Congo. Perhaps the most compelling and harrowing chapter of Addario...
