This is an unholy alliance. Peter Chattaway has a post on a deal between Sony and Tim LaHaye - while it appears Sony has a good screenwriter on board, the producer and material is suspect.

I am, of course, intrigued by all of this, but needless to say, the involvement of LaHaye — who, incidentally, disowned the Left Behind movies and sued their producers (unsuccessfully) because the films weren’t as mainstream or big-budget as he would have liked — lowers my expectations considerably.

People accept this stuff as gospel truth, and it’s nowhere close.
