新片傳聞The Day Britain Stopped

[paulik (The Rotten Age)]

WILL CATE BLANCHETT JOIN RIDLEY SCOTT TO MAKE “BRITAIN STOP”?

It’s recently been confirmed that Cate Blanchett has received an offer to
star in THE DAY BRITAIN STOPPED, an adventure thriller about a giant shipping
explosion that lead to the meltdown of Britain’s transport system. Ridley
Scott has been developing the project, and recently made headlines with his
choice of Kieran Fitzgerald to pen the script.

Ridley’s own company, Scott Free Productions, is producing along with Film
Rites, and they are working in tandem with Twentieth Century Fox. This is set
to be a huge production with or without Blanchett’s attachment, but her
talent would no doubt add another dimension to the action-adventure film that
will make it a well-rounded piece of cinema.

The story is based on a docudrama of the same name by Gabriel Range, and
explores a fictionalized disaster at the hands of the U.S. Government. Amdist
a series of explosions started by a train crash, a female captain is mistaken
for an enemy combatant and must fight to prove her innocence. The film first
aired on BBC in 2003 and was an instant hit.

Blanchett is still hot off her Oscar win for “Blue Jasmine” in 2013, and
recently starred in “The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug” and “Monuments
Men.” She has four films in post-production, including a live-action version
of Disney’s “Cinderella” in which she plays the wicked stepmother, and
another 8 films currently in development.

Ridley Scott, Steve Zaillan, and Michael Schaefer are producing, along with
Elishia Holmes and Garret Basch executive producing. Kira Goldberg is
overseeing for Fox.
