The first bit of sales art for writer/director Scott Walker’s ‘The Frozen Ground’ has appeared at the AFM ’11. The movie is based upon the true life events surrounding Alaskan serial killer Robert Hansen who was responsible for abducting more than 24 women and hunting them in the Alaskan wilderness. The movie stars Nicolas Cage (‘Season of the Witch’) and John Cusack (‘The Raven’, ‘1408’) who can both be spotted on the new teaser below. Cusack will play the role of Hansen and Cage will play the detective after him. This will be the first movie together for John and Nic since the action flick ‘Con Air’ back in 1997. Katherine LaNasa, Vanessa Hudgens (‘Sucker Punch’), 50 Cent and Richard Schiff all co-star.
“Hansen, a respected family man, systematically abducted some two dozen women and flew them into the Alaskan wilderness where he released and then hunted them. Story will follow a trooper who finds one of Hansen’s victims alive on the street who becomes the key in an unlikely partnership that brings Hansen to justice.
Hansen was arrested in 1983 and charged with four murders and, as part of a plea bargain, agreed to show police where the graves of the murdered women were. He was sentenced to 461 years in prison and is currently imprisoned at Spring Creek Correctional Center in Alaska.”
