Idris Elba and Sam Worthington have been added to the cast of “Alive Alone,” joining Noomi Rapace.
Marking the directorial debut of Khurram Longi from his own screenplay, the film is set to shoot in New York City in March.
Elba will star as Jamal, an ex-detainee of Guantanamo Bay working as a taxi driver, and Rapace will play Sarah, a prostitute on the run from a feared crime boss. When their worlds collide, they unexpectedly find salvation in each other. Worthington (Avatar, Clash of the Titans, Terminator Salvation) will play the crime boss Murphy.
Thunder Road’s Basil Iwanyk is producing with Rapace acting as exec producer. Michael Benaroya’s Benaroya Pictures is financing.
