‘I’ll Be Watching’ Stalks “The 100” Stars Eliza Taylor & Bob Morley
” The 100″ leads Eliza Taylor and Bob Morley have been set to star in sci-fi thriller I’ll Be Watching, Deadline reports ahead of the EFM where it’ll be repped by IuviT Media Sales.
“Taylor will play a woman trapped in her isolated new home who becomes caught in a fight for survival.”
Morley will play her tech expert husband.
Supporting cast includes David Keith (An Officer And A Gentleman, Firestarter, Curse), Bryan Batt (12 Years A Slave, Darlin’) and V/H/S favorite Hannah Fierman.
Produced by Benacus Entertainment in association with RNF Productions, the project is being directed by Erik Bernard (Free Dead or Alive). Script was penned by Sara Sometti Michaels (St. Agatha) and Elisa Manzini (Angel Baby).
The film is currently shooting in Atlanta, Georgia.
From director David Ayer (Suicide Squad, Fury), Heart of the Beast will hit theaters on September 25 from Paramount Pictures, and GQ shares first look images this week.
In the film, a former Army Special Forces soldier and his retired combat dog attempt to return to civilization after suffering a catastrophic accident deep in the Alaskan wilderness.
Brad Pitt stars in the survival thriller Heart of the Beast, with J.K. Simmons (Whiplash) and Anna Lambe (“True Detective: Night Country”) also starring.
Cameron Alexander wrote the screenplay for Heart of the Beast. Academy Award winner Mauro Fiore (Avatar, Spider-Man: No Way Home) serves as director of photography.
“I’ll just be really honest: it made me cry,” Ayer tells GQ of the script. “Reading the script, it’s like a tone poem, in a sense. It’s so sparse—just a guy, a dog, mountains, and the calamities and triumphs that unfold, but what’s fascinating about the script is they’re constantly rescuing each other. It’s not like a guy and his pet—they felt like co-equals in this story. Brad wanted to be No. 2 on the call sheet, and rightly so. There was just something profound in the script. It felt like a study in grief, in healing, and of the human heart. So I had to do it.”
Ayer promises, “Don’t worry, the dog lives.”
