According to Deadline‚ the team is shaping up‚ with Eiza González announced as part of the cast today‚ joining Natalie Portman (pictured above in Thor: Love and Thunder)‚ John Krasinski‚ and Domhnall Gleeson on the call sheet. The movie‚ which has a script from James Vanderbilt (Zodiac‚ the last two Scream films) centers on “estranged siblings‚” played by Krasinski and Portman‚ who find themselves involved in a global heist to uncover the Fountain of Youth that actually keeps people young. Well‚ maybe. The brother and sister must “use their knowledge of history to follow clues on an epic adventure‚” according to Deadline‚ which gives me strong National Treasure vibes‚ something I’m far from complaining about. The search for the fountain of youth also gives me whiffs of 2021’s The Jungle Cruise‚ starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt. (Side note: Blunt and Krasinski are married; could she have told her husband that all the best movies include the search for a mythical fountain that will make people immortal? Also‚ will this upcoming movie feature a rendition of Bob Dylan’s “Forever Young?” It will be a lost opportunity if not. Hire me Hollywood!) To give you another sense of what Fountain of Youth will be like‚ none other than Guy Ritchie (The Man From U.N.C.L.E.‚ Aladdin‚ 2009’s Sherlock Holmes) will be directing the project. No news yet when the film will find its way to a theater near you. The post <;em>;Fountain of Youth<;/em>; Film Picks Up Natalie Portman‚ John Krasinski and Eiza González appeared first on Reactor.
