THE hunt for Alaska's most infamous serial murderer is about to get the Hollywood treatment.
Academy Award-winning actor Nicolas Cage will star in "Frozen Ground," a movie detailing the police investigation of serial killer Robert Hansen, Variety reported Wednesday. He will play an Alaska State Trooper who investigated the murders.
Filming is scheduled to start in Anchorage on October 10, a second major production filmed in Alaska in the last year. Filming wrapped up last autumn on Drew Barrymore's "Everybody Loves Whales."
Emmett Furla Films is financing the US$27 million Cage project and producing with Amber Entertainment, Variety reported. Messages left for both by The Associated Press weren't immediately returned yesterday.
Hansen, who got the nickname "the Butcher Baker," was convicted in 1984 after confessing to killing 17 women and raping another 30 in a 12-year span.
He received a 461-year sentence and is incarcerated at a state prison in Seward.
