    Bruce Willis Joins 'The Tomb' 

    Deadline is reporting that Bad-Ass action star Bruce Willis is in early talks with Summit Entertainment to star in the prison escape drama The Tomb.

    Willis is in talks to play Ray Breslin, the world’s foremost authority on structural security.  After analyzing every high security prison and learning a vast array of survival skills so he can design escape-proof prisons, his skills are put to the test. He's framed and incarcerated in a master prison he designed himself. He needs to escape and find the person who put him behind bars.

    The script was written by Miles Chapman and rewritten by Jason Keller, and Robbie Brenner and Mark Canton are producing, while Antoine Fuqua is set to direct.

    Fuqua made his directorial debut in 98' with The Replacement Killers, but his best work to date could easily be considered 2001's Training Day. Some of his other efforts includ King Arthur, Shooter, and his most recent flop Brooklyn's Finest.

    The studio has plans to fast track this into development, so it's likely this will be Willis' next project before beginning production on Die Hard 5 which was also previously announced.
