Look Out! Behind You! The Economy!

Hollywood is wasting no time making movies about the new Big Bad that’s in all the papers. Well, one movie, anyway. In the upcoming film Fortuna, it has taken until the year 2100 for economic crises to wipe out the middle class (figured that would happen much, much sooner) leaving only a rich elite and poor masses who play the titular game to become one of the rich elite.

Dominic Monaghan and Freddy Rodriguez will play two contestants who find out, wouldn’t ya know it, the game has a deep, dark, deadly secret.  Seriously, if you can’t trust the rich elite, who can you trust?

Oh, and global warming figures into this all somehow, too.
