The Wrap are reporting that Stephen Dorff (Public Enemies) is in advanced talks to join Maria Bello (Downloading Nancy) in the indie-thriller Carjacked. Bello’s publicist has already confirmed her involvement.
Carjacked was penned by Michael and Sherry Compton, with Peter Medak, whose recent work has been mainly in US TV, but has UK films The Krays and Let Him Have It as well as Species II under this belt, is attached to direct.
Carjacked centers a single mother and her child who are carjacked by a thief who has no intention of letting them go.
Gold Rush Entertainment and Mass Hysteria Entertainment will co-produce the film, with filming expected to commence next month in Louisiana.
Stephen Dorff, who’s currently on a career-comeback, will next be seen in Sofia Coppola’s Somewhere, while Maria Bello can be seen in Shawn Ku’s Beautiful Boy. Both of which are due to open towards the end of 2010.
