Is Justin Long "The Conspirator" Funny man Justin Long is shaking things up a little bit and going in the direction of drama. This film will offer him a chance to show some versatility and that he is more then a comedic actor. I loved him in the movie Dodge ball, Live Free or Die Hard, He's Just Not That Into You and Zak and Miri Make A Porn As the gay lover to Brandon Routh . See clip below. Justin Long is joining James McAvoy and Robin Wright Penn in "The Conspirator," the historical drama that Robert Redford is directing. "Conspirator" tells the story of Confederate sympathizer Mary Surratt (Wright Penn), who was tried as a conspirator in the Lincoln assassination, and Col. Frederick Aiken ( McAvoy ), who reluctantly agreed to defend her before a military tribunal. Long plays a soldier who lost a limb in the Civil War and is McAvoy's best friend and conscience.
