Inspired by true events, the story follows a young surfer (Hutcherson) who visits his brother in Colombia and falls madly in love with a beautiful local girl. Their romance seems idyllic until he meets her uncle, Pablo Escobar (Benicio del Toro).
The film is NOT an Escobar biopic, but rather something closer to the way Idi Amin was the dominant but not the central character in "The Last King of Scotland."
Italian actor turned filmmaker Andrea di Stefano ("Life of Pi") wrote the script and will make his directorial debut.
Dimitri Rassam will produce the movie
An eleven-week shoot kicks off in March in Panama.
