For those of you who haven’t heard of STRETCH, it is Joe Carnahan‘s (SMOKING ACES, NARC) latest film baby with an all-star cast including Patrick Wilson, Chris Pine, Jessica Alba, Brooklyn Decker, Ed Helms and Ray Liotta. The story centers around a chauffeur (Wilson) who picks up a difficult and devious billionaire (Pine). As the night goes on, their interaction leads to dangerous encounters. While it was originally slated for March, Universal dropped it like a hot potato and it’s been struggling to find a distributor ever since. Now Carnahan is taking to Twitter to get the word out there and create a following.
Check out some pictures:
You’d think a cast like this would be a no-brainer publicity-wise, but I suppose Universal felt differently. Regardless, we’ll get the movie sooner or later, although I’m unsure if a Twitter following will help at all. Stranger things have happened, though. If you had asked me if a VERONICA MARS film would have been a thing, I would have laughed in your face . . . and then hugged you, because I’m a fan. Here’s hoping someone gets this picture to theaters, stat!
STRETCH will HOPEFULLY see a release sometime in 2014.
