According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sigourney Weaver is in negotiations to join the cast of Columbia Pictures' VANTAGE POINT.

Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox, William Hurt and Forest Whitaker already have signed on to the thriller.

Helmed by Pete Travis from a Barry Levy screenplay, the story chronicles an assassination attempt on the U.S. president (Hurt) and is told from five points of view, unfolding in 15-minute increments. Weaver will play a TV news producer for a CNN-type network who will do anything to get the story.
