'Avatar' Star Sam Worthington Joins Russell Crowe in 'The Georgetown Project'

Post the record-breaking Avatar, actor Sam Worthington has certainly had a pretty good career graph to be happy about. And even if it wasn't, he will be reprising his role in the upcoming sequel to the film, Avatar 2 and possibly in Avatar 3 too. Apart from all this, the actor is now all set to be a part of Miramax's upcoming thriller called The Georgetown Project.

Apart from Worthington, David Hyde Pierce will also be a part of the film alongside the legendary, Russell Crowe. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Being written and directed by Joshua John Miller and M.A. Fortin (Queen of the South), the film follows troubled actor Anthony Miller (Crowe), who begins to unravel while shooting a supernatural horror film. His estranged daughter (Ryan Simpkins) wonders if he’s slipping back into his past addictions or if there’s something more sinister at play.

Worthington and Pierce's roles haven't had too many details revealed as of yet. It was recently announced that Simpkins and Chloe Bailey had joined the cast, with Bailey playing Blake Holloway, an actress cast alongside Miller in the fictional film. Others set to join the project include Tracey Bonner and Samantha Mathis.
