- A LONG WAY DOWN
Filming has commenced on director Pascal Chaumeil’s
(Heartbreaker) adaptation of the Nick Hornby novel A Long Way Down.
The story revolves around a group of strangers who
coincidentally meet on the top of a London skyscraper on New Year’s Eve where
they individually had gone to commit suicide.
The four strangers make a pact to stay alive until Valentine’s Day at
least, and the story follows this group of unlikely friends “as they try to
pull back from the brink.”

The four central strangers are played by Brosnan, Collette,
