Details are extremely sketchy at present, but the news just in is that Morgan Freeman has signed up for Focus Features' Down To A Sunless Sea. David Gleeson (The Front Line) wrote the screenplay.
We know it's an action movie, but it seems unlikely that Freeman is taking the Taken route and breaking out a set of skills for the lead. Although that should totally happen. Rather, it's being touted as along the lines of Air Force One. Does that mean Freeman is playing a president again?
Freeman's company Revelations is producing the project, along with Bruce Cohen (Silver Linings Playbook). There's no director yet named, but Gleeson has been known to shoot his own scripts in the past. We'll next see Freeman in the no doubt equally action-packed London Has Fallen, out in January.
