Could Bruce Willis be entering **The Tomb for Summit Entertainment? According to Deadline, he’s in early talks to star in the action drama, and Antoine Fuqua is considering the director’s chair.
No, this does not mean Willis is planning one of those pre-death funerals so he can have a big party and hear what people say about him after he shuffles off the mortal coil, runs down the curtain and joins the Choir Invisible.** The Tomb **follows a bad day in the life of Ray Breslin, the world’s top expert on secure structures.
Specifically, he designs prisons, learning a wide array of escape and survival skills so he can build and test seemingly perfect “supermax” jails. Which comes in rather handy when he’s framed for a serious crime, chucked in one of his own creations and must break out in order to find out who put him behind bars.
Yes, Prison Break fans, the movie you’ve been waiting for since the series got cancelled could finally be on the way! Just not how you expected it, and probably with fewer tattoos.
Writer Miles Chapman obviously spent a lot of time watching the show as he penned the script, though it’s since been through the hands of **Machine Gun Preacher **scribe Jason Keller.
This one is still in the early stages, but if Willis and Fuqua (who last worked together on Tears Of The Sun back in 2003) both sign on, Summit is looking to get it on the fast track to the screen.
