'Tourist' time for McGregor
Ewan McGregor, Hugh Jackman and Michelle Williams have signed up to new sex thriller 'The Tourist'.
Oct 3 2006
Ewan McGregor is at it again, doing the sex thing for yet another film. The Scottish superstar, who seems to whip it out at every available opportunity (see 'Trainspotting', 'The Pillow Book', 'Velvet Goldmine', 'Young Adam' and the like for the evidence), is to star in a sexy psychological thriller entitled 'The Tourist'.
Set in and around New York's clandestine sex clubs, the film will also star Hugh Jackman and Michelle Williams, and according to Variety, revolves around 'an accounting consultant who, while passing from one job to another, meets a charismatic, womanizing lawyer who personifies everything the numbers cruncher wishes he could be. The accountant delves into an erotic world of underground sex clubs.'
Scripted by Mark Bomback, Jason Keller and Patrick Marber, production begins on October 13 with first-timer Marcel Langenegger in the director's chair.
