More train action from Pelham 123’s director

Mar 30th 2009 By Total Film

Fresh from making hijacked subway train thriller The Taking Of Pelham Tony Scott 123, Tony Scott is looking to get back on the rails for Unstoppable.

Pelham (below) - see the trailer here - finds John Travolta's criminals taking over a subway train. The new drama finds a runaway train carrying toxic chemicals on a collision course with a city.

An engineer and his conductor are the rail officials charged with trying to prevent a terrible accident.

Race To Witch Mountain scribe Mark Bomback is working with Scott to get the script shaped up to shoot later in the year.
