Hanley Rewrites Volunteer



Brent Hanley (Frailty) will rewrite the upcoming SF film The Volunteer, with Nicolas Cage starring and producing via his Saturn Films at New Line Cinema, Variety reported. Sam Egan (executive producer of The Outer Limits and Jeremiah) originally wrote the script, about a man who discovers that Earth's population is replete with aliens who have taken shelter here after their home planet was destroyed, the trade paper reported.



"They're aliens, but they're essentially humans that evolved elsewhere," Hanley told the trade paper. "I found it fascinating to ask what makes us human, to ask, 'Do they have blood running in their veins, too?'"



Cage and his partner Norm Golightly are producing, along with Ovation Entertainment's Richard Lewis.

I'd watch Cage in just about anything, but if it is Scifi then all the better.
"Essentially humans that evolved elsewhere" - hmm, I wonder what this means, exactly? Makes me think of all the human-aliens in Stargate SG1.
Also, I wonder what the significance of the title is?
