The dramatic operation to rescue 12 boys and their coach from a cave in northern Thailand has caught the interest of Pure Flix Entertainment, which is out to secure movie rights to the story.<\/span><\/div>\n
The banner\u2019s CEO Michael Scott on Tuesday took to Facebook and posted a video to make the announcement. The film will be co-produced by Adam Smith of Kaos Entertainment and will carry a budget of $30 million to $60 million, reports The Hollywood Reporter. The Thai cave rescue case is about the massive operation conducted to save the 12 boys trapped in Thailand\u2019s Tham Luang Nang Non Cave.<\/span><\/div>\n
Scott has been doing research in the rescue areas for several days. <\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cThe bravery and heroism I\u2019ve witnessed is incredibly inspiring, so, yes, this will be a movie for us,\u201d Scott told The Hollywood Reporter during a phone call from Thailand.<\/span><\/div>\n
Wanting to create the inspiring film, Scott said: \u201cI have spoken to some of the 90 divers involved in the rescue mission and some of the family members of boys who were trapped in the cave, though not the boys themselves as they are still hospitalised.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n
For Scott, the story is personal as he lost his wife\u2019s friend Saman Kunan while volunteering as a rescuer.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cThis isn\u2019t just about a movie, it\u2019s about honouring everybody involved, including the soldier who died,\u201d Scott added.<\/span><\/div>\n
