Ice
Cube
is taking more stepsto ensure his acting career is on the rise, this time signing
on with blockbuster director John Carpenter, and his upcoming
flick "Ghosts Of Mars". The movie will also star Hole
front woman Courtney Love.
The
movie takes place 175 years in the future, in a dusty frontier
mining town on Mars. A small squad of police have been sent to
transfer an extremely dangerous criminal, Desolation Williams,
back to the main administrative Martian city, Chryse. The heroine,
Melanie, is second in command of this squad. What no one realizes
is that mining operations have uncovered –and disturbed– the
ruins of an ancient Martian civilization and unleashed a kind
of spiritual doomsday defense system that will relentlessly destroy
any alien presence (in this case, Earthlings) inhabiting Mars.
The movie is set to begin production in early 2001.
