Sir Sean Connery is considering turning a novel by an Edinburgh author into a Hollywood blockbuster - reports The Scotsman.
The former James Bond actor, who earlier this week said he did not want to act again, has been in contact with Ken McClure about bringing his controversial novel The Gulf Conspiracy to the big screen.
Connery, who has been an executive producer on such blockbusters as The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Finding Forrester, Entrapment, The Rock and Just Cause, may even take on the behind the scenes role for the new movie.
The Gulf Conspiracy is a fictional thriller which centres on the theory that vaccinations were responsible for the development of Gulf War Syndrome.
Vincent Finlayson, Dr McClure's business manager, has been in contact with the Oscar-winning actor about the project.

This is amazing. I know it isn't DIRECTLY connected to James Bond, but comon, Sir Sean Connery is James Bond. It's been quite a while since Sir Sean reportedly retired from showbiz, and many fans - including yours truely - had all but given up hope. I'm glad we might be able to see Sean Connery grace the silver screen again.
