Drew Barrymore, together with John Krasinski of “The Office” will co-star in a new Universal film called “Whales.” The movie is based on the real-life rescue of the three California gray whales that got trapped in the Arctic Circle in 1988.
Drew will play the role of a Greenpeace activist involved in the rescue, and John will play the small town journalist that broke the story. Directing the film will be Ken Kwapis, who’s credits include “Parks and Recreation,” “The Office,” and “He’s Just Not That Into You.”
Seems like perfect casting! Might be some tricky filming on the water with whales though. (?)
