Caplan clocks in for 127 Hours
Collider gets the latest from Hot Tub Time Machine actress Lizzy Caplan on any other feature films that she is latching onto as of recent, and boy did they get a nice new bit of information. It just so happens that the actress is attached to the new Danny Boyle directed feature 127 Hours, but the most interesting part is what exactly her role is.:
I play Franco’s sister and most of the movie is James Franco stuck in a cave, but he has hallucinations, so there are other characters besides himself. And a boulder.
Since the feature does take place on a mountain, it’s kind of no surprise that she’d be nothing more than a figment of the climber’s imagination. The story is based on true events of a mountain climber (played by James Franco) who becomes trapped under a boulder while canyoneering alone near Moab, Utah and resorts to desperate measures in order to survive.
Already included in the cast is Amber Tamblyn and Kate Mara with John Smithson and Chirstian Colson producing. Principal photography is already underway for the production that is expected to be released sometime presumably either at the end of 2010 or the start of 2011 under Fox Searchlight Pictures.
