A film on everyone’s favourite search engine ,Google, and its founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, is in the making. Groundswell Productions, who made the Sean Penn-starrer ‘Milk’, had acquired the rights to Ken Auletta’s book, Googled: The End Of The World As We Know It, which would be the basis for the screenplay, Deadline reported online.

The film will looks at the two men’s ethos on how money can be made ‘without doing evil’. “It’s about these two young men, who created a company that changed the world, and how the world in turn changed them. The heart of the movie is their wonderful edict — don’t be evil. At a certain point in the evolution of a company so big and powerful, there are a million challenges to that mandate. Can you stay true to principles as you become as rich and powerful as that company has become?,” asked Producer Michael London.
