‘Slumdog’ Director Danny Boyle’s New Film is ‘127 Hours’
Slumdog Millionare director Danny Boyle has officially taken on a new project called 127 Hours.
Fox Searchlight and Danny Boyle have firmed plans to make their next collaboration “127 Hours,” a film that tells the story of mountaineer Aron Ralston.
Boyle will direct the film, with production to begin next year for a late 2010 release. Pic is financed and distributed by Searchlight in partnership with Pathe.
Ralston’s right forearm got pinned for nearly five days under a boulder during a climb in Utah in May 2003. He used a dull knife to amputate the limb, then scaled a 65-foot sheer wall and hiked out before running into a family that gave him water and food. He was finally rescued by helicopter.
Anything Danny Boyle makes I will watch. He’s one of very few filmmakers that I would say that about, he’s consistently great. I’m sure he’ll bring this story to life in a great way. I’m still hoping he’ll be attached to direct the next Bond film in late 2010.
