Cillian Murphy is in final negotiations to co-star alongside Amanda Seyfried and Justin Timberlake in Andrew Niccol’s "I’m.mortal". The sci-fi film takes place in the not-too-distant future where time has become currency after humanity has discovered how to shut-off the aging gene. Not surprisingly, in this world, the rich can live forever while the poor barter for immortality.
“When a poor man named Will (Timberlake, who still is negotiating his deal) is suddenly given a fortune, he becomes the target of a murder investigation and kidnaps an heiress (Seyfried) while on the run. Murphy will play an officer from an organization known as Timekeepers and described as ‘precise as the time he keeps.’”
Murphy will be playing a member of a law enforcement organization known as the Timekeepers, whose character was described as, "precise as the time he keeps".
I'm.mortal comes to theaters in 2012.
