Hollywood has never been shy about exploiting disasters, be they caused by man or nature, but even fifteen years after the events of 9/11, there's still a certain amount of trepidation felt when it comes to movies centered around that tragic day. If there's one person who can be counted upon to lend credibility and thoughtfulness to a film about 9/11, it's just got to be Charlie Sheen. Right?
Based on Patrick Carson’s stage play Elevator, which is itself adapted from actual events, the upcoming Martin Guigui film stars Charlie Sheen as one of five passengers trapped inside an elevator in the North Tower. After two terrorist-hijacked planes strike the World Trade Center, these five strangers must fight against all odds to escape before the unthinkable happens. Check out the recently released trailer for 9/11, which never stops trying to let you know that it's a serious drama.
Well, that's certainly something. I'm not even sure what to say about that. 9/11 also stars Whoopi Goldberg (TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES), Luis Guzmán (KEANU), Gina Gershon (SHOWGIRLS), Wood Harris (CREED), Jacqueline Bisset (THE DEEP), Olga Fonda (REAL STEEL), and Bruce Davison (X-MEN).
9/11 is set for a September 8, 2017 release.
