Jim Caviezel has signed on to star in Outlander, a science fiction adventure movie that Howard McCain is directing for the Weinstein Co., according to The Hollywood Reporter. Sophia Myles and Jack Huston are in negotiations to join the cast. The story centers on a man from another galaxy who crash-lands on Earth during the time of the Vikings. By accident, he brings with him an alien predator that he must destroy with the help of a Viking tribe. McCain wrote the screenplay with Dirk Blackman.
Ascendant Pictures’ Chris Eberts, Kia Jam and Chris Roberts are producing, along with Barry Osborne. Don Carmody, Andreas Grosch, Karen Loop and John Schimmel are executive-producing. Karl Urban was at one point attached to star in the production, which was to have shot in New Zealand. Caviezel has the thriller Unknown for the Weinstein Co., opening Nov. 7, and appears opposite Denzel Washington in the Tony Scott-directed Deja Vu, which opens November 22.
