Paul Dano will play the lead in the forthcoming thriller 7500, a film which takes place entirely in a plane’s cockpit. It will be directed by Oscar-nominated short film helmer Patrick Vollrath, and produced by Jonas Katzenstein and Maximilian Leo from augenschein-Filmproduktion. They were behind Boo Junfeng‘s Apprentice which we caught in Cannes back last May (it’s excellent).
According to Deadline, 7500 is described as “a nail-biting thriller” ‘which takes place completely in the airplane cockpit during a normal commercial flight from Berlin to Paris. The story follows co-pilot Tobias Ellis (Dano) whose smooth flight is interrupted by screams which can be heard from the cabin. A group of young men then try to enter the cockpit armed with glass bottles and he might fight and then negotiate with his attackers for the sake of all on board his Airbus A319.’
Shooting is set to start this summer in Germany.
