OWEN WILSON rechazó el papel en la película que presenta a O.J. Simpson como inocente

Owen Wilson no quiso tener nada que ver con una película que se inclina por la idea de que O. J. Simpson era inocente de los infames asesinatos del 94, rechazando una gran cantidad de dinero por el papel principal.

El director de la película parcialmente terminada -Joshua Newton- admite que pensó que Owen era perfecto para el papel del abogado Douglas McCann, pero dice que incluso ofreciéndole un cheque de $12 millones no pudo convencer a Owen a firmar.
