Gould to direct own script
June 19, 2000 - By Dave McNary
Billy Baldwin and Elizabeth Mitchell ("The
Linda McCartney Story") will head the cast of indie cop thriller
"Double Bang," due to begin principal photography today in Los
Angeles.
Baldwin, whose credits include "Backdraft,"
"Sliver" and the upcoming "Relative Values," portrays
a police officer seeking to avenge the death of his partner by entering
the world of corruption and murder. Mitchell, who has also appeared in
"Frequency" and the upcoming "Nurse Betty," will play
his love interest.
Heywood Gould will direct from his own script,
adapted from his novel by the same name. Gould's previous writer/director
work includes "One Good Cop," "Trial by Jury" and
TV movie "Mistrial." His writing credits include "Cocktail,"
"Fort Apache: The Bronx" and "The Boys From Brazil."
"Double Bang" is being financed by
Yoram Pelman's Tomorrow Films. Pelman, whose credits include "The
Lesser Evil" and "Til Human Voices Awake Us," is producing.
The project has been packaged by Paradigm, which reps Baldwin, and Mitchell,
who is managed by Seven Summits.
