A feature film based on the September 11th terror attacks is now in the works, with two Oscar winners at the helm.
Two-time Academy Award winner Oliver Stone will direct the film which will center on the last two men rescued after the collapse of the Twin Towers.
Oscar winner Nicholas Cage will star as Port Authority Police Sergeant John McLoughlin.
Mcloughlin and fellow officer William Jimeno became trapped while they tried to rescue others from the World Trade Center.
Lieutenant McLoughlin was removed from the wreckage 22 hours after the towers fell with help from an Army Reserve captain. McLaughlin has had over 30 surgeries during his recovery. He retired from the Port Authority Police Department in June, 2004.
Paramount Pictures expects the film to be released sometime next year.
No word on what the movie will be called.
Are they for real?! :ermm: Does anyone else find this absolutely preposterous?
