How is he filling it? Well, by producing and starring in an adaptation of the Marcus Sakey thriller “Good People”. The novel centres on Tom and Anna Redd, who find 0,000 and then go to extreme lengths to try to keep it.
This sounds a little like the Raimi directed (and Bill Paxton/Billy Bob Thornton starring) A Simple Plan, though this time the director will be Niels Arden Oplev, who directed the original adaptation of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.
With Maguire producing, we’re assuming he is eyeing the role of Tom Redd. We have no more news on casting or when the production will kick off, but of course you’ll hear as soon as we do.
Thanks to Production Weekly for the initial news and to Coming Soon for a bit more background info.
