[AFM ’12] Poster For The Long-Gestating ‘Prisoners’!
The long gestating Prisoners is finally cast up and shooting and the film made an appearance today at the American Film Market in Santa Monica.
Warners has locked in a September 20, 2013 release for the film. Aaron Guzikowski’s dark tale centers on a small-town man who, after his daughter and her friend are kidnapped and the cops fail to solve the crime, takes matters into his own hands, holding hostage the person he suspects committed the crime. He also comes into conflict with the big-city detective assigned to the case. Hugh Jackman, Melissa Leo, Jake Gyllenhaal and Paul Dano are all starring.
