In Time (ex Now, ex I'm.mortal)

[Kanon]

Andrew Niccol (Gattaca, The Truman Show, La Terminal) anda coqueteando con estudios para que le produzcan su nuevo guion I'm.mortal, que va a dirigir.

La historia está ambientada en el futuro no muy distante, donde el gen del envejecimiento ha sido apagado. Para evitar la sobrepoblación, el tiempo se ha vuelto la moneda y la forma en que la gente paga por lujos y necesidades. Los ricos pueden vivir para siempre, mientras el resto intenta negociar su inmortalidad.

El protagonista es un joven pobre que encuentra una fortuna en tiempo, aunque demasiado tarde para evitar que su madre muera. Termina escapando de una fuerza policial corrupta conocida como "time keepers".

Parece que apunta a filmar a mitad de año.

Se ve interesante... con algunas reminiscencias a Logan's Run, pero como negocian con el tiempo? llevan relojitos de arena en la billetera?

Sep, no entendí muy bien... Pensé que sería mas lógico que el tiempo sea el bien, y que lo tenes que ir pagando, pero no es lo que dice ahí... Debe ser que tenes como un 'crédito' de tiempo, y que lo podes canjear por otras cosas, que se yo...

Seyfried to star in 'I'm.mortal'
New Regency sci-fi pic to be distributed by Fox

Amanda Seyfried wants to become immortal.

The actress is set to topline New Regency's sci-fi action thriller, "I'm.mortal," from writer-director Andrew Niccol. Twentieth Century Fox will distribute the film, also described as an action love story.

"I'm.mortal" revolves around a society in which aging stops at the age of 25--meaning that every role in "mortal" will be played by actors in their mid-20s.

New Regency picked up the high-priority project this spring. Niccol is expected to begin lensing this year.

Eric Newman and Marc Abraham are producing via their Strike Entertainment. Strike's Kristel Laiblin is exec producing.

In "I'm.mortal," time has become the currency. Once you turn 25 and your aging gene turns off, you must buy and bank time. If you are rich enough, you can live forever. But if you run out of time, you are engineered to die automatically.

When a rebel from the ghetto is falsely accused of murdering a wealthy man for his time, he is forced to go on the run with a beautiful, rich hostage (Seyfried). Together, this duo rages against the system, living minute to minute. They discover that love is more powerful than all the time in the world.

Seyfried ("Mamma Mia!") stars in Warner Bros.' upcoming "Red Riding Hood," from director Catherine Hardwicke. She was last in theaters with "Letters to Juliet" and "Dear John."

Lead male hasn't yet been cast.

The male lead in "I'm.mortal" hasn't yet been cast.

Niccol's previous directing/writing credits include "Gattaca" and "Lord of War." He also wrote "The Truman Show."

"I'm.mortal" isn't the only sci-fi film project broaching the subject of a future where people don't age, causing issues of overpopulation.

A remake of "Logan's Run" has been in the works for more than a decade at Warner Bros. That film focuses on a man trying to escape a mandatory death sentence on his 30th birthday.

"It's a strange casting process. Even for a small role like a priest or a pawnbroker, where you would normally cast a 75-year-old character actor, I have to find a 75-year-old character actor in a 25-year old body," Niccol told Daily Variety.

Seyfried is repped by Innovative Artists.
