Steve Wiebe gives update on movie status, discusses relationship with Billy Mitchell

NL: You also mentioned that there were plans for a fictionalised Hollywood version of King of Kong; do you know what’s going on with that?

SW: The last I’ve heard about the King of Kong remake is that the script was going through a rewrite. It should be done soon if it hasn’t been finished yet.

NL: What’s your relationship with Billy Mitchell like these days? Have you two made peace?

SW: Billy and I have met up at a few publicised events over the last few years and he has been cordial. We shook hands and took pictures. Beyond saying hello, we haven’t engaged in any lengthy conversations, but I don’t feel there is any animosity towards me. I definitely wish him well and hope things continue to smooth over as time goes on.
