Sea Friendship

After Anthony Hopkins finishes work on Thor, he and Annette Bening will team up to star in "Hemingway & Fuentes" reports Theater Mania.

Actor Andy Garcia co-stars in and is going to direct the film from a script that he co-wrote with author Ernest Hemingway's granddaughter Hilary Hemingway.

The story look at the two decades Hemingway (Hopkins) spent in Cuba fishing with his best friend Gregorio Fuentes (Garcia) aboard the Pilar, the 34 foot Wheeler Playmate boat.

The author falls in love with an Italian girl who prompted him to write perhaps his greatest book- "Old Man and The Sea." Benning will play Hemingway's third wife, Mary Welsh Hemingway.

Garcia plans to shoot along the Caribbean rim in the Summer of 2010 once financing comes together.
