ETA Sept 16 – It looks like there may be two movies called The Courier that are being produced for release next year. The original description seems to be the Jeffrey Dean Morgan movie and the movie about the terrorist plot seems to be another film. That’s good, since the original story sounds more interesting!
ETA: Okay I found another description that combines the 2 plots. I’m just going to link to it since it’s a lot more descriptive than the synopsis I posted. And it seems the script was re-written by the new writer listed on IMDB.
Scene magazine plot description for The Courier
I checked IMDB and it looks like there’s a change in the plot of The Courier. It also lists a new writer who wasn’t announced before. This is what the IMDB now says:
An unsuspecting courier has been the messenger between terrorist cells. Unfolding a plot to bomb a building he teams up with a cop and uses his knowledge of the Big Apple to stop the bombing.
This is the description we saw last week:
The story centers on a courier (Dean Morgan) who has taken on improbable missions and never missed a drop. He’s hired to deliver a briefcase to a notorious underworld figure that can’t be found. The courier finds himself pursued by corrupt cops, double-crossing feds and rival crime bosses.
So which description is the correct one? Which one do you prefer?
