First look: On the Set of 'The Tourist'
Friday, January 26, 2007
By Karen Valby
It took more than four years for The Tourist — a psychological thriller
starring Hugh Jackman and Ewan McGregor — to emerge from the noirish shadows
of development hell. In 2002, producers began working on the story of an
everyday number cruncher (McGregor) who gets ushered into the underground
world of New York sex clubs by a charismatic colleague (Jackman). It bounced
from Revolution to MGM before finally dead-ending at Fox. "If you look at
Fox's slate, they've got tent poles and comedies," says the film's producer,
Arnold Rifkin. "But this is not a movie where you go get popcorn three times."
Enter Jackman in 2006. "Every actor wants to play the bad guy," explained a
grinning Jackman during EW's November visit to the film's Wall Street set.
"Even when my character is manipulating people, he's having a blast. I feel
like Alan Rickman in Die Hard." Once the actor joined the project,McGregor
and Michelle Williams (Brokeback Mountain) jumped aboard. Bolstered by the
star power, the producers and first-time feature director Marcel Langenegger
were able to secure independent financing. Now, says Rifkin, the
once-floundering film is being eyed by several studios — and he expects to
have a domestic distribution deal within a few weeks.
Despite the story's seemingly lurid premise, don't expect some cheap
boobs-and-babes movie. "Marcel kept telling me, 'Yes, we have to work under
the constraints of a thriller, but I'm interested in making a love story,'"
says Williams, who plays a siren bent on seducing McGregor. "And that's a
language I speak."
