<p>Award-winning actor and director Peter Mullan is to make a film about Hurricane Katrina.</p>
<p>The disaster that struck New Orleans in 2005 devastated the city and left more than 1,000 people dead.</p>
<p>Mullan, who made his name in Ken Loach&#8217;s My Name Is Joe, picked up the best film gong at last night&#8217;s Evening Standard awards for Neds.</p>
<p>He said: &#8220;Next up, I&#8217;m going to be writing a film about Hurricane Katrina. I&#8217;m going to be doing that and hopefully getting some acting work because writing doesn&#8217;t pay well.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a story I came across four or five years ago just after it happened. Two nurses from San Francisco were in New Orleans when it struck.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mullan, who won the best actor award at the 1998 Cannes Film Festival for My Name Is Joe, said the story would &#8220;raise issues of individualism and collectivism&#8221;.</p>
<p>The aftermath of the hurricane on the southern US city has already inspired a hit US television show, called Treme, which will be on Sky Atlantic later this year.</p>
