Miles Chapman wrote the original script, with Jason Keller doing a rewrite--that follows Ray Breslin (Sylvester Stallone), the world's foremost authority on prison structural security. His skills are put to the test when he is framed and put in a high-security prison of his own design and must find the person who put him there.
Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Church, a complex inmate who fights to keep the prisoners from losing their humanity in their darkest hour as they struggle together to stay alive.
Amy Ryan is set as the female lead in the action pic. She’ll play “Stallone’s business partner and potential love interest.” Vincent D'Onofrio, is in line to play the deputy director of the Prisons Bureau. He convinces Stallone’s character to do one last job before he retires (of course) Vinnie Jones is set in a villainous role as a “ruthless guard with no moral compass who enjoys making life difficult for the protag.” Jim Caviezel plays the warden of the prison. 50 Cent AKA Curtis Jackson co-stars
Mikael Håfström is directing.
Mark Canton, Randall Emmett, George Furla, Robbie Brenner and Kevin King-Templeton will all produce.
Production is underway in New Orleans.
