AceShowbiz - Salma Hayek and Owen Wilson are teaming up for a far-fetched sci-fi love story.
Directed by "Another Earth" filmmaker Mike Cahill, "Bliss" will focus on a recently-divorced man who falls for an enchanting homeless woman, who is convinced that the polluted, broken world around them is not real.
Hayek's character, Isabel, believes they are living in an ugly, harsh world simulation inside of the beautiful, peaceful "real" world of bliss, and while Wilson's Greg is doubtful at first, he eventually discovers there may be some truth to the wild conspiracy theory.
"Working with this brilliant cast is a dream come true," said Cahill in a statement. "And we couldn't be more thrilled to be making this with Amazon Studios. As the industry continues to evolve, Amazon proves to be taking the most exciting risks on films with ambitious artistic goals that also aim to reach wide audiences. I feel so grateful to have our film 'Bliss' included among their next round of groundbreaking works."
