'The Hungry Rabbit Jumps' with Nicolas Cage
Franck Tabouring
Nicolas Cage is keeping himself busy these days. Just one week after boarding Patrick Lussier's 3D action flick "Drive Angry," Cage has now signed on to play the lead role in a thriller titled "The Hungry Rabbit Jumps."
Heat Vision reports Roger Donaldson ("The Recruit," "The Bank Job") will direct the film from a script by Robert Tannen. Tobey Maguire and his Maguire Entertainment will produce the project.
As far as the plot is concerned, "Rabbit" follows a man who gets involved with an underground vigilante organization after his wife falls victim to a brutal crime.
The film is set for a January shoot, right before Cage starts production on "Drive Angry." The themes of the two films are smiliar. "Angry" stars Cage as aman who's chasing the people who killed his daughter and kidnapped her baby.
I'm glad to hear Donaldson is directing this one. I very much enjoy his work, and he's got what it takes to construct a suspenseful thriller. Cage will soon be seen in "Kick-Ass" and "Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans."
