Sly And Arnie Could Team Up Again For The Tomb

AICN reports that the Sly Stallone prison thriller The Tomb could be getting another legendary action star added to it's cast. They say that Arnold Schwarzenegger is circling another role in the movie as well. The two recently worked together on Expendables 2 and Arnold is currently wrapping production on The Last Stand. Stallone will play a high-tech prison designer who is framed and put into a prison he helped create. He tries to escape using his knowledge of the facility and figure out why he was framed. Arnold's role isn't revealed but I assume he could playing a fellow inmate.

Deadline reports that director Mikael Hafstrom is interested in helming the film. Hafstrom is best known for directing The Rite and 1408. Originally the project was set to star Bruce Willis with director Antonie Fuqua (Training Day).

Bruce Willis & Antoine Fuqua In Talks For The Tomb

Deadline reports that director Antoine Fuqua and Bruce Willis are in talks to work on the upcoming prison thriller The Tomb. I'm a big fan of Antoine Fuqua's films they always have great casts and excellent cinematography. I enjoy his crime-based films like The Replacement Killers, Training Day and Brooklyn's Finest. So a prison film sounds like it could fit perfectly with the director's style. I'm glad to see Bruce Willis banging out all these action roles before can't do them anymore. He's already lined up action films such as Red, Looper, Kane & Lynch and Die Hard 5. I think I could handle seeing Bruce doing these type of films well into his 70's similar to Sean Connery.


"Willis is in talks to play Ray Breslin, the world’s foremost authority on structural security. After analyzing every high security prison and learning a vast array of survival skills so he can design escape-proof prisons, his skills are put to the test. He's framed and incarcerated in a master prison he designed himself. He needs to escape and find the person who put him behind bars."
