It was announced on Wednesday that ?LBJ? starring Woody Harrelson as the titled character, has landed a November 10 release from Dean Devlin?s Electric Entertainment. The film follows Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson ( Woody Harrelson) after he loses the 1960 Democratic presidential nomination to Senator John F. Kennedy (Jeffrey Donovan) and agrees to be his young rival?s running mate. But once they win the election, despite his extensive legislative experience and shrewd political instincts, Johnson finds himself sidelined in the role of vice president. That all changes on Nov. 22, 1963, when Kennedy is assassinated and Johnson, with his devoted wife Lady Bird (Jennifer Jason Leigh) by his side, is suddenly thrust into the presidency.
