Elijah Wood to star in thriller 'Grand Piano'
14 May 2012
Pianists make scintillating subject matter for filmmakers –
see: The Pianist, The Piano et al – and now Grand Piano, a thriller starring
Elijah Wood as the piano-playing protagonist, is slated for creation later this
summer, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The film, described as ‘Speed but with a piano’ features
Wood as a once-great concert pianist who has developed crippling stage fright.
After spending five years away from the stage, he returns to perform at a gala,
only to discover a threatening note on his music sheet. Wood must then play to
save both his own life and his wife’s.
Eugenio Mira will direct, working from a script by Damien
Chazelle, and Buried team Rodrigo Cortes and Adrian Guerra are involved as
producers.
