Val Kilmer, Eric Balfour, Shane West, Cam Gigandet and Arielle Kebbel have joined Silver Cord, reports Variety. Director James Ordonez is handling production through Handpicked Films and Tayrona Entertainment, based on a screenplay that he co-wrote alongside Ken Gord. The film will be produced by Michel Shane, Anthony Romano, James Ordonez, Shani Rigsbee and Gord. Jai Khanna of Brillstein Entertainment Partners and Rob Folk are exec producing.
Production is targeted for a September start and has obtained a SAG waiver.
Plot Concept: The story centers on Ordonez's brother who came back to life after being declared clinically dead on multiple occasions. The brother died in 2004. The story of a young man who is separated from the love of his life. To find her he has an Out of Body Experience but the silver cord that connects his soul with his body breaks and he is believed to be dead. In a desperate race against time his friends have less than 24 hours to save his soul before his body is cremated.
I wish Kilmer would go back to roles we actually want to see him in. He picks the weirdest roles now. Top Secret, Top Gun, Willow, Real Genius, he will never top those for me. But he could try.
Willow and Real Genius are classics. I haven't seen Top Gun for a long time, wonder if I'd still like it.
As for this, sounds really freaky and like something I'll wait for the dvd and then never actually rent because I'll lose interest in it long before it ever comes out and then I'll see it and think oh yeah what about that, but then I'll want to see something else instead and then years later I'll catch 10 minutes of it on TV and then flip to something else when the next commercial comes on.
Kilmer ran his career to the ground by being a prima donna and an asshole to people. I still like a lot of his stuff. He was awesome in Tombstone and was really good in quite a few films. Too bad when your ego gets the best of you.
This reminds me a lot of Invisible. Set amount of time to find his body to save himself and so on. Same bullshit we've seen before or at least "like" a lot of bullshit we've seen before.
Of course you will still like it, it's Top Gun. "I feel the need, the need for speed!"<BR itxtvisited="1" /><BR itxtvisited="1" />Last good thing I saw Val Kilmer in was in Entourage.
Can't believe any of you jokers didn't mention Heat! Now that's some good shit.
This does have a similar feel as Invisible and Ghost but it will all come down to execution.
What? Nobody liked Kilmer in Batman Forever?
Anyone?...Anyone?...Bueller?
