In what will be her first acting role since leaving network TV’s most-watched series NCIS, Cote De Pablo has been cast in The 33, the feature film based on the 2010 rescue of 33 Chilean miners after being trapped 69 days in the Copiapo gold and copper mine more than half an mile below the earth’s surface. Antonio Banderas, Juliette Binoche and Rodrigo Santoro are among those already aboard the ensemble cast of the pic, which is now in production in Chile and Colombia with Patricia Riggen directing.
De Pablo, who was born in Chile and whose mother still lives there, will play a wife of one of the trapped miners, who became international stars following their dramatic rescue that played out live worldwide. Her scenes will be shot in Chile’s Atacama Desert near where the actual event, and the subsequent rescue efforts took place.

ReplyDeleteWhy do we always have to make a movie about some real life event? Can't Hollywood come up with anything original?
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I love her and this is great despite the fact that I miss her on NCIS.
ReplyDeleteAnd I imagine she may be gratified by playing a role in a story that connects her a bit with Chile and her heritage.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Hollywood should totally stay away from any and all actual human experience.
