Deadline.com says the film is in early stages, but Cusack and director Betty Thomas are both interested.

The as-yet-untitled Limbaugh biopic would be non-partisan. "The script would explore the rise and reinvention of American talk radio, and Limbaugh's continued influence and impact over the last three decades in that world," said a spokesman for Cusack’s production company, True Crimes Productions.

Former “Hill Street Blues” star Thomas also helmed “Private Parts,” the film about "shock jock" Howard Stern, who starred as himself.

The title should be A**hole! It's fitting that the production company is named True Crime Productions because Limpball is a true crime walking. Never much cared for Cusack anyway and now I know he'll turn my stomach too!!!
