So what do you do when the biggest success of your career, The Matrix, is now over? Produce your own movie I guess. That’s exactly what Laurence Fishburne has decided to do. He’s going to produce and star along side of Mr. Reese Witherspoon (aka Ryan Phillippe) in Five Fingers. Cinema Confidential describes the project as:
the film “centers on an idealistic Dutchman (Phillippe) who travels to Morocco to start a food charity. Upon arrival, he’s kidnapped by a terrorist (Fishburne).”
Oh those whacky terrorists. I’ve always liked Fishburne in just about every role he’s played. But somehow since The Matrix I’ve got the feeling that he actually thinks he IS Morpheus. Does anyone else notice that or is it just me?
