Tony Scott hops aboard 'Unstoppable'

March 27, 2009 The story follows a rail company that tries frantically to stop an unmanned, half-mile-long freight train carrying enough combustible liquids and poisonous gas to wipe out a nearby city. Scott's "Pelham" stars Denzel Washington and John Travolta in a story centering on passengers on a New York subway train held hostage in return for a ransom. Scott, repped by CAA, is producing "The A-Team" at Fox, for whom he also directed 2004's "Man on Fire."
