LETTERS LIVE: http://letterslive.com/

On July 18 of 1969, as the world waited anxiously for Apollo 11 to land safely on the surface of the Moon, speechwriter William Safire imagined the worst case scenario as he expertly wrote the following sombre memo to President Nixon's Chief of Staff, H. R. Haldeman. Its contents: a contingency plan, in the form of a speech to be read out by Nixon should astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin become stranded on the Moon, never to return, followed by some brief instructions relating to its broadcast. Luckily for all those involved, the memo was never needed.

Benedict Cumberbatch reads the memo for LETTERS LIVE.

ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION)

STORY: Award-winning actor Benedict Cumberbatch, the lead in the Oscar-tipped "The Imitation Game", says the film's World War Two story still resonates strongly today.

"The Imitation Game", a biopic about British mathematician and code-breaker Alan Turing, which also stars Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode and Charles Dance, has earned rave reviews and made millions of pounds at the U.K. box office.

In the film, Turing is the brilliant mathematician at Bletchley Park who deciphers the German Enigma code, helping to bring the conflict to an end. He took his own life at 41 after he was convicted for being a homosexual. Turing received a posthumous royal pardon in December 2013, but many believe more should be done to remember his part in the war effort.

Jude Law is about to add a whole lot of magic to his life!

According to Variety, the star has been picked by producers to star as Albus Dumbledore in the sequel to 2016's "Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them."

Dumbledore is considered one of the most iconic and beloved characters in J.K. Rowling’s wizardly book series. Richard Harris made the role famous in the first two “Harry Potter” films before passing the torch to Michael Gambon after his death in 2002.

Director David Yates told Variety, "Jude Law is a phenomenally talented actor whose work I have long admired, and I’m looking forward to finally having the opportunity to work with him."

Jude did beat out some strong competition for the role. Christian Bale, Benedict Cumberbatch, Mark Strong, and Jared Harris were all considered for the sought-after part in the "Harry Potter" spinoff.

The film will follow Dumbledore’s life long before the wizard became the headmaster at Hogwarts School and Harry Potter’s mentor.
