An Exciting Prospect


Silence a screenplay adapted by Jay Cocks from the novel by Shusaku Endo is in production talks. Martin Scorsese is set to make it his and has apparently had it in his radar for around a decade. He is in talks with Graham King of GK films to make the film. Tentatively to star are Daniel Day-Lewis and Benicio Del Toro with Gael Garcia Bernal also in consideration. The story follows two Jesuit priests in their trials and tribulations as they travel through 17th century Japan looking for their mentor and spreading the Christian belief system.
