According to FilmNation HOTM is in pre-production, although I’m not sure how much weight I can put on this since when clicking on “printer friendly” mode it looks like it was written on 14 November 2012 (see below) and in all honesty IMDBPro has had this in “pre production” for some time. The other thing is when I click on The Rover it states pre-production and nothing else. Anyway, I’m not trying to be a Debbie Downer – just wanted to say that I’m not sure how current the information is, but I like that the synopsis is the same as we posted here – and now I have visions of *cough* Jimmy *cough* tied up in a chair. I guess the old adage “any news is good news” applies:
“Hold On To Me
The Citizen
Director: James Marsh | Cast: Carey Mulligan and Robert Pattinson
Producers: Alexandra Milchan, Todd Field, and Indian Paintbrush’s Steven Rales and Mark Roybal | Writer Brad Ingelsby
In Pre-Production
HOLD ON TO ME is an electrifying thriller based on the extraordinary true story of a femme fatale who kidnaps and ransoms the town’s richest man. Mulligan plays Nancy, a small town girl who callously leaves her boyfriend Jimmy (Pattinson) behind to chase a modelling career in New York City, breaking his heart in the process. To Nancy’s surprise, New York isn’t impressed by her and at 26, she’s back home waiting tables at the local diner. When she gets word that Jimmy has become a wealthy and successful criminal in Chicago, she tracks him down with a view to winning his affections, only to find crushing rejection. Fuelled by jealousy and an unquenchable thirst for fortune, Nancy finds Danny, a naïve pawn she can seduce and manipulate to her own ends and together they embark on a life of crime. Success comes fast, and leaves faster but nothing and no one will stand in the way of Nancy’s naked, dangerous and deadly ambition.”
