Schwarzenegger Eyeing For THE TOMB


Wow, looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger is going to have his hands full. Shortly after announcing his acting comeback in the animated series THE GOVERNATOR, he is being tapped to star in Kim Jee-Woon's (I SAW THE DEVIL) thriller LAST STAND.

But according to Variety, Schwarzenegger is actually making up his men whether he wants to pursue on LAST STAND or that Summit Entertainment's THE TOMB.

For THE TOMB, director Antoine Fuqua and Bruce Willis were in talks to direct and star. While Fuqua has now reportedly set to direct after all, it remains a question whether Bruce Willis still in the running or not.

THE TOMB involves a prison security expert named Ray Breslin, who is specialized in designing impenetrable prisons. However, when he gets framed and is sent to the prison he helped design, he must find a way to break out and track down the man who set him up. Miles Chapman and Jason D. Keller wrote the screenplay for the movie.

As for LAST STAND, Schwarzenegger is yet setting up a meeting with director Kim Jee-Woon for any discussion. And for THE TOMB, the movie might be delayed further since Fuqua will likely helming TUPAC this summer. Logically speaking, that will make LAST STAND a foremost choice for Schwarzenegger.
