No, seriously.

I meet Paul Giamatti in [the New York neighborhood] SoHo on the hottest day of the summer…He says he’d like his character to be based on Karl Rove — a seemingly bookish guy who exercises power behind the scenes. I like it. His character turns out to be way more flamboyant than Rove … but I like how our free-flowing conversation started making the character better than what is on the page.

HT: Think Progress. Here’s the trailer for the movie (I can’t wait to see it - I’m a huge fan of all three leads).
