According to Paste Magazine, Danny Boyle (“Trainspotting,” “Slumdog Millionaire”) will direct a new movie about the ordeal of Aron Ralston, who amputated his arm to free himself from a large boulder that rolled onto him as he climbed in the Utah mountains. “Christian Colson will produce and Simon Beaufoy is in talks to write the script. 127 Hours will be made by Fox Searchlight, and U.K.’s The Guardian reports that the film will begin shooting early 2010 and released later in the year.”

Ralston recently endorsed a proposal to prohibit extractive development in Forest Service and BLM lands.
