Broken

TIM ROTH JOINS BROKEN

Actor/director Rufus Norris usually plies his directing trade in the theatre, but he’s switching to film for an adaptation of Daniel Clay’s novel Broken. And he’s gathered a solid cast for the resulting drama, with Tim Roth and Cillian Murphy heading up the ensemble.

Clay’s book follows what happens when a young North London girl witness a violent attack. Though she’s not the victim, the situation leads to her life being thrown into chaos.

In addition to Roth and Murphy, the film will feature the likes of Rory Kinnear, Robert Emms, Zana Marjanovic, Bill Milner and newcomer Eloise Laurence in the role of the heroine.

Having originally been developed by BBC Films, the movie is now under the auspices of Cuba Pictures, and has been partly funded by the BFI Film Fund.

Working from a script by Mark O’ Rowe, Norris kicks off shooting later this month in London.

Tim Roth signs contract with FOX

Lie To Me star Tim Roth is staying in business with 20th Century Fox TV, the studio behind the Fox drama series, through a talent holding/producing deal. Under the pact, 20th TV will develop a new series as an acting vehicle for Roth. Additionally, the deal includes a first-look component, allowing Roth to pitch series projects to the studio that he may or may not be attached to star in.

Feature actor Roth, who made his series debut with Lie To Me, would executive produce any shows that he brings to 20th TV. The studio’s chairmen Dana Walden and Gary Newman met with Roth in New York in May, just a couple of days after Fox cancelled Lie To Me after 3 seasons, to pitch the British actor the idea of doing a new project together. Walden and Newman were in town or the broadcast network’s upfront presentations, while CAA-repped Roth was filming feature Arbitrage there. “While Lie To Me never had the opportunity to take off, Tim did a fantastic job on the show,” Walden said. “He is incredibly smart, has very good instincts and all creative executives across the board at 20th TV, Fox 21 and Fox TV Studios are excited about possibly working with him.

New Movie: Crossmaglen

There is a new movie listed on Tim Roth's iMDb page: Crossmaglen.
His role is rumored to be the one of Joe Biddle.

Summary:
IRA gunner Dermot McGarvey is a hunted man - by both the British and his own. In hiding on a Christmas Eve stakeout to ambush British soldiers, Dermot accidentally kills a mother and her two young children. This action begins a downward spiral that takes McGarvey through the no-go area of Armagh through the divis of Belfast. Who can you trust when you've run out of options? Who lives and who will ultimately die for their sins?

I suppose this sorta aligns with what he has been tweeting about, but let's take this with a grain of salt as always (: for now.
