Ryan Reynolds gets Buried
Friday, 26 June 2009
Ryan Reynolds is to play a kidnap victim.
The 'Just Friends' star has signed up to appear in independent thriller 'Buried' as a civilian contractor who's kidnapped in Iraq and wakes to find himself buried in a coffin in the desert, armed only with a mobile phone, a candle and a knife.
'The Contestant' filmmaker Rodrigo Cortes will direct, with the script written by Chris Sparking.
Filming on the project, which is set to enter production in Barcelona this month, will be conducted entirely in Spain.
No other casting details have been announced.
As well as 'Buried', Ryan - who can next be seen opposite Sandra Bullock in 'The Proposal' - is also expected to reprise his 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' role of Deadpool in a solo spin-off movie for the character.
