Liv Tyler and Partick Wilson will stand on ‘The Ledge’

Liv Tyler (The Strangers) and Patrick Wilson (Watchmen) are the next two players cast in The Ledge, a thriller to come from writer-director Matthew Chapman. Already signed to the movie are Terrence Howard (Iron Man) and Charlie Hunnam (Sons of Anarchy).

The movie began filming yesterday in Baton Rouge and has one of those high concept story ideas that can be made on a lower budget. Hunnam plays a man who is standing on the high ledge of a building, preparing to jump off and kill himself. A cop (Howard) stands all those stories below, trying to calm him down and control the tense situation from becoming a tragedy. As the police officer gets to know the troubled man, he learns that the jumper believes that he has to step off the ledge by noon.

“As more and more films succumb to the visual wizardry of 3D, The Ledge explores the fourth dimension: the interior life of tortured souls hovering over the precipice of emotional nullity,” said one of the movie’s producers, Michael Mailer. “This film is the reason why I became an independent filmmaker and why I continue to suffer in the trenches of independent filmmaking.”

I hate seeing movie producers suffer in the trenches. Together we can bring about an end to this senselessness. Source(s) -The Hollywood Reporter
