Serious Side

Brendan Fraser is set to join Harrison Ford in the drama "Crowley " says Production Weekly.

Directed by Tom Vaughan, the film is based on the true story of John and Aileen Crowley whose two children had a rare genetic disorder. Rather than give up hope and believe that nothing could help his kids, the couple found a researcher (Fraser) with a potential cure.

Robert Nelson Jacobs adapted Geeta Anand's book The Cure
