Hilary Swank Set To Fly

Hilary Swank signed on to play aviator Amelia Earhart last year, not much has been heard about it since. Well today it seems things are getting off the ground with the addition of director Mira Nair and a title - Amelia.The film will follow Amelia’s early career, when Amy Guest, a society dame, set up a non-stop flight across the Atlantic and sought a female pilot to make the trip for maximum publicity.

The film’s script is based on a number of Earhart books and was finished before the strike so production should move take off (sorry) on this one!
