Vidhu's dream project set to roll in Hollywood


Vidhu Vinod Chopra, popularly known as VVC, is all set to roll his dream project titled 'Broken Horses' in Hollywood for which he has roped in Barrie Osborne as the executive producer.


Osborne has worked in Hollywood blockbusters such as 'Apocalypse Now', 'Octopussy', 'Face/Off' and 'The Matrix'. He also won the 'Best Picture Oscar' for 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return Of The King'.

According to the sources, a huge set is being put up in a desert town bordering Mexico and the Unites States. 'Broken Horses' is an English film and will be having western cast and crew. The Shooting of the film is expected to start from September 13.

The 66-year-old producer, Osborne had been living in New Zealand for the past 10 years when he was working on the 'The Lord Of The Rings' trilogy.

Recently, he has moved back to Los Angeles (LA) for Vidhu's latest venture. They have set up a production office on The Lot (West Hollywood), which was earlier housed the Warner Hollywood Studios.

The sources revealed that Fred Roos is the executive producer, who will look after the project and cast, together.

Roos has been the producer of cult films like 'The Godfather Part II' and 'The Godfather Part III', 'The Outsiders' and 'Lost In Translation'. He has also worked with Osborne on 'Apocalypse Now'.

Talking about the crew, Vidhu told sources, “Barrie helps us get the scale of the film right. As for Fred, I met him a few years ago as a student on the sets of 'The Godfather'. He was an inspiration then and is an inspiration even now.”

It seems that Vidhu's script and his passion as a filmmaker helps him to convince the actors to work in the film.

“I am confident that he will assemble a great cast,” Vidhu added.
