Nearly four years after the collapse of the World Trade Centre, Oscar-winning director Oliver Stone will direct a film based on the story of two police officers who were trapped in the rubble on September 11, 2001.
Nicolas Cage will star as Port Authority police sergeant John McLoughlin, who withfellow officer William Jimeno became trapped during rescue efforts after the collapse of the twin towers. They were the last two men to be rescued.
"It's a work of collective passion, a serious meditation on what happened and carries within a compassion that heals," Stone said.
