Variety reported that Oscar nominee Catherine Keener (Being John Malkovich, Capote) is going to play Tom Hanks‘ wife in CAPTAIN PHILLIPS, directed by The Bourne Ultimatum helmer, Paul Greengrass

Based on the true story and ordeal of Captain Richard Phillips.
The project is housed at Columbia Pictures.
Richard Phillips “captained the MV Maersk Alabama which, in April of 2009, was hijacked by Somali pirates. Phillips bravely offered himself as a hostage to protect his crew and spent three days a prisoner before being rescued by a team of U.S. Navy SEALS.”
Wow! Now that’s a hero! the kind that can only be played with justice by a great actor like Hanks.
The film itself is based on Phillips memoir A Captain’s Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALS, and Dangerous Days at Sea
