Harrison Fords Takes on "Crowley"

Most actors would kill for the prolific career that Harrison Ford has been blessed with. After all, this is the guy who has had the good fortune of playing film icons like Han Solo, Rick Deckard, and Indiana Jones, characters beloved by movie buffs young and old. The actor, enjoying a revival of sorts due to the success of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, will next star as a scientist in Crowley for CBS Films.

Crowley is based on the true story of John Crowley, who, with his wife Aileen, enlists the help of a researcher, played by Ford, to help them find a cure for a rare genetic disorder that has befallen their two children. Director Tom Vaughan, who just helmed the hit comedy What Happens in Vegas... will direct the film, inspired by both a book called The Cure as well as a Wall Street Journal article on the subject. Production will commence shortly.
