Could there be a DOUBT movie?

It seems like the new craze now with film-makers is turning Broadway plays into movies (History Boys; Frost/Nixon is coming up next year). I would love to see a "Doubt" movie; how about the rest of you? If so, who do you think would be good in the parts?

Great; now I feel stupid Embarassed . Though, somehow it's nice to know that Hollywood execs are on the same page as me. But all the same, I should have done a little more research before starting this thread, and I sincerely apologize for that.
