Eco-Warrior John Abraham Producing Film On Tigers
Filed under: animals, film-tv, television — michael @ 3:50 pm
We first discovered Bollywood actor John Abraham about a week ago when he was honored as an ‘Eco Warrior’ by the Earth Matters Foundation. Now, we’re starting to catch wind of a whole bunch of great projects and initiatives he supports.
The latest is this new documentary he’s producing called Return of the Tigers. It should actually probably be called Ruin of the Tigers, because the synopsis doesn’t paint a happy ending.
“The story of the film will revolve around four tigers and the problems faced by them such as the scarcity of preys, the repercussions of tourism and human plundering in animal habitat.”
If it’s anything like Discovery Channel, they’ll all be dead in the end. You know, just like the meerkats they get you attached to and then with stunned horror you watch them all get picked off one-by-one by eagles and wild dogs. Bastards.
The doc is still on the scripting floor, but expect wildlife filmmaker and environmentalist, Mike Pandey to direct. Let’s hope there are still some lions around to participate when it comes time to shoot.
