‘Hillary’ flick saga in works

Hillary is going Hollywood.

A movie script about the wonky 20-ish Yale Law School grad who grew up to be secretary of state is being pushed toward production and is awaiting money to be green-lighted.

“Rodham,” penned by newbie New Jersey screenwriter Young Il Kim, tells the intimate, behind-the-scenes story of Bill and Hillary before they became famous.

The script shows how Hillary, drawn to Washington to work on the impeachment of President Richard Nixon, has to choose between her career and her politically ambitious Arkansas boyfriend.

Scenes include an “office flirtation” between Hillary and Bill Weld, who went on to become Massachusetts governor, Kim told the Web site Politico.

An annual poll of nearly 300 film executives voted “Rodham” their fourth favorite script last month.

Kim is repped by the big-time United Talent Agency and the “Twilight Saga’s” Temple Hill Entertainment production company is reportedly involved.

There’s no word on casting. But Hillary has said a good screen choice for her would be Meryl Streep.
