Cage and Stone in 9/11 film

« | »

Oliver Stone is to direct a film starring Nicolas Cage as one of two police officers trapped in rubble after the 11 September attacks on New York. Oscar-winning actor Cage will play Sgt John McLoughlin, who was trapped following the collapse of the twin towers with officer William J Jimeno. Paramount Pictures said it expects to release the film in 2006. "It's an exploration of heroism in our country - but it's international at the same time in its humanity," Stone said. More than 2,700 people died when hijacked planes collided with New York's World Trade Center on 11 September 2001. [photo: Laura Farr - Corbis]
