Rosamund Pike May Travel To "The Mountain Between Us"

THR reports that Gone Girl star Rosamund Pike is in negotiations to join the romantic drama "The Mountain Between Us".


Based upon the Charles Martin penned novel, the story follows a female writer (Pike) heading off to get married and a doctor (Charlie Hunnam) returning home from a medical conference. After their flight is cancelled, the strangers agree to charter a ride only to see the pilot suffer a heart attack and crash into a desolate snowy mountain. The doctor is an avid climber and he struggles to help get her down from the mountain in harsh weather.

Michael Fassbender was attached to play the doc but has dropped out of the project. Margot Robbie was tipped to play the writer but has plenty to keep her busy

Gerardo Naranjo ("Miss Bala") was initially set to call action. Now Hany Abu-Assad ("Paradise Now") will call action.

J. Mills Goodloe and Scott Frank wrote the adapted the script.

Peter Chernin, Dylan Clark David Ready and Jenno Topping will produce the film.

 Production hopes to begin late in 2015 once Hunnam wraps director Guy Ritchie's "Knights of the Roundtable: King Arthur" for Warner Bros and Pike gives birth.
