According to "Deadline" two popular and beloved British stars Colin Firth and Emily Blunt could soon star together. They will
star in an untitled comedy written by Becky Johnston (THE PRINCE OF TIDES, SEVEN YEARS ON TIBET), in which Colin Firth will be a man who hates his job and is hated by his ex-wife and son. Feeling he missed his one shot at living the dream, he fakes his death and buys a new identity. Along the way he meets a woman (Emily Blunt) who is also trying to leave her past behind. The pair break into empty homes and pose as the absent owners. The two find a kinship despite all the lying.
Now, this is quite a strange twist to the classic story I must say: based off characters from the J.M. Barrie famous story, a new
thriller PAN will see Aaron Eckhart and Anna Sophia Robb portraying Hook and Wendy, although they will not be the same characters from the storybook. Hook is actually a modern-day detective, tormented by a kidnapper. Wendy is the lone survivor of this kidnapper, who leaves an asylum to help Hook track him down. Sean Bean is also a part of this cast in which he will take the role of Smee, the head detective who is Hook's only friend on the police force.
