MUMBAI: The Hangover star Ed Helms is in negotiations to be roped onboard the thriller movie, Stretch directed by Joe Carnahan.
 
Ed Helms would apparently be co-starring opposite the Insidious star Patrick Wilson in the movie.
 
It has been confirmed that Jason Blum, the producer of the weekend BO shocker, The Purge would be financially backing the thriller project under his Blumhouse production banner.
 
The story revolves around a limo driver nicknamed Stretch played by Patrick Wilson, who is trying to get clean and pay back a debt owed to a bookie when he gets the passenger from hell.
 
The Star Trek star Chris Pine has already been roped in and would play the passenger, who is selling his ledger of criminal associates to the highest bidder.
 
As reported by Hollywood Reporter, Helms is in talks to play a fellow chauffeur at Stretch‘s company, the ideal driver who is a ghost and shows up as Wilson‘s conscience.
 
While the cast has almost been finalised it is reported that the shooting would commence this summer.
