Posted by | Ray Cornelius 

Oscar winning-actress and talk show host Whoopi Goldberg is starring in an upcoming World Trade Center drama titled “Nine Eleven.” The veteran television and film star will play one of five people who are trapped in an elevator in the World Trade Center on 9/11. Joining Goldberg is Charlie Sheen, Wood Harris, Olga Fonda and Luis Guzman.

The film is directed by Martin Guigui and is co-written by Steven Golebiowski.

“We are immensely grateful to bring this inspirational story to life. ‘Nine Eleven’ is a highly emotional journey and it took a dynamic bunch to collectively come together to make this unique film happen,” said Guigui. “We are fortunate to have such a gifted cast on board. Both Charlie and Whoopi are native New Yorkers who strongly identify with this story.”

Filming began this week in Long Beach, California.
