David Oyelowo And Wife Star In New Hollywood Movie, ‘captive’ by ITSAWRAPWORLD: 1:18pm On Sep 23, 2015



Nigerian born British actor, David Oyelowo and his wife, Jessica are cast of a new America action movie, Captive which tells the true story of a fugitive. Oyelowo plays Brian Nichols, a criminal who escapes from the courthouse during a rape trial to go on a killing spree while trying to escape. Captive also stars Kate Mara, Michael Williams, Leonor Valera. Captive is an adaptation of Asley Smith’s Unlikely Angel which is a true life story of Brian Nichols who in 2005, killed a judge, a journalist and two police men while trying to evade justice but was eventually nabbed 26 hours after and sentenced to life imprisonment in 2008.

Captive also features Fantastic Four and The Martian star Kate Mara as Ashley Smith. As a recovering meth addict, she regularly attends support groups, though she’s struggling to maintain a job, having already lost her daughter to the system. Meanwhile, there’s Brian. He discovered he had a baby son after he was sent to prison for rape. In a desperate attempt to see his son, he broke out of jail, killing the judge presiding over his trial, a court reporter and a sheriff’s deputy. Later on, he added a federal agent to his kill list. While on the run, though, he kidnaps Ashley inside her own home, but in the emotional turmoil of this event, they both turn to The Purpose Driven Life. Rick Warren’s bestselling self-help and religious book seeks to answer the question, "Why are we here?" It’s by reading this aloud that both Brian and Ashley face their own crossroads.

The film is based on the novel Unlikely Angel: The Untold Story of the Atlanta Hostage Hero written by the real-life Ashley with help from contributor Stacy Mattingly. Oyelowo said earlier this year that he was happy to continue his relationship with Paramount, the studio that distributed Selma, with a story about how a broken spirit is mended by an unlikely source of hope. Boardwalk Empire’s Michael K. Williams, Mimi Rogers, Jessica Oyelowo and Leonor Varela also star in Captive.

The movie hits the cinemas tomorrow, September 18, 2015....
