Jacob Elordi In Talks For Ridley Scott’s ‘The Dog Stars’
'The Dog Stars' has Jacob Elordi circling the lead role initially set aside for Paul Mescal, we've confirmed. Ridley Scott is still set to direct.
Set in a near future where an unnamed pandemic has decimated American society, the film will have him playing Hig, a civilian pilot living a lonely life on an abandoned Colorado airbase with his dog and a tough ex-marine. When a random transmission beams through the radio of his 1956 Cessna, the voice ignites a hope deep inside the pilot that a better life exists outside their tightly controlled perimeter. Mark L. Smith (The Revenant) and Christopher Wilkinson (Ali) penned the script for the film, which Scott is expected to pursue on the heels of a Bee Gees pic for Paramount.
