Amanda Seyfried could make a movie about her mowing the lawn in a clown costume and I would watch it. Lately she has been hitting gold with romance films, but not satisfied to keep churning those out she is going with high concept spec science in Andrew Niccol’s I’m.Mortal.
The Wrap says that Fox will release Niccol’s latest, “which takes place in a society where people stop aging at 25-years-old and time has become the currency, meaning the rich are immortal while the rest of the population struggles to survive.”
“When a rebel from the ghetto is falsely accused of murdering a wealthy man for his time,” The Wrap adds, “he is forced to go on the run with a beautiful hostage (Seyfried). Together, they rage against the system, living minute to minute, and discover that love is more powerful than all the time in the world.”
Aww…. I was all interested up until that “love is more powerful” sappy crap. Seriously? They are going to take this high concept film and make this society killer actually be LOVE??
Make it about how aging is beautiful and a part of life.
I know I can’t wait for a little extra padding in the belly and a receeding hairline! Huzzah! Its already here!
Still, its got Seyfried in it and I am all about that.
