Emmerich to tackle Shakespeare next
Anonymous, the new project by 2012 and Independence Day director Roland Emmerich, posits the 17th Earl of Oxford as the real author of the Bard's works
Ronald Emmerich likes throwing punches at big targets. He subjected planet Earth to alien attack in Independence Day, stuck it in the deep freeze in The Day After Tomorrow, and gave it a thorough rinse through in last year's 2012. Now he's looking to have a pop at demolishing something else pretty substantial: the reputation of William Shakespeare.
