Oliver Stone has a long history of producing films based on political leaders (ex: Nixon and JFK), and has just decided not make a film regarding Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. after his script was rejected again. 

Stone was receiving a lot heat for attempting to make a new controversial movie based on King Jr. because of his elevation of the great minister's lifestyle.

"The script dealt w/ issues of adultery, conflicts within the movement, and King's spiritual transformation into a higher, more radical being," wrote Stone on Twitter on January 17.

The film director expressed his viewpoint on why his film will not be produced.  

"I'm told the estate & the 'respectable' black community that guard King's reputation won't approve it. They suffocate the man & the truth," continued Stone on Twitter.

Stone wanted to include in the film, which would have starred Jamie Foxx, that the FBI apparently spied on the late civil rights leader when he was allegedly with other woman that were not his wife.

"Martin, I grieve for you. You are still a great inspiration for your fellow Americans-but, thank God, not a saint," wrote Stone via social media.

The filmmaker has reservations if DreamWorks and Warner Bros decide to make the film with another director.

"I wish you could see the film I would've made. I fear if 'they' ever make it, it'll be just another commemoration of the March on Washington," wrote Stone.
