#12. The Good Doctor – Lance Daly
Kisses director Lance Daly made a splash with Kisses two years back, that quickly secured him this shot in L.A. project which includes plenty of Sundance alumni in Orlando Bloom, Riley Keough, Taraji P. Henson, Michael Peña and a small cameo from J.K. Simmons. The Good Doctor, a drama thriller would aspire to a Premieres category world preem to be followed by a possible showing in Berlin.
Written by John Enbom, Dr. Martin Ploeck (Orlando Bloom), who has spent his life looking for respect, meets an 18-year-old patient named Diane (Riley Keough), suffering from a kidney infection, and gets a much-needed boost of self-esteem. However, when her health starts improving, Martin fears losing her, so he begins tampering with her treatment, keeping Diane sick and in the hospital right next to him.
* Producers: Orlando Bloom, Dan Etheridge (The Nines) and Jonathan King
