It’s no secret anymore: Sony Pictures Entertainment made the first move on a potential Edward Snowden movie, optioning rights to No Place to Hide, the new book by former Guardian columnist Glenn Greenwald, whose reporting on the NSA leak won the newspaper the Pulitzer Prize.

The book debuted worldwide on Tuesday under the full title No Place to Hide: Edward Snowden, the NSA, and the U.S. Surveillance State. It's Greenwald’s personal account of his reporting on the revelations contained in Snowden’s NSA leak.
