It’s August, but it feels like September. Either way, a new school year is comin’ up close, Whether you’ll be pounding the linoleum on the first day, or just justifying a Back-To-School splurge at the mall by driving by the ol’ high school, why not celebrate the winding down of summer and start of cool, lovely weather with Selena Gomez? Yeah, it’s crazy that she’s fully legal now, right? To me, she’ll still be that sweet little witch over on Waverly Place.
That could change with the debut of Getaway, a fun-fest full of car crashes, thrills and mayhem that stars Ms. G, along with Jon Voight and Ethan Hawke. Here’s the official press release for the film; say thank you to the nice PR folks!
“Getaway” is the gritty, heart-pounding action thriller from Warner Bros. Pictures and Dark Castle Entertainment starring Academy Award® nominee Ethan Hawke (“Training Day,” “The Purge,” “Sinister”), actress and international music sensation Selena Gomez (“Springbreakers,” “Wizards of Waverly Place”), and Academy Award® winner Jon Voight (“Coming Home,” the “National Treasure” films) under the direction of Courtney Solomon (“An American Haunting”), who also produced the film.
Former race car driver Brent Magna (Hawke) is pitted against the clock. Desperately trying to save the life of his kidnapped wife, Brent commandeers a custom Ford Shelby GT500 Super Snake, taking it and its unwitting owner (Gomez) on a high-speed race against time, at the command of the mysterious villain holding his wife hostage.
