BREAKING: The prospect of Mikael Hafstrom directing Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Tomb–something Deadline floated in early January–has now become fact. And just in time for Berlin. The drama, backed by Emmett/Furla Films and Summit Entertainment, puts action heroes Stallone and Schwarzenegger back together after Expendables 2. In the drama that was scripted by Miles Chapman, got a rewrite from Jason Keller and now has Chapman working on the latest draft with Hafstrom, Stallone plays a man who has designed a high-tech prison that is said to be escape-proof. When he is set up and sent to the prison he created, he essentially must go up against himself to escape and find retribution. Schwarzenegger plays a fellow inmate a complex guy whose tough exterior hides the reality he’s an okay guy who fights to keep the prisoners from losing their humanity.
The pic’s produced by Atmosphere’s Mark Canton, Randall Emmett, George Furla, Robbie Brenner and Kevin King-Templeton. Emmett/Furla is financing and Summit holds worldwide distribution rights and will release in North America.
Hafstrom’s credits include last year’s The Rite and 2007′s 1408 and he’s repped by WME and Management 360.

If he breaks out then his jail wasn’t full-proof — thereby negating him as a mastermind architect and making him just a lousy hire. The states hire people like this everyday.
Next.
I hear the original screenplay was titled Grumpy Old Men 3.
ROID RAGE RANGERS
A better name would be, “Old Man Escape”
Summit Entertainment? Mike, don’t you mean Lionsgate? It’s still unclear how this is going to work.
Sounds like this could be promising in any case.
I’m pretty sure 20th and the creator of Prison Break should be compensated for this.
Right, because Prison Break holds the copyright for any movie or TV show that involves a prison escape. That makes sense. Don’t know how this will turn out, but a teaming up of two big action stars still sounds fun. In!
Maybe there will be sudden political help to help the prison escape like when then gov. schwarzenegger commuted the sentence in half of a murderer right before leaving office like a little snake because the murderer’s dad was a political buddy and never even alerted the devastated parents or family of the victim as required by law. How do you people in business with him even look at yourselves in the mirror? Besides all the other crap – what a piece of human trash and you think people will actually buy tickets to this?
Couldn’t agree with you more. The man is a despicable piece of trash. I hope Karma truly is a bitch.
You said it. The governator lost what was left of his humanity when he bowed to his political crony and that will forever be his “legacy”.
It just seems more and more we’re returning to the days of Menachem and Yoram.
in your dreams, pal.
Dumb and Dumber meet at the Big House.
This marks the first of many future producer collaborations between “Doug Butabi” and “The Kid”. Reminds of me early Peter Guber/Jon Peters with a splash of Bruckheimer/Simpson.
It does when the architect of the prison lands inside the same big house he designed.
Good for them. Hope I can be in an action film when Im 60+. very cool!
RED is the perfect example of an action film with and for older folks and general audiences. RED is well written, well acted, well cast, with great action… and RED is an all around fun film.
Who has the cameo as a creepy pedophile with a heart of gold, Buscemi?
The director of THE RITE? Oy, this is gonna be a Suckfest. Dump Arnie and get Kurt Russell to make it an official remake of TANGO & CASH!
