The latest Indian director to make news in the Hollywood front is Vidhu Vinod Chopra. After his successful Munnabhai series Chopra is all set to make waves there as he has signed on Gloden Globe winning Oscar nominee Mickey Rourke for his next Hollywood film titled ‘Broken Horses’.
This will be Chopra’s first venture into Hollywood, and with original screenplay by Chopra himself and Abhijat Joshi of the Lage Raho Munnabhai and Eklavya fame this one is going to be Indian all the way. Although Chopra has taken a little bit of help from international script consultants of Jason Richman ,the film will be screened across New Mexico, New York and Albuquerque. There is no word whether the film will hit the Indian front and when, but it will be highly awaited.
Apparently Chopra had seen Rourke’s performance in his Gloden Globe winning role ‘The Wrestler’ and was completely bowled over. They later met up in LA and Rourke became the final choice of his movie instantly.
The film will be produced by Reliance’s BIG Pictures and executively produced by Mark Johnson (Chronicles of Narnia and The Notebook and Rainman.)
Broken Horses will belong to the gangster genre and will hit the floors soon.
