Denzel Washington (The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3) strolls his way off of Unstoppable, the film being spewed out of Twentieth Century Fox. Originally negotiating re-teaming yet again with Tony Scott, he jumps ship after the estimated release date and production budget took too long to gather together.
Currently onboard with the upcoming production is Chris Pine who was set to co-star alongside the actor and Tony Scott possibly sitting along in the director’s chair again. This would have been another pairing between him and Scott, working with him already in The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 and Deja Vu. Despite all of this, money issues overall prevented continuing this pairing.
Denzel’s latest role will be the title character in The Book of Eli, opening on January 15th, 2010.
