TOM HIDDLESTON, WILLEM DAFOE TO LEAD MOUNT EVEREST EXPEDITION PERIOD SET MOVIE TENZING

   TOM HIDDLESTON TO  
CLIMB MOUNT EVEREST IN TENZING MOVIE
Tom Hiddleston will be Sir Hillary
Tom Hiddleston is set as lead in new adventure movie TENZING about the inspirational life of Sherpa Tenzing Norgay and his summit of Mount Everest in 1953 alongside fellow outsider New Zealander Edmund Hillary. With Hiddleston as Sir Hillary, Willem Dafoe will star as the English expedition leader, Colonel John Hunt. 
 
Tibetan born Tenzing Norgay, alongside New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary, both outsiders on a British Expedition, defied insurmountable odds to achieve what was once thought impossible, reaching the summit of the world’s tallest mountain, Mount Everest. After six previous attempts, Tenzing risked everything for one final venture. He had to navigate treacherous politics and perilous weather as he embarked on the most significant climb of his life. Through it all, he did so with humor, warmth, and generosity towards his fellow climbers, but also deep reverence and respect for the sacred Mother Goddess of his Mountain, Chomolungma. The actor who will play Tenzing has not been cast yet.

  1. 6 attempts? Well, why do people want to climb up Mount Everest? Not sure that's worth the risk..

    1. I agree, it is the stupidest thing ever, we have a man from my city who died there a few years ago he was twenty something. His parents made him a plaque somewhere in the city, but for what? For being that stupid, chasing some silly goal and losing life? Not to mention climbing business is expensive as hell. Beside the trip, equipment etc you also pay somewhere between 100,000 and 200,000$ to Nepal for the license to climb their mountain. Imagine how many hungry mouths you can feed with that money? It is even more difficult for the locals like Tenzing, because they do not have that amount of funds, but then again unlike us their lungs there are genetically different and suited for that air. I have read that due to the amount of oxygen their women cannot even get pregnant above the certain altitude.

  3. I watch all the movies in which Willem Dafoe plays. Next to Jeremy Irons, he is my favorite actor.

  4. You could buy a small house with what you would pay to climb that mountain. The sheer stupidity of it just grates on my nerves.
