Ford, Liotta and Penn are 'Crossing Over'
New immigration drama greenlit at TWC
The Weinstein Co. has just billed a nice trio to headline their ensemble drama Crossing Over. Joining the cast are Harrison Ford, Ray Liotta and Sean Penn with The Cooler director Wayne Kramer at the helm from his own script.
The drama will cover the controversial topic of immigration and those who’ll do anything to enter the U.S. The pic will shoot in L.A. and examines illegal immigrants the way that Traffic did the illegal drug trade, with intersecting storylines threaded through the film. More cast will be added and will be shuttled in and out. Penn, for instance, has only a cameo in the film, sources said, and he’ll spend three days shooting a small role as a border patrol agent.
Ford plays an enforcement agent who stages raids designed to corral illegals, while Liotta plays a USCIS district adjudicator, a bureaucrat dealing with the problems of illegals.
An April 11 start date has already been set.
