Julia Roberts has agreed to produce a movie based on the life of George Mallory, the famed explorer who died trying to climb Everest in 1924. Shekhar Kapur<\/a> is directing (via Variety<\/a>).

Given how rich Mallory's life was, it's surprising that this is the first time Hollywood is going all out on a feature film. A new biopic, the Wildest Dream<\/a>, with Conrad Anker and Leo Houlding recreating key moments of Mallory and Sandy Irvine's fateful climb, comes out this August.<\/p>\n
