Tony Scott's Hell's Angels is Actually Sonny Barger's Story

[speed]

I remember it like it was yesterday. The news that Stephen Gaghan and Tony Scott were adapting Hunter S. Thompson's seminal work Hell's Angels for the big screen. Well, it seems that that isn't entirely accurate. Here are the facts: Stephen Gaghan is indeed writing the screenplay for a film to be directed by Tony Scott. That film is to be titled Hell's Angels. However, this Hell's Angels adaptation is in no way connected to Hunter S. Thompson's book of the same name. Instead, Hell's Angels is the adaptation of Sonny Barger's autobiography Hell's Angel: The Life and Times of Sonny Barger and the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club.

I've got to find a book signing or an appearance of Sonny. Meeting him & shaking his hand is on my bucket list
