Empire have just posted a fantastic new featurette that takes us behind the scenes of director Tony Scott’s new film UNSTOPPABLE, which hits cinemas on November 24th (UK).
The feature shows the British director setting up a huge action sequence where they actually derailed a train for real. Great to see one of our most successful helmers at work. We can’t wait to see this!
Inspired by actual events, “Unstoppable” is an adrenaline rush fueled by director Tony Scott’s signature mark of propulsive action rooted in the reality of ordinary people placed in extraordinary circumstances. A veteran train engineer (Denzel Washington) and a young conductor (Chris Pine) race the clock to stop an unmanned runaway train – effectively a missile the size of a skyscraper — and prevent disaster in a heavily populated area.
