Salt and Rabbit-Proof Fence director Philip Noyce is set to make a sci-fi drama called Timeless, with Liam Hemsworth now officially on board as the lead…
His brother Chris may be well known for waving his hammer about in Thor, but younger sibling Liam Hemsworth will get a couple of blockbusters of his own this year, if all goes well, with The Hunger Games and The Expendables 2.
Meanwhile, director Philip Noyce, who brought us 2010’s marvellous action flick, Salt, has hired Liam to star in his next film. Called Timeless, it’s a sci-fi drama about a chap who builds a time machine to visit his wife, who died years before. The script’s by Bill Kelly, who wrote the Sandra Bullock paranormal thriller Premonition, and the 2007 fantasy, Enchanted.
Given Noyce’s talent for drama, with The Quiet American and Rabbit-Proof Fence being among his most acclaimed films of recent years, Timeless could be well worth looking out for when it emerges next year. Another great time-travel movie to place alongside Primer, Time Crimes and Back To The Future? We certainly hope so.
Shooting commences on Timeless in July. More news as we get it.
