In KEEP COMING BACK young Taylor Ogburn has a problem. He has a ‘very weird heart’ that, whenever things get a bit too much, is prone to go racing off and nearly kill him. As a consequence he has led a very sheltered life, and though he’s eighteen years old – he’s really never lived a day…
After suffering yet another near fatal episode, Taylor meets the stunning Krystal (Jovovich) a recovering alcoholic ex-stripper, with all the right attributes to get his heart racing again. And after years of living quietly, Taylor decides that now’s the time to grow up and confront the danger embedded in his chest.
Instantly and deeply in love, he follows Krystal in to an AA meeting, where she mistakes Taylor for a recovering alcoholic. Needing every possible edge he can get in order to have a shot with the woman of his dreams, Taylor goes along with it. Playing down his straight, preppy persona and playing up his new tough damaged one. With a little help from his older brother Campbell and Krystal’s son Bobby, Taylor finally starts living life to the fullest – but can Taylor’s shaky heart hold on long enough for him to finally learn what love is?
Production is set to start early 2009 in GA, USA.
KEEP COMING BACK is being produced by Rachel Rothman, Tucker Tooley and Dan Keston. Content Film has international sales rights.
Macy said: “I feel excited and confident as we begin this production. I’m directing a brilliant script by Will Aldis, and hopefully I won’t screw it up. I have the amazing talent of Milla Jovovich in a role that she was born to play. I also have my old friend Steve Buscemi playing the role of Satan. Just the thought of that makes me laugh. This film is absolutely hilarious, but it is also profound. This is the kind of film I would love to see.”
