Elijah Wood and Nicolas Cage Team Up for THE TRUST
A new movie going into development includes the unlikely team-up of Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy) and Nicolas Cage (Leaving Las Vegas, Joe). The movie is called The Trust, and it comes from Benjamin and Alex Brewer.
The crime drama follows “two crooked cops, David Waters (Wood) and Jim Stone (Cage), who discover a hidden safe while working in the evidence unit of the police department. The duo’s desire for the possessions of the safe throws them into a deadly well of corruption leaving them fighting for their lives and questioning their every move.”
For some reason I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around the thought of Wood and Cage starring in a movie together. This could be completely awesome or an absolute disaster.
Wood recently wrapped production on Breck Eisner’s supernatural action movie, The Last Witch Hunter with Vin Diesel, Julie Engelbrecht, Rose Leslie, Michael Caine, and Olafur Darri Olafsson.
Production is currently underway on The Trust in Las Vegas, Nevada with the film set for an October 2015 release date through Lionsgate.
